Determinations Related to Clothing: An Assay on the Evaluation of Ataturk’s Clothing Preference

Summary/Abstract: Communication is not only a verbal process. In communication as well as verbal codes, visual codes such as clothing also play a major role. There are as many personalities and styles as there are people in the world. Style creates its own clothing style. What we call people’s clothing preferences or clothing styles are more decisive or discrete paralel to their intellectual level and tastes, whereas it shows itself in a less decisive and less precise sense in others. Also, charisma is one of the factors that should not be ignored as it carries a message by means of clothing. In short, clothing is the mirror of personality and the most effective way to send a message by means of semantics and the most effective means of communication without the use of verbal communication. In this article Ataturk’s clothing style and clothing preferences will be investigated, as well as the relation between clothing and communication, the semantics of clothing, colors, and the psychological effects it has on mankind. Ataturk and his application with clothing in relation to the ‘hat revolution’ will be investigated in brief. There will also be an evolution of Ataturk’s clothing style with the materials in hand by means of memories, the views and comments of designers and by the help of photographs.
