Article: A Shared Universe of (Re)invention


At BONASTRE, we believe in the power of collaboration, viewing our bags through the unique aesthetic and universe of the artists we partner with.
This season, we are honored to share the effortless, quintessentially British elegance and flegme of Sonny Hall.
Often seen as a 21st-century Rimbaud—a romantic, slightly punk poète maudit—Sonny Hall is a multi-talented force. He launched his career in 2019 by self-publishing his poetry collection, The Blues Comes With Good News, before founding his own publishing house, Blue Beggar Books, a year later. An accomplished painter, actor, and model, his style is at once anachronistic and modern, timeless and punk, perfectly echoing the BONASTRE spirit.

This collaboration is rooted in a shared philosophy: the need to constantly reinvent and "re-invent the world." This aligns with the designer's creative process—a creation that emerges from a meditative state and a constant evolution. More significantly, it resonates with BONASTRE’s commitment to embracing the fluidity and complexity of identity.
The brand aims to break down barriers, fostering a safe space that transcends intolerance and uniformity. This appetite for progress challenges societal norms and nurtures a community of free thinkers. This is creation for a better world.
