Geometric is in. The trend graced New York fashion weeks Spring/Summer '09 runways, in more ways then one.
Margo Selby, is a woven textile designer (award winning, i may add), and friend of my mums. Owning a studio/shop in London, Margo's work consists of striking fun colours, three-dimensional structure and, of course, geometric patterns. Focusing mainly on accessories for yourself (bags, scarves) and for your home, all the fabrics are made on a handloom in her London studio; where you can visit and see the products made, right before your eyes.
Combining the colours blue and orange (very in!), this gorgeous Rivchic Baguette cushion (£55) could be a centre piece for any living space. 
Notable geometric silhouettes strode down the runway. Taking that step ahead in fashion were designers such as; Phillip Lim (3.1), Michael Kors and Calvin Klein.
Prints and patterns also championed geometric, along with over-sized features and embellishment. Marc Jacobs and Badgeley Mischka were right on point.
With this being a smoking hot trend, i thought id look closer to home, to add a bit geometric to my wardrobe...and i knew exactly where to look.

Or how about a coin purse (£30), as a gift for someone else, or yourself. My favourite is the Mabel Purse (unsurprisingly popular), featuring luxe earthy colours...and if your in the mood, why not getting the matching cushion?!
Selby caters for that fashionista, and their family; female relatives - purse? clutch bag? scarf? cushion?, or for your dad - he'd love that bow tie! Oh go on, treat yourself!
