Margaret Howell fashion show

A Japanese buyer watches a male model walk the catwalk of couturier Margaret Howell's Fashion Week show rehearsal in the company's retail flagship and design studio at 34 Wigmore Street, Central London England. Making notes on his clipboard as he looks at the striding man, the audience has yet to arrive so we see a largely empty scene that usually serves as a shop. Howell is one of Britain's more understated of couture brands alongside more flamboyant personalities. Howell admits to being "inspired by the methods by which something is made .. enjoying the tactile quality of natural fabrics such as tweeds, linen and cotton in a relaxed, natural and lived in look."
