Article 16. Yüzyıl Giysi Tarihi Yazımı Üzerine: Giysilerde Doğu-batı Etkileşimi, Egzotizm ve Güç(2013) Er, Fehmiye DilekModa tarihinde batılı-olmayan giysilerin sunum ve dekorasyonları her zaman fantastik, büyüleyici, epik, dikkat çekici, egzotik, ruhani, zamansız ve değişmez gibi sözlerle ifade edilmiştir. Doğulu giysiler ve görünümler üzerindeki bu yaklaşım batılı anlayışın diğer kültürler üzerindeki yüceliğini, farklılığını ve gücünü gösterme arzusuyla yakından ilişkilidir. 19. yüzyıldan başlamak suretiyle doğunun dikkat çekici sunumları, batı giysi tarihinde batılı olmayan giysilerdeki teknik ustalıklar ve bu giysilerdeki özgün motifler egzotik olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Bu amaçla hem giysi tarihi hem de modern moda tarihi yazımında doğunun her zaman egzotik, primitif, öteki ve otantik olma noktasında bir söylem söz konusu olmuştur. Özellikle 16. yüzyıl Osmanlı İmparatorluğu?na ait egzotik giysiler ve kumaş teknikleri aynı dönem Avrupa modasına yoğun bir şekilde adapte edilirken giysiler ihtişamın ve gücün de bir göstergesi olmuşlardır. Bu çalışmada giysi tarihi açısından Osmanlı İmparatorluğu?nun en gösterişli dönemlerinden biri olan 16. yüzyılda giyilen Avrupalı giysilerinde Osmanlı giysi kültürünün izleri, egzotizm kavramı çerçevesinden incelenecektir. Bu çalışmada batılı giysilerdeki egzotik gösterimler aracılığı ile okumalar yapılırken, “egzotizm” kavramı, batıya ait olmayanı anlatma noktasında ele alınacaktır. Çalışma gücün kullanımı ve ihtişamın anlatımı olarak kullanılan lüks kumaşlardan üretilen egzotik giysi ve aksesuarları,16. yüzyılda Osmanlı İmparatorluğu?nda kullanılan giysilerin aynı dönem Avrupa modasına adapte edilme biçimlerini de içerecektir.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Aesthetic and Cultural Approach To the Change in the Making Techniques of Karagoz Figures(Istanbul Univ, Research Inst Turkology, Dept Art History, 2021) Öngen Corsini, Duygu Ebru; Corsini, Duygu Ebru ÖngenKaragoz developed as a unique culture in Anatolian lands. Despite many controversies about how Karagoz came into existence, there is a consensus that it emerged in the 16th century. Figures, as cultural objects, have production methods and techniques interwoven with the doctrines of the past. Today, figure-making for different purposes, inherited from the past, is present in Karagoz figure art. The aesthetic reflections, technique, and material harmony of the figures for show purposes must carry the cultural essence of Karagoz. This study examines museum collections and exhibitions, interviews with Karagoz masters, and a data analysis from an academic perspective. Considering these factors, it becomes clear that the training of masters for figure-making art is significant. Long-term training organized by institutions will contribute to this art and might be beneficial for good examples to reach the audience. Transferring the figures to future generations while preserving their cultural essence, making them in a suitable technique, and aesthetic understanding synthesized with modern techniques; will also contribute to the survival of this art.Article An Altarpiece for Parishioners and Pilgrims in Heiloo(Brill Academic Publishers, 2012) van Eck, Alexander[Abstract Not Available]Article Analyzing Sustainability in Fashion Through Bio-Synthetic Materials(Firenze University Press, 2025) Vuruşkan, Arzu; Uslu, Filiz ÖzbengiThe environmental consequences of the fashion industry are undeniably severe and contribute to environmental pollution and degradation in many ways. While sustainability discussions are continuing, new material trends are emerging and the source, production process, and experience of these materials also affect the fashion industry. Synthetic biology is a promising tool combining bio-design and bioengineering. This new bio-synthetic approach offers an innovative path toward ethical and clean fashion production by transforming microbes or bacteria into “living factories” that produce sustainable materials. However, a broader evaluation is required to grasp the full potential and ethical challenges, especially regarding the commodification of living organisms for mass production. It is imperative that research be conducted to assess the environmental, social, and economic impacts of bio-synthetic materials, particularly in the context of the “living factories” concept. Considering the ethical risks of exploitative practices and the need for transparency, this study examines