Ikuto Tsumura

Driven by a lifelong passion for fashion, this self-taught talent once abandoned his creative dreams to support his struggling family as the primary provider for his mother and sisters. Though financial hardships initially forced him into full-time labor, a pivotal friendship with Chiyuki and a job at Yanagida's studio reignited his pursuit of design. An intuitive patternmaker with a natural knack for ready-to-wear clothing, he gradually transforms from a humble, self-sacrificing youth into a confident, assertive designer.
