Inspired by ancient Chinese philosophy yin-yang on finding balance in contrasts
SINGAPORE, APRIL 2024 – Following Love, Bonito’s recent assortment revamp, the brand is launching its first capsule collection to complement the brand’s core Signatures and Staples lines. The launch takes inspiration from the ancient Chinese philosophy yin-yang, which embraces the interconnectedness of complementary contrasts. This collection is a juxtaposition of looks where masculine meets feminine, and where dark blends with light.
The Balance of Yin and Yang
The beauty of the collection is encapsulated in its versatility to suit multiple occasions. The Floral Tie Back Column Midi Dress comes in a column silhouette, with an elegant floral print and adjustable straps that tie into ribbons at the back. She can be worn for special occasions with heels, or on the flip side, more casual brunches with the Kaia Classic Denim Jacket from the Staples collection and a trusty pair of flats.
An alternative floral style is the Padded Floral Peplum Camisole Top. Designed in a peplum silhouette, you can be your sweet and girly self in sweet cornflower blue, or sensual and regal in black. The padded camisole is body-sculpting in all the right places, and can be styled with the reliable Denim Straight Leg Jeans, or Willow Classic Tailored Shorts from the Staples collection.
The Cotton Panelled Camisole Top is likely to be a top favourite with its structural yet feminine look. Serving fun and flirty all day, her delicate seams detail with lace trims are well complemented with functional adjustable ties. Complete the outfit with tailored Tailored Straight Leg Pants, which exudes soft structure with its breathable cellulosic fabric while still serving a work-appropriate straight leg formal look. For a more sophisticated chic fit, opt for the one-piece Cotton Trapeze Midaxi Dress and layer on the Knit Metal Clasp Cardigan, thoughtfully designed with a touch of statement hardware.
Casual Elegance at Work
The capsule collection is also easy to mix and match with timeless pieces from the Signatures collection. The Lace Cut Out Camisole Top comes with a delicate “peek-a-boo” lace design that can be styled corporate with the iconic Rachel Ruched-Ready Blazer and Yuna Tailored High Rise Pants. You can also try on the Belted Pencil Midi Skirt and Abstract Flare Midaxi Skirt from the capsule collection, which offer either structure or flow depending on your vibe of the day.
