Unique products manufacture forms the main segment of the business, while parts of it are based on larger production runs, depending on the customers’ wishes. Đurđica Vorkapić lives and breathes fashion and instead of churning out new collections she draws inspiration from her surroundings every day. The Hippy Garden style is about creative unrestraint, and with its provocative collections it cuts through conventions.
After years in fashion, Đurđica Vorkapić prides herself on creating things without any constraints. She works often for foreign customers and exhibits at fairs in all major European cities. Every dress is special and unique in terms of design, and only first class materials such as brocade, silk, and viscose are used in their manufacture. She is especially proud of the work she did for the second installment of the fashion show “Spirit of Lika,” where she unveiled a collection combining traditional Croatian motifs.

Unique Hippy Garden creations are original Croatian products, and the whole domestic production story was crowned with the souvenir line From Croatia with Love, which focuses on women’s clothes. She connected Croatian manufacturers through the souvenir part of the Licitar heart story, collaborating with Borovo and Atlantic Grupa, so that in their stores you can buy Startas sneakers with the Licitar heart pattern or a lip balm with the same motif.
With her dedicated and creative handwork, Đurđica Vorkapić constantly searches for new challenges in creating recognizable articles that still make her one of the most esteemed designers in Croatia.
