Su Atacan Steps onto the Runway for the First Time, Following in Pınar Altuğ’s Footsteps
Su Atacan, the 16-year-old daughter of renowned Turkish actress Pınar Altuğ, experienced her first runway appearance during the special fashion show titled “Miras”, held in Gaziantep at the historic Dolikhe Ancient City.
Making her debut in an extraordinary historical setting, Su Atacan drew attention with her natural beauty, confident posture, and graceful walk, earning strong appreciation from the audience in her first official step into the fashion world.
“Miras” Fashion Show Brings History and Fashion Together
The collection showcased at the event was designed by acclaimed fashion designer Tuba Ergin. The show took place among ancient ruins dating back to the 3rd century BC, offering a striking fusion of contemporary fashion and historical heritage.
Centered around the concept of sustainable fashion inspired by nature, the collection perfectly complemented the mystical atmosphere of the ancient city.
Following Her Mother’s Path
Su Atacan’s runway debut inevitably brought to mind the early career of her mother, Pınar Altuğ, who also began modeling at the age of 16. In 1994, at just 19 years old, Altuğ was crowned Miss Turkey, marking a major breakthrough in her career.
The fact that both mother and daughter appeared in fashion shows designed by the same designer was widely interpreted as a symbol of the Altuğ family’s enduring elegance.

Located within the boundaries of the Nizip district in Gaziantep, Dolikhe Ancient City is considered one of the region’s most significant historical sites. The “Miras” fashion show went down in history as the first fashion event ever held at this ancient location.
The evening welcomed many distinguished guests from the worlds of art, fashion, and business, while Su Atacan’s runway appearance was met with enthusiastic applause.
Pınar Altuğ: “I Am Proud of My Daughter”
I am incredibly proud to see Su stand on the runway with such confidence at this age. I experienced the same excitement when I was her age, and I truly believe her path will be bright.
Speaking after the show, Pınar Altuğ emphasized that education remains Su’s top priority, adding that any future career decisions will ultimately be her daughter’s own choice.
Fashion Critics Praise Su Atacan’s Performance
Fashion critics highlighted Su Atacan’s natural walk, calm expression, and poised presence, noting that she did not fall behind professional models despite it being her first experience.

A New Name Emerging in the Fashion World
Su Atacan’s runway debut sparked considerable interest within the fashion industry, with several agencies and fashion brands reportedly showing interest in the young talent.
Industry experts suggest that if Su chooses to continue in modeling, she could achieve a strong position in the fashion world despite her young age.
