With a unique personality
I want to captivate the viewers.

After graduating, I launched my own brand, "tanakadaisuke," and work as a fashion designer and embroidery artist, creating costumes for artists and commercials. Since I'm generally given complete creative freedom for costume and item orders, the appeal of this job is that I can pursue my own vision in every aspect, from materials and design to sewing and finishing, to create something I'm completely satisfied with. In 2022, I presented a collection on the runway at "Tokyo Collection," and I find it increasingly rewarding to reach a wider audience.

I was able to debut while still a student with the brand "DOKKA vivid," which I founded with my childhood friend. Based on the concept of "Spice for your life," we propose colorful and stimulating items that add spice to life. In 2022, we were able to present an upcycled collection, created by deconstructing and reconstructing vintage clothing, at "New York Fashion Week," one of the world's four major fashion weeks. We also collaborated with Votrell College of Fashion and are involved in the operation of the on-campus press room, "SPICE ROOM power by OIF."

Driven by what you "like",
Creating dazzling fashion

I'm in charge of overall brand direction, including design and production management. My days are busy with multiple tasks, but I feel a real sense of fulfillment when customers are moved by the new things we create. Starting from scratch with no prior experience in fashion, my time at OIF, working alongside inspiring teachers and friends, allowed me to gain hands-on experience in areas like collection production, show management, and pop-up shops in department stores—experiences that undoubtedly form the foundation of my current work. Moving forward, I want to dedicate myself to creating brands that empower women fighting in society, helping them shine from within and radiating positive energy.

I value my experience on the job.
Buying that only I can do

While working as a buyer, I also occasionally work in the store. As a buyer, I can confidently make purchases because I communicate with customers on a regular basis and accurately understand their demographics and needs. I strive to offer unique proposals that only "LITMUS" can provide, and I pay close attention to my social media posts and displays. My goal is to be a shop that customers will need for a long time, regardless of trends.

I've loved it since childhood.
Mastering design in the sports field

Having played soccer as a child, I became interested in designing sports equipment, and joined Mizuno Corporation. I am currently involved in the development and design of football wear and competitive swimwear. Although it is difficult to be required to provide comprehensive direction and visual communication, I am still able to enjoy my work because I learned perseverance at vocational school. Furthermore, I feel that my horizons have broadened by experiencing contests and exhibiting at exhibitions while I was a student. I would like to continue taking on new challenges.

Unleashing the value of the brand
We also aim to improve the status of sales staff.

I joined United Arrows and am currently in charge of PR for three brands. I've always dreamed of being in a position where I can convey the appeal of a brand. Scheduling shoots for multiple brands simultaneously is challenging, but I find it rewarding to create something together with everyone involved, from the photographer to the models. The customer service and PR knowledge I acquired during my student days forms the foundation of my work, and my experience participating in customer service contests is also proving useful. I want to continue to convey the appeal of the sales staff working in stores and provide customers with memorable experiences.

What a brand should be
Create, communicate

I joined "beautiful people" as a retail sales representative. Currently, I handle both sales and PR. Having more experience in sales, I am strongly focused on sales in my PR work as well. I value how to translate what a collection brand should be into sales. The foundation I learned in college is proving useful in both sales and PR. My goal is to make beautiful people a leading global brand representing Japan.

Graduated from the University of Shiga Prefecture

I studied under a stylist I met during my internship as a student, and then went independent. I am currently working as a freelancer. There are many difficult situations, such as transporting a huge amount of costumes and arranging them in a limited number of days. However, it is still deeply moving to see my styling being released into the world and seen by many people, and I would like to expand my field of activity. It is that internship I had back then that has influenced me today. I would like all of you who are planning to enroll to actively participate in the many job postings that come to the school and gain experience in a variety of fields!

It's not just a design.
The ideal garment is born through trial and error.

I joined Adastria because I was attracted to the environment that values diversity. I am in charge of designing women's wear. The most difficult part is when an issue arises in the production process. At times like that, I remember the experience I had managing a group brand during my student days. I still use what I learned through hands-on experience from product planning to sales, and I feel rewarded when the intention of the design I tried and tested gets across to customers. In the future, my goal is to start my own brand and become a designer who travels the world.

