About us
Love, Bonito is Southeast Asia’s leading womenswear brand, built with a mission to empower women to find confidence through style. Incorporated in 2010 in Singapore, we’ve since grown from a humble online startup into a multi-channel business with over 20 stores and counting across Asia and a thriving online presence.

We move fast, stay curious, and take bold bets on ideas and people we believe in. Here, you’ll find a community that challenges you to grow, trusts you to lead, and celebrates you for being you.
