Drawing inspiration from childhood, the white coat is accented with vibrant scribbles and illustrations of everything from buttons and sleeve buckles to pocket piping, thread detailing and a hanging waist belt. The garment also boasts other fun accents like a floral keychain and earbuds that peak out of its illustrated pockets. In addition to her Scribble Trench Coat, Mira Mikati creates other [vibrant statement pieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a-days-march-1) for the season ahead including embroidered slip-on shoes and scribbled overalls with an illustration of a pocket filled with paint brushes. The designer's latest collection is playful and storybook-themed thanks to its [childlike art work](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moonmin) that embodies sophistication when paired with structured and timeless silhouettes. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.5/10 - Popularity: 46% | Activity: 80% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Scribble-inspired Fashion:** Opportunity for designers to incorporate child-like artwork and doodles into high-end fashion pieces - **Trompe L’œil Detailing:** Incorporating optical illusions and artful detailing in fashion design to create unique and playful pieces - **Storybook-themed Collections:** Designing fashion collections inspired by classic storybook illustrations and whimsical, child-like themes ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** Opportunity for high-end fashion brands to incorporate more playful and creative elements into their designs - **Art and Illustration:** Opportunity for illustrators and artists to collaborate with fashion designers to bring unique designs to life - **Retail:** Opportunity for curated retail spaces to showcase and feature playful, storybook-inspired fashion collections ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Architectural Leather Jackets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rudsaks-cassie-sb.md) - [Boxy Botanical Outerwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/garden-jacket.md) - [Luxe Leather Trenchcoats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/leather-trenchcoat.md) - [Genderless Outerwear Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sujitha-shivajothi.md) - [Reimagined Studded Trench Coats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/comme-des-garons-3.md) - [Versatile Summer-Ready Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marmot-1.md) - [Spring-Centric Outerwear Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/namacheko-1.md) - [Versatile Sculptural Outerwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/transhabit-collection.md) - [Luxe Cartoon-Adorned Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moonmin.md)
