# Artful Tapestry Attire Manuscript Magazine's Art Issue Features Cover Star Matthieu Gregoire By Jana Pijak | Published 2014-09-03 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/matthieu-gregoire References: [fuckingyoung.es](http://fuckingyoung.es/matthieu-gregoire-paul-scala/) & [manuscriptdaily](http://www.manuscriptdaily.com/) Matthieu Gregoire is the cover star for Manuscript Magazine's captivating Art Issue. The model is captured by photographer Paul Scala and outfitted by wardrobe stylist Jonathan Ailwood. Jonathan dresses the star in a range of eccentric wardrobe staples that boast intricately crafted details. The fashions featured in Manuscript Magazine's Art Issue include tapestry-inspired pieces from Maison Martin Margiela’s ‘Artisanal’ collection. The Fall 2014 line's standout looks are its artfully printed coats that resemble classic canvases and carpet tapestries. Other memorable looks from the collection are its jeweled mask accessories that completely conceal model Matthieu Gregoire's face when worn. Overall, the concept of wearable art is very present in this series of portraits that blurs the lines between fashion and craft. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.9/10 - Popularity: 82% | Activity: 56% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/stylephotography) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Eccentric Wardrobe Staples:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Designing and producing clothing pieces with intricately crafted details that blur the lines between fashion and art. - **Tapestry-inspired Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Creating fashion pieces that incorporate tapestry-inspired prints and patterns, adding a unique artistic element to clothing. - **Artful Masks and Accessories:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Developing unique mask accessories that not only showcase fashion but also serve as artistic statement pieces. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Combining traditional fashion design with artistic elements to create visually striking and boundary-pushing clothing collections. - **Textile Manufacturing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporating innovative techniques and materials to produce tapestry-inspired textiles that can be used for clothing and interior design. - **Accessories and Jewelry:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Designing and producing unique mask accessories and jewelry pieces that combine fashion and art in wearable forms. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Wearable Art Streetwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a-days-march-1.md) - [Body Artwork-Inspired Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/body-tattoo.md) - [Avant-Garde High Streetwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hm-x-glenn-martens.md) - [Experimental Fall Wardrobe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khaotique-noir.md) - [Avant-Garde Street Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/day-3-capsule-2.md) - [Multimedia Artist Menswear Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/madewell-x-one-of-these-days.md) - [Archive-Inspired Retro Luxe Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tattoo-collection.md) - [Identity-Exploring Clothing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shapes-we-take.md) - [Body Paint Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miley-cyrus-maison-margiela.md)
