Fashion fades, style remains. Even though trends change every season, some details stay. The details that make a woman recognisable, such as her hair colour, the shape of her brows or her make-up, live with her for years. Below, we have rounded up the celebrities remembered for these signature details.
As if to do justice to Coco Chanel’s words “Fashion fades, only style remains the same,” there are certain details in all our styles. That is why we never compromise on these details, no matter what. For some of us it’s eyeliner, for others hair colour, for others naturalness… These details, which become part of us, turn into something like our signature after a while. Without them, we all feel a little incomplete, a little different. And of course, the same goes for celebrities!
The signature details of Turkish celebrities
Here they are: the famous details that have become celebrities’ signature style.
- Burcu Esmersoy
Blonde hair is one of the essential details of Esmersoy’s style, almost like her signature! That is why it feels strange when we see her with a different hair colour.
- Pınar Altuğ
The series “Çocuklar Duymasın” brought the pencil-thin-browed Pınar Altuğ into our homes. And although Altuğ now prefers thick brows, it is still unusual for many of us.
- Merve Boluğur
What do you think of the blonde look on Boluğur, known for her jet-black hair and red lipstick?
- Beren Saat
Bihter, who enchanted us by tossing her softly wavy hair and with her smoky eye make-up, looks like a completely different person with curly hair!
- Elçin Sangu
We can’t fail to mention Elçin Sangu’s make-up, which attracts at least as much attention as her hair colour! Because it is almost impossible to recognise her without it!
- Serenay Sarıkaya
In fact, the same goes for Serenay’s make-up!
- Fahriye Evcen
Fahriye, one of the women whom the eyeliner-and-lipstick combo suits best, looks like a completely different person when she goes slightly overboard with her make-up. But we love her so much more with her simple make-up!
- Gülben Ergen
Does anyone remember these looks of Ergen, who never gives up her short, wavy hair, whatever the fashion or trend?
- Demet Akalın
Without the hair she lengthens and thickens with hairpieces, doesn’t Akalın look so unlike herself?
- Ebru Gündeş
And we couldn’t leave out Ebru Gündeş‘s thick and equally well-shaped brows.
- Meryem Uzerli
What hair could suit our Hürrem, our sultana Uzerli, as well as copper red? The answer, of course, is none!

Fashion fades, style remains: finding your own signature detail
These celebrity details actually tell us something simple. Style is less about trying something new every season than about knowing what suits you and sticking with it. To find your own signature detail, first look in the mirror at what you love most. Perhaps your defined brows, perhaps the natural wave of your hair, perhaps the lipstick shade that suits you best.
What is more, once you find this detail, it becomes easier to build your outfits around it. There is no need to abandon trends entirely. It is enough to choose them so that they don’t overshadow your signature. Finally, for the life and designs of Coco Chanel, known as the author of the saying, take a look at the Coco Chanel entry on Turkish Wikipedia.
