In this term, awareness of these life-threatening conditions has increased, and the importance of sustainability has become a priority in all fields. In this context, two important trends have emerged in the last decade: Slow Fashion and Slow Food. This study discusses the reasons for the accelerating increase in consumption of food and clothing in recent years and how the "slow" movement can be a sustainable common perspective. In this study, aimed that conceptual approach of the terms of “slowity” in the view of similar disciplines. Therefore, the similarities and differences of the subject have been examined with the studies in the literature in the field of Slow Fashion and Slow Food. The method of the research is document analysis, one of the qualitative research methods. In the study, 26 articles in the Turkish TR index in terms of gastronomy and fashion disciplines were evaluated and reported in terms of content, aim, method and conclusion. Similarities and differences of the slow movement developed against the fast production and consumption cycles of both disciplines have been examined, and recommendations have been provided for a sustainable life. According to the research findings, Slow Food and Slow Fashion exhibit similar approaches in terms of sustainability, ethical production, conscious consumption, and respect for local culture and identity. In conclusion, although the terms Slow Food and Slow Fashion are distinct from each other, they both encourage the adoption of a sustainable, conscious, fair, and culturally compatible lifestyle due to their shared characteristics.
