Groselj Marjeta - Torbice (handbags shop), Ljubljana
Marjeta Grošelj – Torbice is the long-established boutique of one of Slovenia's most influential handbag designers. Opened in 1966, it has presented Marjeta Grošelj's original creations for decades, helping shape the country's contemporary fashion and leather design. After graduating from the Academy of Fine Arts and Design, she gained further professional experience in Great Britain and developed an artistic approach to leather design recognised with several major fashion awards.

The distinctive “G” motif and limited production have made many older bags valued collectors’ pieces.
Visitors interested in Slovenian fashion and design can discover handcrafted bags reflecting six decades of creative work. The boutique presents leather as wearable art, with new collections continuing a design tradition established in 1966.
