We’ve had our first burst of spring-like sunshine this week, so it feels good to be trying on the SS25 look books with “sure, I can put on this quickly” eyes. As standard, I head straight to Margaret Howell; not just for new-in eye sweet, however for easy styling tweaks to utilise on my present arsenal of tailor-made trousers, light-weight knits, blazers, and shirts.
Margaret Howell SS25 is giving a ‘refined slop’** edge to her standard boyish separates, so I’m taking inspo from the double shirts, low-slung skinny belts, dishevelled shorts and wrinkly socks.
Why does this work?
One thing to do with the magic of the combination. The dishevelled socks offset the in any other case polished two-button blazer and starched shirts, though I might swap the nostalgic sandals for Derbys or penny loafers*.
A sloppy half-tuck works finest when it’s teamed with pristine crease-front trousers, particularly when a bridle leather-based belt is a part of the equation. And as for the shorts – I love the shorts! – the oversize Dad’s Military proportions lend themselves to slim or slouchy tops, however the belt undoubtedly helps so as to add finesse, as will equally refined equipment – hold a silk sq. scarf*, metal watch* and darkish aviator shades* on standby.
**No disrespect to Margaret Howell, ‘slop‘ refers back to the phrase du jour in design circles