bio-synthetic applications in fashion, their impacts on sustainability, and their implications for planetary well-being. © 2025 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Analyzing the Gap Between Physical and Digital Fashion(Hometrica Consulting, 2022) Vuruskan, Arzu; Sahin, EceAfter the launch of the metaverse, digital fashion has been given more attention by fashion brands. In addition, the gaming and fashion industries' paths became intertwined through fashion items. However, in-game cosmeticsi and real-life fashion garments are quite different in terms of material and style, i.e., there is a clear gap between digital and physical fashion. Due to its flexibility, digital fashion can easily be differentiated from physical fashion. This research aims to highlight the gap between digital and physical fashion in video games. For this purpose, a survey was conducted with 100 gamers. After collection from the participants, the data was reviewed, and accordingly, a sample game was chosen for this research. In order to narrow the gap between digital and physical fashion, a capsule collection was designed for the game called "League of Legends". Three pairs of outfits, one version for digital fashion and one for physical fashion, were prepared in 2D and 3D. The outfits were designed to suit the chosen characters. Such approaches can allow consideration of points of similarity for the pairs of designs, enabling adaptation to the digital world. As a result, the gap between digital and physical fashion can be narrowed and more realistic garments can be created for video games, which are able to satisfy and even inspire gamers.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 3An Approach To Develop Creativity by Understanding Structure in Fashion Design Education(Ege Univ, 2017) Vuruşkan, Arzu; Burns, AngelaThere are numerous approaches that can be considered for analysing structure in fashion design. In order to create something new, a move away from conventional generic shapes toward more interesting structures is a necessity. The purpose of this study was to investigate an approach to the design process that could facilitate the understanding of structure as a fundamental component of fashion design and support students' development in creativity with structurally interesting garments. By developing a concept based on nature using 2-dimensional visual source material, drawing, collage, and experimental research development in the form of a sketchbook, a group of students from Department of Fashion Design who joined the project, were encouraged to make a rational analysis of the structural elements at their disposal. By executing a series of exercises aimed at exploring structure, students were observed to make a gradual progression from 2-dimensional research through design development, to 3-dimensional garment construction. In conjunction with the idea of structurally interesting designs, fabric choices, pattern making and garment construction were also considered. Each step from 2-dimensional exercises to garment construction was recorded as visual and written documentation. Additionally, a questionnaire was developed to receive student opinions and feedback. As a result, configuration of the design exercises and the project setup has been identified as an encouraging approach both to develop students' understanding of structure in fashion design and for the development of creativity in 3-dimension.Article Assistive Technologies for Individuals With Visual Impairment: Contribution of Design in the Field of Clothing(2019) Süller Zor, Başak; Vuruşkan, ArzuAccording to data of World Health Organization, it was estimated that 253 millionwere visually impaired worldwide in 2017 (WHO, 2017). For those with moderateto total blindness and visual impairment, daily activities such as mobility,communication, education, clothing and shopping cannot be carried outindependently. Assistive technologies (AT) offer solutions to contribute to thequality of life of those with visual impairments. Considering the daily obstacles facedby such individuals, as a prior step for design development of alternative ATs, thispaper includes an overview of ATs. Since this overview addresses a lack ofapplications in clothing related AT, the following survey aims to acquire feedbackfrom people with visual impairment, focusing on clothing related issues, with theaim of making improvements in design.Article Avrupa Resminde Statü Sembolü Olarak