Rukiye K.
Premium Textile Specialist | Home Textiles, Apparel & Custom-Made Prod
I have been working in the textile industry for over 15 years in Istanbul, one of the world’s leading centers of textiles. Throughout this time, I have gained hands-on experience in nearly every stage of production — from label sewing and label making, to product design, prototyping, and sample development. My background spans across home textiles such as bed sheets, fitted sheets, duvet covers, quilts, and cushions, giving me a wide range of expertise in both everyday and premium textile products. For the past 10 years, I have also been producing custom-made dancewear for a boutique business, specializing in tailored garments that are individually measured and fitted (special shoulder, waist, sleeve measurements, etc.), alongside standard ready-to-wear versions. In addition to sewing, I also design products myself, combining creativity with functionality. Currently, I provide product sourcing and manufacturing services for several international companies, particularly in categories such as ready-made textiles, clothing, modest lingerie, and corsets. I am also actively collaborating with a Denmark-based cushion brand, transforming their creative designs into premium, high-quality cushions tailored to their market. With years of experience across different aspects of textile production and sourcing, I bring not only technical know-how but also a strong sense of design and attention to detail. My goal is always to deliver products that combine quality, creativity, and reliability.
