Soft, effortless and soaked in ‘70s-inspired femininity ✨
“Amie” from @bonneyandfrance captures the beauty of hair that feels lived-in, loose and completely unforced — inspired by the golden glow of Paris and London style in the 1970s. 💫
Shot on film, the collection brings a timeless warmth to every image, celebrating texture, movement and understated cool over fast-moving trends.
A dreamy dose of creative inspiration waiting for you inside the May issue. 🤍
