Summary
COI synopsis: One of the designers whose clothes were on show in ‘British Menswear Month’ was Australian Paul Howie, now living in London. He’s unique in that he designs highly successful fashions not only for men, but for women too - and exports them to the USA, Canada, Australia and Japan. This report previews some of the clothes in his current collection - which will soon be appearing overseas.
