The story begins
with the family
Thomas learnt his craft in Bonpoint, which had been founded by his parents Marie-France and Bernard Cohen. Irene, his wife, joined him, working in the style office.
In the course of their travels, they planned a new future by dreaming of a line dedicated to children, where basics went hand in hand with a timeless spirit, spiced with colours and fun-filled ideas.
In 2000, the french artist Sophie Cuvelier created the Bonton logo.
