Bush Tomato Red Scrunchie - Aboriginal Art

Each Bonita piece is carefully handmade right here in Melbourne by our small, passionate team. We don’t mass produce—we craft with purpose. Every stitch is a little reminder that comfort, beauty, and care matter. When you shop with Bonita, you're supporting a locally made, slow fashion brand that puts real people first.

Bonita was born from our founder Macarena’s own experience with breast cancer. After struggling to find headwear that was both soft and stylish during treatment, she decided to create her own. Every piece is designed with lived experience in mind—made to support women emotionally and physically through life’s tougher seasons.

We proudly employ women from migrant and refugee backgrounds—providing stable, empowering, and flexible work opportunities. When you wear Bonita, you’re not just investing in a beautiful piece—you’re helping create jobs and independence for women who deserve every opportunity to thrive.

A portion of every sale goes directly to breast cancer research here in Australia. Giving back is at the heart of Bonita, and it’s our way of supporting the women and families still navigating their journey. Your order helps us contribute to a cause that means the world to us.

All Bonita headwear is made with soft, natural materials like cotton and rayon—perfect for sensitive scalps or all-day wear. They’re breathable, lightweight, and kind to skin. No synthetic itches, no pressure points—just pure, cloud-like comfort.

Our community means everything to us. Thousands of women across Australia (and beyond) have fallen in love with Bonita—and their reviews say it all. From cancer warriors to fashion lovers, so many women tell us the same thing: "This headwear helped me feel like me again."