Türk Halıları: Londra Ulusal Galeri Örneği(2022) Adanır, Elvan ÖzkavrukTürk halıları Batı dünyasında yüzyıllar boyunca önemli bir yere sahip olmuştur. Türk halılarının Kuzey ve Batı Avrupa’ya ihracatıyla ilgili ilk bilgiler XI. yüzyıla ait olsa da bu halıların Avrupa ülkelerine yayılması ve bu toplumlar üstündeki etkisi konusunda kesin ve net bilgilerin 1453 yılından sonraki tarihlere rastladığı söylenebilir. Türk halılarının Avrupa’ya girişinde Venedikli tüccarlar büyük rol oynamıştır. Orta Çağ’da İngiltere’de halıların özel günlerde kiliselerde altarın önüne serildiği bilinmektedir. XVII. yüzyılın ortalarına kadar İngiliz saraylarında, aristokrat evlerinde ve diğer konutlarda zeminler taş, ahşap, karo ya da topraktır. Zeminler saman, çeşitli bitkiler veya çimen yayılarak örtülmüş, üzerlerine yer yaygısı serme gibi bir gelenekleri olmamıştır. XV. yüzyılda Türk halılarını satın almaya sadece kraliyet ailelerinin ve aristokrat ailelerin gücü yetmiştir. Bu yüzyılda halılar, diğer Doğu mallarından ve bazı sanat eserlerinden çok daha yüksek fiyata satılmıştır. Türk halıları Avrupa saraylarında, kiliselerde ve aristokrat evlerinde bir statü simgesi olarak teşhir edilmiştir. Türk ve Doğu halılarının Avrupa resim sanatına ait örneklerde de resmedildiği görülmektedir. Halılar ilk önceleri dini konulu resimlerde daha sonra varlıklı kişilerin portrelerinde resmedilmiştir. Bu çalışmada Londra Ulusal Galeri’de XV-XVII. yüzyıllar arasında tarihlendirilmiş bir grup tablo incelenmiştir. Tabloların ortak özelliği o dönemlerde Avrupa için Türk halılarının ne kadar değerli ve önemli olduğunu vurgulayan örnekler olmasıdır. Seçilen eserler Carlo Crivelli, Master of Saint Giles, David Ghirlandaio, Quinten Massys, Genç Hans Holbein ve Lorenzo Lotto tarafından yapılmıştır.Article Baltık Paganizminde Tanrıçalar: Litvanya Çağdaş Tekstil Sanatçılarının Eserlerinde Tanrıça Sembolleri(2017) Sakalauskaite, Jovita21. yüzyılda ortaya çıkan yavaş kültür akımı, sanat ve kültür alanında da değişikliklere yol açmıştır. Daha fazla ekolojik ürünler üretmek, sürdürülebilirliği sağlamak ve kültürün asıl köklerine dönmek, sanatçıların, tasarımcıların ve araştırmacıların önemli amaçlarından biri olmuştur. Litvanya'da, birçok sanatçı eski Baltık kültüründen ilham alarak sergiler açmakta, yeni ürünleri tasarlamakta ve yeni nesil antropologlar yeniden Baltık kültürünün özünü bulmak için çabalamaktadır. Bu makalenin amaçlarından birisi, kısaca, Baltıkların kimliğini, eski inancını ve kültürünü tanıtarak çağdaş tekstil sanatlarında onun yansımalarını incelemektir. Ayrıca, Baltık paganizmindeki tanrıçaların, Litvanyalı tekstil sanatçılarının 2016 Mayıs ayında açtığı sergide yer alan eserlere yansıması da tartışılacaktır. Serginin konsepti, 'Çağdaş Tekstilde Baltık Sembolleri' olup, sergide yer alan eserler bu bağlamda incelenmiştir. Eserlerde Baltık tanrıçalarının sembollerinin nasıl yorumlandığı ve sembollerin esere nasıl yansıdığı irdelenmiştir.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 2Biobased Material Computation and Digital Fabrication for Bacterial Cellulose-Based Biofabrics(Education and research in Computer Aided Architectural Design in Europe, 2023) Turhan, Gözde Damla; Çiçek, Selen; Özbengi Uslu, FilizThe collaboration with biological organisms, biomaterial computation, and digital fabrication offers new possibilities for reconsidering the relationship between human and non-human living forms. These organisms allow for the creation of materials, design and manufacturing processes, and end products to become more closely aligned with natural systems and processes, as they are derived from renewable resources and have a lower environmental impact than synthetic materials. In this research, by focusing on nature and non-human living organisms, biobased material computation and digital fabrication were explored to develop biofabrics. This research offers a fully biodegradable process with zero waste and unlimited supply, enhanced with the resources provided by nature, including nature's design and manufacturing methods. To create this sustainable, circular cycle, one of the most abundant materials in the world, the purest form of cellulose, is produced by bacteria such as Acetobacter Xylinus (A. xylinus). In collaboration with A. xylinus, bacterial cellulose-based biofabrics were grown and harvested. The methodology was divided into four main stages: Digital fabrication of a customized fashion dummy which involves 3D modeling, laser-cutting, and