MUSTAFA KEMAL ATATÜRK’S BATHROBE REPRODUCTION STUDY: ANCESTRAL BATHROBE SAMPLE

Atatürk has stood out throughout history with numerous qualities as a statesman and leader. It is a well-known fact that he has earned admiration not only in Turkey but also worldwide for his successful implementations in both military and civilian life, leading his society. Making it a principle to teach his people the requirements of being a civilized society, respecting and cherishing him appropriately in every aspect of life, showcasing our respect and love for him through our actions and what we impart to the future is essential to honor his spiritual persona. Although Atatürk's practices in his private life, especially his clothing preferences, have been to some extent articulated, they have generally been evaluated within the framework of his reforms, as understood from written and visual sources. The aim of this practice is to scientifically and sectorally evaluate Atatürk's bathrobes, which are one of the special parts of his daily life accompanying his affinity for sports, especially swimming. In this context, the worn-out bathrobe identified among Atatürk's belongings at the Beşiktaş Maritime Museum has been faithfully reproduced to preserve his memory.
