Özet:

Interior textiles and costumes are important design tools in TV series about a historical era for fictionalizing the realism. Textile, which was used for covering and keeping away from cold, was a symbol of status representing the political and economic power in the 16th Century Ottoman Empire. The combination of textile and TV series has served for the popular culture in the course of time. In this study, how the orientalist expression was reflected via the textiles has been tried to be explained over the TV series “Muhteşem Yüzyıl” (The Magnificent Century) in 2011-2014, which was about Suleyman the Magnificent, one of the most important Sultans of the Ottoman Empire, and which appealed to a wide audience. The era at issue has been tried to be explained via the visual samples of the textile objects and their design.
