Turkish Journal of Fashion Design and Management (TJFDM) is an international peer-reviewed academic journal dedicated to advancing scholarly research and critical inquiry in the fields of fashion design and fashion management. The journal provides an academic platform for original studies that examine fashion as a cultural, material, economic, managerial, and design-driven practice within contemporary contexts.
TJFDM publishes both theoretical and applied research addressing fashion design processes, apparel and textile practices, fashion management and organization, branding and communication, production and consumption systems, and the dynamic relationships between fashion, society, and industry. The journal supports diverse methodological approaches and encourages dialogue between academic research and professional practice.
Interdisciplinary research is welcomed from a broad range of design disciplines and related social science perspectives, particularly where studies engage with fashion-related themes, practices, systems, or experiences. Rather than imposing rigid disciplinary or thematic boundaries, TJFDM values interdisciplinary approaches that explore fashion in relation to space, objects, materials, technologies, users, organizations, and socio-cultural dynamics.
The journal aims to serve an international academic and professional audience and encourages submissions from diverse geographical and cultural contexts. By bringing together multiple perspectives, TJFDM seeks to contribute to both global and local discussions on fashion design and management and to support reflective, critical, and innovative research in the field.
