Abstract
An article of luggage includes a garment bag portion and a valet case which is selectively removable from the garment bag portion or can be stored within the interior of the garment bag portion. The valet case is deployable to a supported position adjacent to the garment bag portion for convenient use. The garment bag portion, while having a flexible outer main panel, is selectively reinforced along a peripheral wall and is provided with roller support wheel members so that the bag will retain a substantially vertical orientation over the roller support members to allow the article to be rolled across a supporting surface while in a self-supporting folded condition.
