While Mustafa Kemal was planning the revolutions for new Turkish Republic, he aimed to reach the civilization. In addition to cultural and political revolutions, Turkish public should have been taken the position of modern world. That’s why Mustafa Kemal examined the clothing of developed countries, and he decided to apply this to modern Turkish Republic İN 1930’s.

Before the republic, Turkish society was wearing old style clothes and old-style hats such as fes and turban. This appearance wasn’t looking good for the civilized world. So, this should have changed. He designed modern clothes and hats for the public. Firstly, he applied this revolution himself (as he always did). Then it took place in society. Hat was a very weird for the society, but it didn’t take long to be orientated. Clothing revolution brought new Turkish Republic to the modern world. Also, the neighbor countries applied the same revolution to their countries such as Iran and Greece. Women and men started to wear modern clothes and hats. It was banned to wear their uniforms without their services for all religious men (Actually it is still valid). All religious clothes and figures were banned in order to secure secularism. (Actually, it is valid, too)

He took everything in account to reach the modern world. His purpose is to protect the public from the social and political pressure. The appearance of the public is so important that it is one of the scales to show the level of the public.

Always ATATURK….
