Always like MH's stuff but never got around to actually buying any but the Fair Isle sweater that Ry'on featured the other day is a winner - http://www.inventorymagazine.com/upd...e-sweater.html

I don't know why people say her stuff is lux when it's not and while it's solid I don't find the quality anything great. Had a ton of loose threads on the shirt I bought last year and the placket is crooked.

^ Never had any such issues. Quality is high on all items I have had/have, however mostly mainline. I still think it's a little over priced. Huge fan of her outerwear and some of the knits this season are beautiful.

Ordered it from uk since sw was out of my size and couldn't be bothered to return it.

Actually wore it tonight and damn if the crooked placket is annoying.

Any input on the plimsole? Seems like a good summer beater.

Might be a long shot asking this here, but figure I'd try:

I'm not too interested in Margaret Howell's designs for myself, but I think her women's lines fit my girlfriend's style perfectly. Does anyone know of other designers with women's collections similar to Howell's?

Christophe Lemaire has a bit of the same feel.

I swear there is/was another Margaret Howell thread, but I could only find this one.

Has anyone seen the MHL Slim Chinos in Indigo, size XL on sale anywhere? I know they still have them on the Howell website, but I was hoping to pick them up on sale.
