Magee 1866 have created a workwear power suit from luxury, natural Donegal tweed …

Oversized yet sleek suits are the workwear choice of next season for editors and style mavens alike. Take a style cue from designer Patricia McDyre who has designed a version for Magee 1866, the Donegal-based, fifth generation family business best known for its luxurious finely woven fabrics. “For AW19, I wanted to launch a workwear power suit that only Magee could make. My first port of call was the mill to find a luxury, natural fabric for the suit. I chose a compact wool and cashmere fabric and briefed the team on the colour palette for the retro Glen check I had in mind,” says designer McDyre. The silhouette is dramatic; an elongated, oversized jacket and high-waisted trousers with an ultra-wide hem. In stores this month. Magee 1866, South Anne Street, Dublin 2.
