Women cepken with cord fastening examples in Konya museums were investigated within the scope of the study.

This article, which is an example of traditional costume dress and embroidery art and is intended to carry these works to the present and to pass them on to next generations, is important because of shedding light on artists interested in this field, creation of written and visual resources and the fact that this technique has not been investigated and used so far. During the review of the literature, it has been determined that there is no study and comprehensive research on the technique of cord fastening. The research is important in terms of overcoming this deficiency. In addition, this article is important in terms of documenting the corduroy textile works with ethnographic values that may disappear over time and, especially, introducing the apparel of the 19th and 20th centuries today.
