After all, they looked down on designers from her region and felt that they were ignorant about fashion. Otherwise, Alfred wouldn’t be the only top-notch designer from the region.

There were also few models from the region, and that contributed to the oppression from foreign designers.

She never thought that her mentor’s name would nip all crises in the bud.
