Rifat Ozbek (born 1953) is a Turkish-born fashion and interior designer, known for his exotic, ethnically-inspired outfits.He was named British Designer of the Year in 1988 and 1992.

After graduating in 1977, Ozbek went to Italy where he worked in Milan between 1978 and 1980, then in London with Monsoon .] In 1984 he established his own company, Ozbek, and began to show his yearly collections in Milan and New York City, and more recently, in Paris. In 1987 the production of his studio line, Future Ozbek, was licensed to Aeffe SpA, in Italy, and his notoriety continued to grow. By 1995, he had launched his own perfume called "Ozbek", and later a second, "Ozbek 1001". The fall 1999/spring 2000 collections of many designers reflected the very aesthetic that Ozbek valued for over a decade—the artful mixing of unlikely patterns, shapes, and ornamentation, along with bits and pieces borrowed from a global grab bag. In 2010, Ozbek launched a new business called "Yastik", which means "pillow" in Turkish, and opened his first London store.

Özbek was an interior designer for Robin Birley's new nightclub, 5 Hertford Street, which opened in 2012

'‎ في مأمن عن الاذى

We came across an Ottoman soldier’s undergarments from the 16th century. These silk robes intended to be worn under one’s armour were covered by hand painted protective calligraphy.

This mixture of religion and art reminded us of Serhat’s grandfather, who wrote these protective scriptures in Arabic for anyone that required them in their village in Turkey. They would normally be hidden in leather pendants (in Turkish muskas) or sewn into undergarments.

The words ‘Safe From Harm’ came to us in a dream, which became an affirmation we rendered in Arabic calligraphy created by Syrian artist Abdelrazak Shaballot.

Clothing as armour, both physical and spiritual, has been ongoing interest to us.

Turkish Cuisine Shines at 8th Global Fashion and Design Week

Noida, India: The 8th Global Fashion and Design Week continued to delight and surprise its international audience with a spectacular display of Turkish cuisine on the second day of its food festival. This session, inaugurated by His Excellency Firat Sunel, Ambassador of Turkey to India, was a highlight of the week-long event. The students of AAFT School of Hospitality and Tourism showcased their culinary skills, presenting an array of traditional Turkish dishes that left the national and international guests in awe.

Dr. Sandeep Marwah, President of the Festival, emphasized the pivotal role of food in cultural promotion and exchange. In his address, he stated, “Food is a fundamental aspect of culture that transcends boundaries and fosters mutual understanding and appreciation. Today’s presentation of Turkish cuisine is a perfect example of how culinary arts can bring nations closer.”

His Excellency Firat Sunel, in his opening remarks, highlighted the longstanding relationship between India and Turkey, noting the importance of such cultural events in strengthening bilateral ties. “The shared love for food and culture between our nations is evident in today’s celebration. It is a pleasure to see the efforts of young chefs bringing Turkish flavors to India,” he said.

The session was organized with the support of the Indo Turkey Film and Cultural Forum of the International Chamber of Media and Entertainment Industry. The forum has been instrumental in promoting cultural ties and projecting the powerful relations between India and Turkey through various initiatives, including this vibrant food festival.

The culinary display included a wide range of Turkish dishes, from savory kebabs to sweet baklava, each meticulously prepared by the talented students of AAFT School of Hospitality and Tourism. The authenticity and flavors of the dishes were highly praised by the attendees, who appreciated the students’ dedication and culinary prowess.

“Everyone loved the food and the entire experience was truly enriching,” remarked a guest at the festival. The efforts of the students were applauded, with many noting the festival as a fantastic platform for showcasing the rich culinary traditions of different countries.

As the 8th Global Fashion and Design Week progresses, it continues to serve as a beacon of cultural exchange and creativity. The inclusion of diverse culinary presentations underscores the event’s commitment to fostering global unity and appreciation of different cultures.

WW I Part II

Women's fashion has less ornament and detail. Pockets were stictched on the exterior of women's skirts and jackets instead of hidden in seams. Jackets were worn longer over the hips and looser fitting with belts wrapped around the waist. Women's waists were no longer emphasized as they had been with corsetted dress. Women's skirts were shorter and showed their shoes.

Though we don't think of haute couture and war as having anything in common, in France the manufacturing and export of fashionable clothing for women helped to keep the economy going during World War I.

