For 33 years at RAI where she was one of the first women to lead TG2, special correspondent in news, editor-in-chief, author of reportages, daily and weekly columns such as "Diogene", "Anni d'argento", "L'alfabeto dei giovani" and a programme entitled "Stile", for Rete 2. A storm reporter, she has dealt with mafia and n'drangheta wars with the 'Reggio case' and the protection of the rights of citizens and minors by bringing to light phenomena such as paedophilia, petty crime and violence.
Since 1994, she has been a fashion critic, reporting - from New York, Paris, London, Milan, Florence and Rome - in an ironic and cutting way on the fashion system from an economic, sociological and costume point of view.
After Rai, she went online using social media as an interactive tool to open a dialogue with the protagonists of Made in Italy and talk about the revolution taking place in the sector. In March 2020, during the first lockdown, she created 'Un caffè con Mariella', a live column on Instagram.
