The FW27 Collection, Midnight Bloom in Pera, focuses on early 20th-century Istanbul, and particularly on the multi-layered cultural atmosphere of Pera. In the final years of the Ottoman Empire, the city was witnessing the close of one era and the dawn of another. This transition between traditional life and Western modernization forms the starting point of the collection.
Accompanying this story is Edwardian England of the same period. The aristocratic elegance of London and the cosmopolitan spirit of Pera are explored throughout the collection as two aesthetic worlds that complement one another.
PLEATED BLUE DRESS
PINSTRIPE LONG BLAZER
In this collection, Pera is not merely a location but a character in its own right. Along the Grand Rue de Péra, the hotels, theaters, European-influenced apartment buildings, and Ottoman architecture come together on the same street. Gas-lit pavements, the sound of trams, and the misty atmosphere of winter nights shape the visual world of the collection. These contrasts represent the aesthetic balance struck between East and West, past and future, tradition and modernity.
