Margaret Howell

Searching for the most beautiful homeware, cookingware and interior design? Margaret Howell might be your best bet. Wow, everything is very beautiful in here. Another great about this store is that you able to buy things in a very large price range making it easier to afford. The staff can be quite unfriendly and rude.

Belle boutique sur Wigmore, proposant de la mode masculine (un peu) et féminine (surtout), mais aussi une sélection de livres d’art et de design, et des articles de déco (de très belles théières en particulier, five o’clock oblige) et quelques meubles.
Une sélection éclective et de très bon goût, qui donne son âme à l’endroit…

This light and bright shop is the perfect setting to house Margaret Howells casually chic and unfussy collection. Alongside her clothing, the shop has been furnished with old and retro pieces of furniture and homeware. The shop is a pleasure to visit and look around while the clothes, quite Parisian in style are beautifully made but do come with a slightly hefty price tag.
As well as being her flagship store, the building is also home to the Margaret Howell studio. There is a real creative energy here and if you can afford a several hundred pounds for a cotton smock shirt then this shop guarantees style.

Margaret Howell is chic and cool fashion boutique. The store houses the understated womenswear and menswear collections, as well as showcasing the vintage furniture collection. It’s what you’ll expect from most boutiques! However prices can be on the high side so best to go if you have £££ on you. The best buy is the short sleeve cotton gingham shirt for £165. There are other few items which are a must have there, so best to go on payday:)

MH is one of those up-​market, strictly non-​bling, timeless designers. Think Ralph Lauren, or Meryl Streep’s wardrobe in Out of Africa-​crisp linens, vintage knits, immaculately cut skirts and trousers. Although Howell has been around for a good long while, her stuff never looks datedand nor should it-​for clothes that are quietly confident and do not scream designer or Gucci you are required to pay some hefty prices. Quite unelaborate knits start at over £400 and shirts at around the £200 mark.
There seem to be few outlets for Howell (there used to be a concession in Selfridges which I think has gone) and there is no doubt that you are getting unique almost one-​off classics, but be prepared to pay dearly for this rather unostentatious, Ritzy and conservative designer.
Seriously elegant, and seriously pricey.
