Sometimes flowers just aren't appropriate - allergies, venue restrictions, or wanting to give a gift that's pretty but still practical. Bouquet Bouquet makes useful items into what looks like a flower, but when you're tired of looking at it, you can disassemble it into usable components. The Classic Baby Bouquet, shown here, is composed of a sleepsuit with matching vest, hat and mittens made of organic cotton, a facecloth, premium soap and five pairs of socks. £50. To get a first-hand look, visit the UK's Biggest Baby Show October 20-22 at Earls Court. [GT]
