OUR STORY & HERITAGE
Blanc Sile Fabrics was founded in 2019 in Istanbul as a mother-daughter initiative by Yasemin and Tuğçe.
Taking its name from the historic coastal town of Şile in northern Istanbul, our brand unites the heritage of traditional Şile fabric—handcrafted by generations of local women artisans and protected by Protected Geographical Indication (PGI)—with timeless, mindful forms.