While Coco Chanel got her start during the great war, it was Paul Poiret who was the star of the era's high fashion. Referred to as the King of Fashion in America in the 1910s, Poiret is most famous for his designs influenced by Orientalism, Neoclassicism, and Surrealism; the kimono, the Turkish trouser, the slit skirt, and the famous lampshade dress. Mostly, he is remembered for his stance on women’s fashon and the simplification of the female silhouette. He dismissed the petticoat and the corset, as the trends shifted away from tailoring toward draping. He disliked the word fashion, opting instead to design women’s clothing solely as an expression of individuality. “Women are wrong for following one style,” he said.

your recent post about allene's ball outfit redesign has me Clamoring for more of your thoughts regarding fashion inspiration in the world of spitfire! i know there are significantly fewer characters from places besides nadara/voswain, but do you have fashion inspirations for laruze/ogren/szerenfold/domina as well? (assuming domina is not just Only Dragons Who Probably Do Not Worry About Clothes)

oh i’m so glad you liked that post! i saw your tags and they made me smile :’)

i have some thoughts i can share, but a general rule of thumb for fashion inspiration in spitfire is that it should be eclectic in both region and time period and that when drawing inspiration, the first consideration should always be climate, followed by other considerations like thematically appropriate shape language or other through lines of design, like garments that are made from draping and pinning/tying large swathes of cloth.

there are exceptions and ofc the fashions of more rural areas in the more traditionally “developed” countries will be different from court fashion. like, voswainian court fashion may lean to french and british inspiration, but the more rural areas (where the weather is more extreme and where they don’t have magical heating) has more scandinavian, german and russian inspiration.

for laruze, most of the fashion ideation i’ve done is specific to the ballards and their followers, which actually draws significant inspiration from modern runway fashion and sci-fi (tho obviously altered to fit the greater context of spitfire), especially where halwynn is concerned. because they are drawing inspiration from a more modern source, there are fingerprints from a lot of cultures in these inspirations, esp japanese fashion and other robe styles.

i wanted it to have elements in common with both voswainian and nadaran fashion (voswainian bc it’s a former voswainian colony, nadaran due to proximity) as well as have its own flair, so for court clothes there’s french and italian with the doublets and gowns etc, and then there are also styles that focus on the use of wrapping/tying large bolts of cloth, tho these do have some sewing (think similar to kimono).

these 3 below were my primary inspiration for halwynn’s fashion specifically

while lysithea sticks closer to voswainian fashion for… personal reasons lol. and also because she is, essentially, a dandy.

i have some fledgling ideas on szerenfold but haven’t totally developed its fashion identity. it’s a quite warm and swampy area. me and my editor have been jokingly referring to it as the florida of the fantasy super continent, so i’ll most likely end up looking to sub-tropical climates like southern china, ethiopia, ecuador, greece, jamaica, etc.

and for ogren… all logic is thrown out the window and literally anything can be inspiration. ogren is a place where i could probably get away with having someone wear jorts, if i really wanted to, but it wouldn’t be a widespread trend. the main story of spitfire won’t get into this as it’s not ogren-centric, but there are actual world building/lore reasons for this.

i would say in general tho for ogren, it is the most eclectic of all the countries, since there is no centrally enforced cultural identity. it takes some bits from all the other fashions on the continent, plus its own flare. this is not wholly appropriate in terms of climate, but one of my big inspirations for ogrench fashion is actually turkish fashion. don’t ask me why, it just felt right.

there are also elements of indigenous inspiration, esp from the first nations regalia.

[tanalogyosc]

Rules of My OC Creation

I like to have a boundary or guide while making my own ocs

No IRL locations Obviously, since my OCs aren't in "Earth", they can't have the names of existing countries or places irl like California Roll, Turkish Delight, and so on (French Fries doesn't refer to french). Instead, they will use another name like Avocado Rolls or their original name like Lokum.

Names Same thing applies to their names, however I let myself able to use city or town names because that would've limited some good names choices.

Design Designs can't be too plain nor too complicated, they're supposed to dress like they wold belong to a world full of objects with their own culture and fashion wit different species.

Ok actually that's all i have

[elbiotipo]

Some random cultural quirks of the Campoestela universe:

Because some of the most economically powerful human worlds have been settled by people from the Middle East (like Hilav, settled by Alevi Turks), around the human worlds Arab, Turkish and Persian fashion are considered formal high fashion.