assembly of a fashion dummy; a stochastic scaffold design for the bacterial cellulose biofilm layer; biobased material formulation for developing a biofabric; and bio-assembly. The outcome has been exhibited at Good Design İzmir 7, a national curated exhibition among the invited guests’ section, and had a chance to meet a larger audience to raise awareness. As a result, it was seen that incorporating biobased materials into the digital fabrication process has the potential to not only improve the performance and sustainability of materials but also to encourage designers to reconsider the relationship between humans and ecology. Future studies can include the scalability of such systems for broader design realms, such as biobased architectural solutions for buildings, especially lightweight structures, as well as industrial design products such as packaging. © 2023, Education and research in Computer Aided Architectural Design in Europe.

Rather than as genre-like additions, it is argued that they were included as allegories of Charity. According to the gospel of Luke, John the Baptist advised those who had two coats to give away one, and people who had an abundance of food to share it with others. In other words, he exhorted people to be charitable. A literal visualization of one of the acts of charity in the Baptist's sermon is seen on a print published by Nicholas de Mathonniere, in which a man gives away a coat to another person in the audience (note 6). The allegorical approach was much more common though. Examples come from Germany, Italy and the Netherlands. In a woodcut by Cranach, three women in the audience are suckling babies (fig. 2); in a painting by Bacchiacca, a woman with three young children frollicking on her lap is positioned prominently in the foreground (note 4); similar groups are visible in Bloemaert's version of the subject in the Rijksmuseum (fig. 1), and in Philips Galle's engraving (fig. 3). A special case is Jacob Backer's Family group with John the Baptist preaching, as it includes a portrait of the mater familias with one bare breast (fig. 4). That again points to an allegorical interpretation, because such a display of nudity in a common portrait would have been deemed improper. Since it concerns a Mennonite family - the artist, who was a Mennonite preacher himself, included a self portrait with his finger raised in warning - this picture is also a reminder that the subject of the Sermon of John the Baptist was not a typical Calvinist subject referring to open air sermons ('hagepreken'), as is often assumed (note 16). In a country like the young Republic, the sermon was an important instrument for all denominations and a suitable subject for decoration on any wall.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 2Comparison of Actual and Virtual Pressure of Athletic Clothing in Active Poses(Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2024) Vuruşkan, Arzu; Ashdown, Susan P.PurposeThe circular design process in contemporary fashion design, from two-dimensional (2D) sketching and pattern making to three-dimensional (3D) prototypes, can be facilitated by virtual prototyping. Virtual pressure representations on avatars provide visual and quantitative information regarding garment fit and comfort, which are particularly important for active wear. The purpose of this study is to investigate the benefits of using avatars in active poses from 3D body scans and the use of digital 3D tools for the design process and the prediction of fit of active wear.Design/methodology/approachThis research initially explores virtual fit of cycling wear in active poses and compares the actual pressure values from humans with virtual pressure maps on custom avatars made from body scans in cycling poses across a range of sizes.FindingsSimilar fit results were achieved visually in both the standing and cycling poses. However, the comparisons showed no correlation between the actual and virtual pressure data. Of the 32 cases representing different combinations of the parameters of this research (four sizes, two garment types, four active poses), the differences were significant. The results suggest that, rather than providing a direct correlation with pressure values on the body, the main value of avatar data is in providing comparative visual support for fit evaluation.Originality/valueThe approach taken in this research, which considers the active pose and the size range, potentially contributes to the improvement