When it came time to choose a model, the glowing Rossi was a natural choice.

"This is a woman who radiates health and vitality," Dreslyn founder Brooke Taylor Corcia said. "She's confident, she's a visual artist, she takes care of herself. [This line is] all about being a person who's well-lived and well-traveled and has intelligence and confidence, and letting that shine through."

What's her secret?

 

"There is no big secret," she told the Sunday Times. "All I have ever done is eat organic food – long before it became trendy."

"I take oil and use it on my skin. I put rapeseed oil on my hair. I scrub my skin once a week with olive oil and fine sugar, and I eat an avocado a day and organic meat and fish."
