A student at the [London College of Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Este-Lauder-Companies-Announced), Arena Page has created a fashion collection that centers on mathematics and geometry.

Her debut fashion line, inspired by The Mobius Strip (a single-sided surface), is an exploration in geometry and the relationship between math and beauty, featuring modern and futuristic orgami-like cuts and silhouettes. Using [3D modeling](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portalm-x-virtual-fashion-exhibition), Page creates her design, but subsequently "flattens" it into a 2D image, from which a pattern is made on paper and fabric, and then combined together to create a 3D form. The process goes from a 3D design to a 2D one, then back again to 3D, and in this way, as FashioningTech.com points out, the designer is able to make designs that look exceedingly intricate and complex using only a few pattern pieces.
