She spent most of her early life travelling because of her father's work: Thailand, USA, Africa.... 📍She spent her early school years in the United States, but her parents thought it would be better for Boscono to study in Italy and reconnect with her Italian heritage.

Boscono described her years in Kenya as "the most fantastic in her life". 📍Boscono was discovered at 17, during a dinner with a family friend who happened to be a photographer. Her first runways were in 1997 for Laura Biagiotti and Alberta Ferretti, continuingn later 90s for italian and international stylists like Gai Mattiolo, Rocco Barocco, Fausto Sarli, Paul Smith, Issey Miyake, Vivienne Westwood, Guy Laroche.
