Rosa Kusstatscher can create the perfect outfit for any occasion - and she's built a global fashion empire on her talent. But tonight, as she prepares for the most important meeting of her life, her usual certainty eludes her.


As she struggles to select her dress and choose the right shade of lipstick, Rosa begins to tell her incredible story.

The story of a poor girl from a village high in the mountains of Italy. Of Nazi occupation and fleeing in the night.

Of hope and heartbreak in Switzerland; glamour and love in Paris. Of ambition and devastation in Rio de Janeiro;

success and self-discovery in New York.
