Cover Letter and Resume Design/Format for Hedge Funds

Is anyone here familiar with 'Novo Resume'?

They offer various creative designs for CVs and cover letters. Are any of these suitable for a senior/executive level hedge-fund job application? If so, which ones?

Alternatively, would you suggest sticking to standard plain format for Hedge Fund and/or IB job applications?
