A southern dreaming girl. Olga Rossano was always imagining her life being an artist traveling and exploring other countries, meeting incredible people and expanding her view of the world. She had an enormous sense of creativity and fell in love with fantasy books, music and fashion at a very early age. She was fortunate enough to grow up in a loving and talented family who always believed and supported her artistic side. Her father was a bullfighter and actor from Sevilla, a music lover who showed her bands like The Beatles, The Who and many other country and rock artists. He used to tell her bed time stories every night and watch sci-fi movies and cartoons every day. Her mother used to do some fashion photography when she was young. She taught her the significance of style and fashion. Olga admired so much her parents and studied and payed total attention to what they were doing, wearing and listening to so she immediately created her own world and personality. Her family has been related to modeling, acting, fashion design, opera and business. At catholic school, she started showing interest in arts, philosophy, theater, English, music and history, and really enjoyed singing harmonies at the choir during the weekly mass at school. In between classes she used to organize performances with her friends to participate at the school's events. At home, she started writing poetry and singing melodies, drawing mannequins and fashion collections, looking at fashion magazines and singing in front of the mirror. Continuously seeking to follow her independent spirit and true interest for everything related to fashion, Olga started her journey as a young teenager participating in local and national beauty contests and fashion shows for young designers.