Suits and ties like what we wear now are antiquated, showing up wearing one is like showing up in plate armor. Some very, very old corporations and institutions use them in special ocassions.

The human custom of kissing is considered unsanitary or just plain wierd by most other species. Except those who are into weird fetishes, of course. Like ew, you're really into that?

There are NO grey spaceships like in other science fiction (though there are some with faded paint). It is a point of pride to paint your spaceship in your colors and personalize it, what fucking kind of spacer are you if you don't? Rioplatense spaceships are painted in proud fileateado, Serenissima spaceships display the coats of arms of the trading families, Australian spaceships are decorated in intrincate geometrical designs, every corporation has its own logo and livery, and the Socialist Interstellar flies in proud red and gold. And yes, of course, some paint flames on them to make them go faster.

Most worlds of Usamerican descent were initially settled by the late 23th century expansionist drive of the Latter Day Saints Church. For most of the galaxy, Usamerican is at least partially synonymous with Mormonism.

Of course, by the time this all happens (2600-2700 or so), nations such as Hawai'i, California, Cascadia, and of course Tejas have been independent for centuries.

Posca (name given by humans) is Campoestela's favorite drink. It's basically sparkling water with some salts and vitamins. It's sold everywhere and everyone drinks it because even across most alien species, they all like a little bit of the bubblé

There are many calendars across the stars, but the one accepted over most of Campoestela is the King's Calendar, which counts all the kings of the Precursors from the last one, around 22.700 years ago. Why was he the last king? Well, that's the mystery, right? The year is about 558 days long, and fortunately for humans, the day is easily converted into 21 hours.

While most human ships use "Earth Time" (24/365) and the Space Calendar (counting from the first flight of Yuri Gagarin), those who work elsewhere with the King's Calendar (or other) complain about the "missing three" hours. Conversely, cultures with longer days allow you a little more time to nap. Sometimes hours of it.

The Evolution of Pants for Women: from Underwear to Fashion Statement, Part I

I've posted a lot on the Victorian fashion era which, frankly, is favorite – visually, anyway. It's time to jump ahead a bit to the 1920's and catch a glimpse of how rapidly fashion changed in the late 1900s to 1920s.

figure 1

First, a quick run-down of how underpants led to actual fashionable dress. In the better part of the 19th century, women had no need of underpants because of the many layers they donned as part of their dress ritual. During the Regency period, some women, not yet incumbered by hoops and bustles, would sometimes wear male-style underpants if they couldn't resist a dress made from a sheer fabric. It meant less need for extra petticoats as well as a guarantee that nothing private would be exposed in dubious, uncontrolled light.

Usher in the Victorian era and hoop skirts and petticoats were sufficient to satisfy modesty.

In the early 1900s we begin to see the emergence of pantaloon-chemise combos, slips, and various types of corsets that are beginning to look more like the modern girdle. (Figure 2)

figure 2

The first woman in history to wear trousers was Elizabeth Smith Miller, known as Libby, in 1851. The popularity of the ‘pantaloon’ style, however, was due to Amelia Jenks Bloomer, an American women’s rights advocate and publisher of the magazine, The Lily. Through the magazine, Amelia helped to popularise ‘bloomers’ in the late 1850s, and hence, the bloomer style was consequently named after her.

“As soon as it became known that I was wearing the new dress, letters came pouring in upon me by hundreds from women all over the country. They were making inquiries about the dress and asking for patterns. It showed how ready and anxious women were, to throw off the burden of long, heavy skirts,” Amelia Jenks Bloomer wrote at that time. Shortly after, the style started to gain a lot of media recognition. The newspapers of those days described the style as: “Pantaloons" or ‘Turkish trousers" – "men-garments designed specifically for women.”

figure 3

Amelia suggested to women to wear less tight clothing and more comfortable clothing – women's trousers – a very radical idea for the times. They were very wide trousers, narrow at the ankle, with a short skirt on top. The idea was then revived in 1881 by viscountess Haberton, who founded The Rational Dress Society in England, a movement that replaced the use of women's dresses in the name of health and hygiene, proposing the use of wide trousers or pant-skirts. (Figure 3)

Women in pants were intimidated, harassed, and ridiculed to the point that, by 1859, even the most daring, including Jenkins Bloomer, gave up their fight for pants.

1890's cigar-box lid depicting a satirical scene of women in pants and smoking cigars.

That, however, is obviously not the end of it. Stay tuned for part 2.
