Abstract

Bonia is a well-known luxury fashion brand for leatherwear, footwear, apparel and accessories. This research focuses on the familiarity and the likelihood of Malaysians to purchase the product and the perception of the brand personality of Bonia by adapting the personality dimensions theory as the main pillar for measurement. The primary data for this research were collected through an online survey. According to the findings, the majority of Malaysians are familiar with the brand and are likely to purchase its products. The analysis of the findings for brand personality shows that Bonia is perceived as a competent, sincere and sophisticated brand. There were relatively few respondents who perceived that Bonia was an exciting and rugged brand. Bonia should be marketed to customers who are competent, sincere and sophisticated to match the personality of the product's brand with individual consumers. Neither excitement nor ruggedness represents the personality of Bonia.
