Autumn Winter is where Magee 1866 come into their own, it’s a time to celebrate their heritage and design across luxury natural fabrics. The collection crosses over from tailoring to casual and elements flow from previous collections allowing the wearer to style pieces from season to season together. This is ever important to creating a more balanced and sustainable brand – a seasonless message.

Pieces are designed to work across various looks, there are two colour stories. The first works around an urban theme – charcoal and slate greys, ash, navies, indigo and midnight blues, timeless black with subtly infused tones of mulberry, nightshade purple and chocolate brown.

Magee 1866 also embrace their rich autumn and winter landscape – a never ending variety of greens – moss, grass, forest, teal, rich peaty browns, minke, oat, camels, deep reds, burnt oranges and a hint of rose pink. The colour stories are designed to work across each other. Their iconic Donegal tweeds take on sophisticated tailoring in the suit (Finn suit £605) & blazer, (Easky £389 and Finn £409) the coat and jacket collection showcases these natural wool and wool blend fabrics at their best – long swing coats, (Corrib £585) double breasted nautical inspired peacoats (Fintra £519) and casual shirt jackets. (Melvin £495) The weekend elements of the collection follow through from their tweeds, luxurious woollen knitwear, (Bluestack £119 and Oisin roll neck £119) timeless cotton chinos, soft cotton flannel, Liberty Made fabrics & Irish linen shirts (Kilbeg £109 and Dunross £129) and quilted gilets.

The raw and natural beauty of Donegal serves as the perfect backdrop for the Magee 1866 Autumn Winter photo shoot, with all that inspires this iconic Irish brand being captured on location. From the rugged landscape to the unique charm of its people, Donegal's spirit is embedded deep within the fabric of Magee 1866's collections. Magee 1866 have always been, by default, a 'slow fashion' brand with a focus on natural fibres and high-quality products and while they work on subtle updates each season, each piece is designed to wear now and for the future.
