Margaret Howell

Mar 2026

The Margaret Howell F/W 26 lookbook is a masterclass in quiet confidence, reinforcing the brand's enduring commitment to functional luxury and clean-lined design. Captured through the lens of photographer Letty Schmiterlow, the collection leans into the label's signature utilitarian elegance, presenting a series of portraits that celebrate the intersection of refined tailoring and everyday ease. Across a sequence of minimalist studio captures, the imagery channels an understated sophistication, utilizing a palette of deep navy, olive, charcoal, and crisp white to define the season. The execution relies on high-key lighting and a balance of studio strobe and natural light to emphasize the rich textures of wool, crisp cotton, and soft leather. Casting director Simone Schofer assembles a diverse ensemble of talent, including Joe Bottomer, Lammy Ajibola, Linn Noach, Tes Linnenkoper, and Tijs van der Gun, whose relaxed, grounded presence brings an approachable, lifestyle-driven feel to the high-end editorial work. The collection focuses on thoughtful layering—from ribbed fingerless gloves and striped scarves to structured trench coats—highlighting the impeccable craftsmanship that has become synonymous with the house. By stripping away extraneous artifice, this lookbook functions as a precise study of form and fabric, offering a composed, timeless vision that honors the architectural nature of contemporary menswear and womenswear.
