hey everyone,
Im just wondering what is the fashion like in türkiye...

For example here in australia the latest trends are

:Skinny leg jeans(jeans that are tight around the ankle)
:Long fluro coloured shirts with writing printed on them(e.g. "I Love My Boyfriend* *Make Chocolate Not War* *Make Music Not Missiles*)
:TN's(Nike Trainers/Shoes)

Also, what are some of Türkiye's BIGGEST Brands,
Some of Australia's would be...
*Lonsdale London
*Bardot
*Supre
*Industrie
*Miss Shop/MYER Brands
*Nike
*JayJays
*Cotton On
*BillaBong

Im really curious as to what the fashion is!!

When I was in İstanbul earlier this year, one thing that amazed me was the diversity of fashion clothing that people were wearing. Everything from traditional religious dress to full on gothic to fruits inspired colours to all revealing micro skirts.

I was also impressed by the general acceptance of people to others who appear 'different' as well as by the apparent lack of care for the label over the garment.

being fashionable don't only mean wearing the dress.It's a statement:how about BAGS,bags that say something like:there are trends of bags that say "I'm not plastic" - it means the bag is not made of plastic material but of some fabric..whatever I mean you wear this bag to promote/preserve environment

What??? But that is a great place! One of the best places in Britain! You can go there dressed in ANYTHING and not have dirty looks thrown at you, people that take it as normal. There are people all over the world, that go there. You can get some of the best things there! I love that place.
How do you know about that Bod? Any more information?

I don't dress "strangely" but I love people that do!
First of all at least they have the guts to wear what they want and don't care what people think and also it's unique.

Well I don't look like him, but I am very good at spotting different literary styles .

Sorry - a good detective never reveals his clues until the mystery is solved

I don't think it's strange. It was quoted from people that pass by or someone who dislikes what they are wearing. Like I said Bod, I like it because it is unique.
I don't get it, people go to Camden and say things like "oh my god doesn't he/she look awful" or "imagine wearing that!".
I feel like saying "you do realize you are in Camden?" That is why I like to travel to different countries or places I have never been before that is very different from my own. To see things that are unique or not very often seen/heard.