Each and every product I have worked on
Pour out your love

I design and produce approximately 120 items annually for the menswear section of "URBAN RESEARCH DOORS." The fundamentals and experience I gained as a design student are invaluable when meeting with representatives from various fields, including materials, patterns, and sewing factories. As a designer, I'm able to interact with a wide range of people, and I feel I'm growing every day. My goal is to launch my own brand. It would be wonderful to create styling examples using items from my own brand and have them featured in a magazine.

While being mindful of the environment
Pursuing one-of-a-kind knit art.

I launched "LOVE it ONCE MORE" and am producing knitted items based on environmentally friendly manufacturing using surplus yarn. Since I was a child, I have loved looking at knitted stitches. While I am able to work freely, I am always accompanied by responsibility and pressure. However, during my time as a student, I learned that "effort never betrays you." I had many opportunities to accumulate input under the guidance of caring teachers, turn it into a form, and output it, and I feel that I have grown in any way. My dream now is to spread knit art to the world.

Clothes that make you excited
I want to make

I joined World Co., Ltd. because I resonated with their attitude of continuously taking on new challenges. I have gained experience in various business sectors, and currently work as a pattern maker at Idiom, a group company, where I propose products tailored to the needs of clients. The products I handle vary widely in terms of concept and price range. I find it rewarding to be able to help people feel excited when they wear clothes they love. What underlies everything I do is the skills and knowledge I cultivated during my student days, as well as my ability to identify and solve problems. It is challenging, but I feel that I am growing every day.

Delivering items that fit seamlessly into everyday life.
I want to enrich my lifestyle.

I manage the brand "FUJI" and oversee everything from creation to management. "I feel confident when I wear these clothes" is what one of my customers said to me, and I feel really rewarded when a product I made becomes part of someone's daily life. When I was a student, I learned to dig deep into the philosophy and stories behind a design, and I realized that this gives depth to ideas. This has become an important guideline for running the brand today. We are also preparing for an exhibition in Paris, and I would like to spread Japanese technology and materials beyond borders.

Above all, I love people. And customer service too.
I also enjoy training the staff.

I've been a huge fan of "EVRIS" since I was a student. I acquired basic knowledge of materials and products, as well as customer service skills, at a vocational school, and used that experience to get a job at my dream company. In my third year, I was promoted to store manager. Currently, as an area manager, I prioritize creating stores that make customers happy, while actively engaging with shop members, recognizing each individual's strengths, and nurturing their potential. When my staff grow and advance in their careers, it makes me happier than when it happens to me.

Leveraging your strengths
I want to take on the challenge of being in a position to nurture others.

I work as a shop staff member at DIESEL, where I'm involved in social media management and visual merchandising. The customer service skills and internship experience I gained during my student days are certainly valuable, but the inspiration I received from being surrounded by stylish friends and teachers at fashion school has undoubtedly been invaluable in my current job. While I certainly enjoy sales, my goal in the future is to utilize my communication and management skills to be involved in training new employees and supporting store staff.

Fulfilling a childhood dream
Established my own brand

I launched the brand "efu" and handle everything from design planning to social media management and PR. It has been my dream since I was a child to have my own brand. When I hear people say, "I look forward to wearing efu clothes," I feel truly happy knowing that our clothes have become a part of their lives. The shop and brand management know-how I learned during my student days is now proving useful, and I'm glad that I focused on my goals back then. I want more people to know about efu and for it to grow.

I am in charge of a wide range of things, including magazines, advertisements, and costumes for artists and celebrities. Since I was in middle school, I loved looking at fashion magazines and wanted to become a stylist who could influence others. Even in difficult situations, I feel rewarded when I am able to style better than expected and receive praise. Performance costumes often involve remaking and resizing, and the sewing and pattern-making skills I learned as a student are very useful. Now that I have achieved my dream, I want to become someone that others look up to.