of virtual fit technology, and its more effective use in apparel product development and fit evaluation.Article Citation - Scopus: 1Customers' Perspectives on Fit and Customization of Cycling Sportswear: Cross-National Comparison(Ege Univ, 2019) Vuruşkan, ArzuFeedback on fit and customization from activewear users provide a valuable source for improvements in apparel products. This research aims to contribute to effective design and patternmaking for activewear apparel, with a focus on cycling clothing. Cycling is becoming more widespread, not only as a professional sport, but also for commuting and recreational activities. Within the context of this research, customer preferences for cycling clothing, fit and customization were compared across two countries. Two data collection methods; semi-structured interviews and questionnaires were employed, collecting both qualitative and quantitative data. Data from the interviews and questionnaires, conducted in the US and in Turkey, revealed similarities between the two environments in cycling habits, clothing preferences and fit satisfaction. This study is of value, providing an analysis of cycling clothing and fit issues through a cross-national comparison, and increasing understanding of cyclists' needs and desires for companies interested in international markets.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 8Design Methodology and Performance Studies of a Flexible Electrotextile Surface(Autex, 2015) Kayacan, Ozan; Kayacan, Ozlem; Bulgun, Ender; Eser, Burcin; Pamuk, MasukThe smart textiles' concept has to develop products based not only on design, fashion and comfort but also in terms of functions. The novel electro-textiles in the market open up new trends in smart and interactive gadgets. 'Easy to care and durability' properties are among the most important features of these products. On the other hand, wearable electronic knitwear has been gaining the attention of both researchers and industrial sectors. Combining knitting technology with electronics may become a dominant trend in the future because of the wide application possibilities. This research is concerned primarily with the design methodology of knitted fabrics containing electrically conductive textiles and especially in-use performance studies. The structural characteristics of the fabrics have been evaluated to enhance the performance properties.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 3Design of an Interactive Fashion Recommendation Platform With Intelligent Systems(Inst natl cercetare-dezvoltare textile pielarie-bucuresti, 2024) Vuruşkan, Arzu; Demırkıran, Gokhan; Bulgun, Ender; İnce, Türker; Güzeliş, CuneytDesign platform intelligent systems With the increase in customer expectations in online fashion sales, greater integration of fashion recommender systems (RSs) allows more personalization. Design decisions rely on personal taste, as well as many other external influences, such as trends and social media, making it challenging to adapt intelligent systems for the fashion industry. Different methods for recommending personalized fashion items have been proposed, however, the literature still lacks an approach for recommending expert -suggested and personalized items. In this research, an interactive web -based platform is developed to support personalized fashion styling, focusing on users with diverse body shapes. To merge the user's taste and the expert's suggestion, the proposed methodology in this research combines genetic algorithms and machine learning techniques allowing the system to access expert knowledge (including external influences) and incremental learning capability, by adapting to the user preferences that unfold during interaction with the system.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 5Designing a National Uniform(ity): the Culture of Sumerbank Within the Context of the Turkish Nation-State Project(Oxford Univ Press, 2011) Himam, Dilek; Pasi̇n, BurkayThis article aims to re-define and re-conceptualize the concept of national uniform(ity) within the discursive framework of Turkish nation-state policies and display its concretization via the culture of the state textile factory Sumerbank, within the context of the Turkish nation-state project itself. On the basis of a comparative analysis of uniformity in the products of Sumerbank, we argue that the ideal of building a unified, collective and uniform(ed) nation-state can be identified at various levels. In