Episode 8: Rozalia Russian

This week we’re speaking to Rozalia Russian. Rozalia is a force of nature in Australian fashion. She’s one of the country’s most in-demand content creators, with a quarter of a million followers who hang on her every sartorial and beauty move. And while yes, there are a lot of women with big Instagram followings, Rozalia has something different, a kind of special sauce. Her collaborations sell out within hours, when she wears something, you soon see it impact the way Australian women dress. Part of this is down to Rozalia's remarkable work ethic. Born in war torn Uzbekistan, Rozalia and her family moved to Australia when she was four, and she didn't speak a word of English. We discuss her remarkable journey, including the years she was convinced she would be a professional ballerina, as well as Rozalia's best style, beauty, and hair advice.
