Fashion designer Margaret Howell is to open one of her MHL. stores at Coal Drops Yard, the new Heatherwick Studio designed shopping area in London’s King’s Cross.
The store will be the third location for the designer’s second line following previous openings in Marylebone and Shoreditch.
Due to open this autumn, the store will be housed within two arches adjacent to the Regent’s Canal and will offer both menswear and womenswear. The MHL. line includes a range of basics and sportswear that compliment Howell’s mainline collection.
