In honour of its noteworthy 50th anniversary milestone, BONIA has not only appointed TWICE&rsquo;s Nayeon as its brand ambassador, but it has also unveiled the Spring/Summer 2024 collection with muted tones and an eclectic blend of materials and fabrications. Standout pieces include the Beatrice Short Skirt with the Beatrice Crop Long Sleeves Knit Top ensemble, which highlights the brand&rsquo;s classic style, and a variety of bags that draw attention to the exceptional craftsmanship. Here, our cover model, Karolina Krawczyk, struts her stuff wearing the latest pieces from the collection.

Translating precious memories of the past into the present, BONIA&rsquo;s spring/summer 2024 collection pays tribute to its founder&rsquo;s 50-year story &mdash; from humble beginnings in Melaka and Penang to 1970s inspirations of an Italian sojourn.

The culture, architecture and heritage encountered in Bologna, Milan, a small town imbued with the richness, beauty and passion of Italy, influenced the birth of BONIA.

Describe your personal style in three words. Edgy, accessing, flexible.
Why do you think a BONIA bag is a go-to fashion accessory that every woman can&rsquo;t live without? I think that there should be a stylish bag that is perfect for any occasion in everyone&rsquo;s wardrobe, not only for women but also for men.
What is your most memorable fashion moment? That&rsquo;d be the first fashion show I ever saw, and I remember it fondly. The concept and presentation were spectacular, with the models&rsquo; faces obscured by nude stockings. It was awesome!

If you were only allowed one ensemble for the rest of your life, what would it be? Wide-leg pants, tank top, leather jacket, and of course, jewellery.
Do you have a favourite colour? Yes, that would be black. It&rsquo;s universal and appropriate for any situation. It also allows you to create fascinating ensembles by experimenting with the structure, material and layering more freely.
What is your must-have fashion item? A good-looking belt.&nbsp;

In the realm of fashion finesse, the BONIA Marzia women's belt stands out as a must-have accessory, effortlessly elevating any outfit of the season. Whether you're dressing up tailored trousers for the office or adding flair to casual cutoff shorts, this belt adds a feminine touch to your look.

What is the most unique piece of clothing or accessory you own? I don&rsquo;t think I have anything really unique but most of my clothes and accessories are thrifted.
What is your favourite fashion decade? It&rsquo;s definitely the 1980s! It was a decade of cultural revolution and expression of individualism, punk, and grunge, which I love.
What is your secret to looking confident and poised on the runway? Having a positive frame of mind, good music, and an energy level &ndash; and before a show, I&rsquo;d look at my phone wallpaper of myself when I was with a huge smile and think to myself, &ldquo;I cannot disappoint her.&rdquo;
How do you stay inspired? I enjoy browsing through inspiring social media accounts on Instagram, Pinterest and different fashion channels.

What is your favourite fashion city? Tokyo! Firstly, it&rsquo;s because I love Japan as a country, and secondly, it&rsquo;s because Tokyo gives me a cool, edgy vibe, which I really like.
Can you share a fashion tip that everyone should know? Have fun bandana in different ways and go thrifting to add flavours to your wardrobe.
What is your favourite fashion quote or motto? &ldquo;People will stare. Make it worth their while.&rdquo; &ndash; Harry Winston
What advice would you give to aspiring fashion models? Stop caring about what people say or how they look at you. You cannot live to please everyone else.
