Daniela Pestova, born October 14, 1970, expected few of her dreams to come true when she was young. Growing up during a time of political chaos and the Iron Curtain would have a large effect on anyone's dreams. However she (and the rest of the world) was lucky enough to be in the right spot at the right time. She had plans of attending college and majoring in Education. However that all changed when she was discovered in Prague by Dominique Caffin of the Madison modeling agency at age 19. He convinced her to enter a modeling contest and she won. She was then taken to Paris to sign on with his agency. In 1990 Daniela's looks were admired by Paul Marciano, president and creative director of GUESS?, Inc. He has a reputation for picking out the yet undiscovered faces that will become the supermodels of today. She then participated in some of the most memorable GUESS? campaign advertisements in the history of the company. She was photographed along side Claudia Schiffer and the photos were taken by llen Von Unwerth in Morocco. All this in only one year after leaving her homeland. In 1992, without speaking a word of English but fluent in Italian, Russian, French and Czech, she moved to New York. She graced the covers of Cosmopolitan, Elle, Marie Claire and Glamour soon after. She then landed a huge contract with L'Oréal, becoming a spokesperson and print model. She also began a long-running relationship with Victoria's Secret. Agencies: New York - Elite, Milan - Elite, London - Elite Premier

She used to be married to Tommaso Buti. He is the Italian CEO of the Fashion Café.

She has one son, Yannick Fausto.

She can earn up to $12,000 a day, or $2 million a year
