Meet Aliia Roza, the ‘Russian spy'-turned-influencer: the self-proclaimed ‘master of seduction' has over a million followers on Instagram, and schmoozes with Paris Hilton and King Charles
If you haven't yet noticed Aliia Roza's ubiquity in the worlds of fashion, art and film, rest assured that she's coming to a red carpet near you very soon.
In February, she could be seen schmoozing at
New York Fashion Week , turning heads in an all black outfit for Christian Cowan's show. That appearance came just days after she'd been honoured by celebrity painter Rob Prior in Miami. And at the end of last year, she made a striking entrance during the Venice Film Festival premiere of
Joker: Folie à Deux alongside Lady Gaga in a sparkling gown by Vietnamese designer Do Long.