the first section, the fundamental Kemalist reforms, policies, institutions and the way they affected the economic, social and cultural practices of Turkish modernization are examined. In the second section, the establishment of a Sumerbank culture peculiar to Turkish modernization and its contribution to the Kemalist ideal of creating a uniform(ed) Turkish citizen are treated. In the final section, the idea of uniformity is considered as expressed through body and space, both analogously functioning as a uniform. Accordingly, the authors provide a comparative analysis of uniform(ity) in the culture of Sumerbank based on disciplinary, conceptual and contextual scales as well as a critique of the Turkish modernization as a state-centred process, and Sumerbank culture as a problem field that exemplifies the local/global dichotomy of Turkish modernity.Other Erken Cumhuriyet Dönemi Terzilik Kültürü ve Ulusal Maddi Kültürün İnşası(2014) Tekcan, Elif; Er, Fehmiye DilekCumhuriyet döneminde Türkiyede endüstri gelişimini ve ulusal üretimi destekleyenmodernleşmeci e ndüstriyel bir söylem gelişmiştir. Ulusal kimlik inşasına katkı sağlayacakolan bu söylem içerisinde ülkenin modernleşmesi kadınların modernleşmesi ile bir t u- tulmuş ve Cumhuriyet kadınının giyinme biçimlerini de içeren yeni rolleri bu ideolojitarafından t anımlanmıştır. Özellikle 1930lu yıllarda devlet destekli çeşitli enstitüler ve biçki - dikiş kursları ile Türkkadınının dış görünümü biçimlenmiş, 1933 yılında kurulan Sümerbank Fabrikalarındaüretilen yerli malı kumaşlar ile ekonomik yaşam teşvik politika larının izlerinin görüldüğüözgün bir giyim kültürü ortaya çıkmıştır. Yine bu dönemde ekalliyet sınıfı terziler vemahalle terzileri tarafından üretilen giysiler ile Cumhuriyet kadınının ev içi üretiminparçası olarak ürettiği giysiler homojen gibi görünen ancak bir o kadar da çeşitlilik arzeden ulusal giyim kültürünün inşasına katkı sağlamışlardır.Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, hazır giyim kültürünün oluşmadığı dönemde kadınlara aitsosyal hafızayı özellikle terzilerin ürettiği giysi nesnelerine referans ve rerek ve modern i- zasyon dönemi ile ilişkilendirerek anlamaya çalışmak olacaktır.Article Citation - WoS: 3An Ethical Approach To Sericulture: Production of Peace Silk in Hatay/Turkey(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2022) Adanir, Elvan Ozkavruk; Ileri, Berna; Can, Feza; Ulasli, BasakOne of the earliest fibers used by mankind is silk, which was first cultivated in China. Mulberry silk is produced from Bombyx Mori which feeds on mulberry tree leaves. Bombyx Mori silkworm, hatching from its egg after 8-10 days of incubation, starts spinning its cocoon around itself on the 25th or 28th day. These cocoons are subjected to dry heat or boiling water which kills the pupae. Most of the silk consumers in Turkey are not aware of the fact that the silkworms are killed before completing their natural life span. On the other hand, the number of consumers has been rising in the world who wants to wear silk without harming the animals. In this study sericulture was done in an ethical way to produce peace silk fabrics and some of the mechanical properties of the fabrics were determined. This study is of value, raising awareness about peace silk and ethical production.Article Etik Modanın Temsiliyeti Bağlamında Vaatleri ve Çelişkileri: 'etik Moda' Ne Kadar Etik Sunuluyor?(2016) Kipoz, Şölen; Atalay, DuyguHızlı modanın üretim ve tüketim stratejilerinin yarattığı yıkıcı etkilerin görünür hale gelmesi, modanın yeniden tanımlanmasını sağlayan etik ve ekolojik bir tasarım anlayışının benimsenmesine yol açmıştır. Böylece etik moda 'Yavaş Moda Akımı' gibi yaratıcı söylemler geliştirmiş ve yerel zanaatları, adil ticareti, çok işlevli tasarım ürünlerini, katılımcı tasarımı, çevre dostu malzemelerin kullanımını ve geri dönüşümle değer kazandırılan tasarımları yücelten bir yapıya kavuşmuştur. Ancak küresel moda ekonomisi tarafından ticarileştirilerek asimile de olmuştur. Etik moda, başat sistem içerisinde tüketilebilen bir trende dönüştürülürken, sanal ortamda varlık gösteren niş bir medya ile beslenen alternatif bir tasarım hareketi olarak sınırlı kalmıştır. Bu makalede, etik modanın tasarım ve üretim stratejileri bağlamında söylemsel ve ticari temsiliyeti ele alınarak ana akım ve alternatif medyada yer alan haberlerin geriye dönük okuması yapılmıştır. Böylece etik modanın vaat ettiği 'etik olma' sözü, medya analizi üzerinden deşifre edilmiştir.
