Our Story

As a made-to-measure slow fashion atelier, ANAKAYA offers versatile, beautifully crafted handmade clothing and accessories immune to trends.

Putting the knowledge my mother has acquired since her youth together with the design details I have collected throughout the years, we focus on creating a style that someone would have in their wardrobe forever.

When you order from ANAKAYA, you're not purchasing a mass-produced product from a factory in far-off lands. Each garment we make is tailored to the specific measurements of the woman purchasing it, meaning each item is custom made and unique.

Asuman

Finding meaning through craftsmanship, my mother Asuman puts her sewing know-how acquired since her youth to good use every day in her workshop in Akhisar for more than 20 years, improving her skills inherited from her grandmother, who was also a seamstress.

After graduating from Dokuz Eylül University Textile Design, she worked in various factories and workshops in Turkiye and abroad. In addition to the exhibitions she participates as a fiber artist, she continues her work by designing costumes for theaters and shows.

Founders of the brand Anakaya

From patterns to fabrics, buttons to threads, everything is put together by two people in our workshop. Not only do we solely work with the finest materials, our whole approach is based on care.

Slow fashion improves our consumer awareness by creating an effective change in our relationship with the clothes we wear and those who produce them. This minimizes overordering and its consequent waste, while inviting consumers to reinforce their own style with long-lasting designs.
