ZAGREB, 19 June 2019 – After her creations featured on the red carpet at the this year’s Oscars, business opportunities have been streaming in for Croatian designer Matija Vuica. 

One of the more interesting opportunities, Matija says, came from Alenka Bonić, who works with renowned artist Charles Billich in Australia and the chance to open a boutique in Sydney. 

“Her idea was to open an gallery where along with paintings from Charles Billich being exhibited, my dresses would also be presented. The idea sounded exclusive and wow to me and the idea was whole-heartedly accepted by Bilich and his wife Christa,” Matija told IN Magazine. 

After four months of planning and making it happen, the gallery will open in two weeks in the centre of Sydney at Sheraton Sydney, 161 Elizabeth Street.

“It seems now my dresses have found their home,”

Matija plans on visiting Australia, as well as Los Angeles soon to meet with her distributors.
