Women of Americana Series
Amanda Rousso on Style, Shopping, and Breaking Fashion Rules
March 4, 2025
As we celebrate International Women’s Day and Women’s History Month, we’re shining a spotlight on the incredible women shaping the fashion scene at The Americana. First up in our Women of Americana series: Amanda Rousso, the powerhouse boutique manager of Scanlan Theodore.
With 17 years of experience in the fashion industry, Amanda has mastered the art of shopping, styling, and creating an unforgettable retail experience. When she’s not curating timeless, sophisticated wardrobes for clients, you might find her sipping on an unsweetened black tea from Young’s Farm—her go-to pick-me-up before a busy day at The Americana.
SHHH…..
So, what’s Amanda’s best-kept secret at The Americana? The personal shopping team, Tiffany Hsieh & Lucianna Bartellino! If you haven’t experienced their expertise yet, consider this your sign.
Breaking Fashion Norms & Signature Staples
Amanda loves to break the fashion rule that denim-on-denim is a no-go. She embraces the double-denim trend with confidence, proving that fashion is all about self-expression.
When asked how she would dress up a simple white tee, Amanda’s answer was effortlessly chic: a tulle skirt paired with a statement necklace. The perfect mix of feminine and bold!
Scanlan Theodore’s Must-Haves
Her wardrobe essential? Any of Scanlan Theodore’s signature crepe knit jackets—a timeless staple that elevates any look. Speaking of instant outfit elevation, she recommends the store’s cropped denim jeans for that effortless, polished vibe.
If Scanlan Theodore had a signature cocktail….
Amanda imagines it would be The Scanlan Spritz—undoubtedly sophisticated and refreshing, just like the brand itself.
Packing like a Pro
For those who love to travel, Amanda’s top three fashion must-haves are the Crepe Knit Drape Front Jacket, Micro Crepe Knit Trouser, and Crepe Knit Singlet—versatile pieces that ensure you look stylish from takeoff to touchdown.
Style Muse
And when it comes to fashion inspiration? She turns to influencers who push boundaries and redefine style with confidence.
Beyond the Role: Amanda Rousso
Amanda Rousso is more than her role as boutique manager—she’s a tastemaker, a trendsetter, and an inspiration to women who want to express themselves fearlessly through fashion.
