Bohème x Bonlook: Riviera-Chic Eyewear Meets Timeless Bohème Style
Montreal’s style insiders, take note: the Bohème x Bonlook collaboration is redefining eyewear as a cornerstone of fashion, launching January 22, 2026. This limited-edition Riviera-Chic capsule merges BonLook’s modern, design-driven frames with Bohème’s vintage-infused aesthetic sun-bleached nostalgia, effortless silhouettes, and a hint of Mediterranean wanderlust. For Best Kept MTL readers, it’s more than eyewear; it’s an accessory that articulates personality, cultural sensibility, and sartorial elegance.
Nostalgia and Modernity in Every Frame
BonLook has always championed eyewear as a vehicle for self-expression, and pairing with Bohème, the slow-fashion brand founded by Sarah Shabacon, elevates this ethos. Bohème’s aesthetic, rooted in 60s and 70s silhouettes, sun-washed palettes, and carefully curated vintage references, translates seamlessly into frames that feel lived-in, whimsical, and undeniably chic.
Sarah Shabacon says it best: “Vintage eyewear carries personality, frames that feel like they have a story. This collection is sun-faded, carefree, a little nonchalant, and full of character.” This philosophy resonates with Montreal’s lifestyle-conscious fashion scene: effortless, conscious, and unmistakably personal.
The Capsule Collection: Eyewear as Statement
The Riviera-Chic capsule comprises three exclusive frames, each steeped in retro glamour:
-
Dune > Oversized cat-eye frames, available in optical or sunglass versions, blending sophistication with playful flair.
-
Sonne > Sunglasses in tortoiseshell or wax paper frames with a warm brown tint, evoking sun-bleached Riviera afternoons.
-
Sombra > Bold orange-tinted wax paper frames, a striking accessory for those seeking a confident, unconventional look.
Inspired by jet-set Mediterranean summers, these frames recall the elegance of Riviera icons while maintaining a contemporary edge. Complementary Bohème scarves, bucket hats, and beachwear amplify the effect, creating ensembles that feel curated yet effortless, perfect for lifestyle-driven fashion enthusiasts in Montreal.
Tania Fugulin, BonLook’s Creative Director, notes, “This collection invites people to play with style, embrace personality, and capture that carefree vacation feeling, no matter the season.” In Montreal, where cultural sophistication meets street-level cool, these frames become more than eyewear, they are a lens through which style and individuality are amplified.
Fashion, Lifestyle, and Montreal Vibes
Montrealers have a refined eye for design, and Bohème x Bonlook speaks to that aesthetic sensibility. It’s a celebration of individuality, retro charm, and curated style. Much like the Boheme fashion collections we’ve covered on Best Kept Montreal, this capsule champions pieces that feel authentic, intentional, and elevated.
Whether paired with Bohème’s sun-bleached textiles or a downtown chic ensemble, these frames are versatile, transformative, and unapologetically stylish. They invite the wearer to curate a look that is both personal and cinematic, a nod to effortless elegance that resonates on the streets of Montreal and beyond.
Limited Edition, Distinctly Canadian
The Boheme x Bonlook Riviera-Chic Capsule will be available January 22, 2026, at select BonLook stores across Canada and online at BonLook.com. Each frame embodies the ethos of slow-fashion and conscious production while offering a modern reinterpretation of classic silhouettes. With this collection, eyewear transcends its utilitarian function to become a key element of cultural expression and lifestyle articulation.
Final Word
For Montreal’s fashion-conscious, design-savvy audience, Bohème x Bonlook is more than a collaboration, it’s a manifesto of style. Nostalgia meets modernity, effortless glamour meets intentional design, and eyewear becomes a conduit for self-expression. This is a collection that elevates everyday life into a Riviera-inspired tableau, inviting Montrealers to articulate their style with confidence, creativity, and a wink of vintage charm.
