Margaret Howell fashion show

Make-up and hair stylists ready a model before the couturier Margaret Howell's Fashion Week show in the company's retail flagship and design studio at 34 Wigmore Street, Central London England. The young beauty has her lips dabbed with tissue to stop her lipstick from smudging. The hairdresser pins her braided hair in a whirl on her head and in the background, other freelance stylists busy themselves in the frantically busy room to get the show on the road. Howell is one of Britain's more understated of couture brands alongside more flamboyant personalities. Howell admits to being "inspired by the methods by which something is made .. enjoying the tactile quality of natural fabrics such as tweeds, linen and cotton in a relaxed, natural and lived in look."
