Smart Proportions–Charcoal, navy and black contribute to a focused color palette that dresses Margaret Howell’s fall/winter 2012 collection. Designing clothes with contemporary proportions, the usual suspects are infused with silhouettes that resonate a natural casualness. Trousers and simple shirting are relaxed with a loose fit that propels the collection towards interesting layers. Boxy and slightly oversized, jackets join slouchy sweaters for an overall aesthetic that turns a smart tidy wardrobe into a fall collection with intelligent quirk.
