The Manual Review

Dec 2025

The Menswear Edit for The Manual Review presents a modern exploration of layered sartorial styling. Through a series of high-key studio portraits, the editorial captures a blend of structured tailoring and casual elements, focusing on the interplay of texture, color-blocking, and intricate fabric weights. Photographer Mathieu Rainaud employs clean, soft lighting against neutral backdrops to emphasize the precision of the ensembles. Creative direction by Juan Duque and Nima Habibzadeh guides the visual narrative, which features model Pierrick Grégoire in a variety of deconstructed and classic layered looks. Fashion editor and stylist Roberto Piu coordinates the garment combinations, while hair styling by Natsumi Ebiko and casting direction by Anita Bitton and Richard Nguyen complete the editorial production.
