Background:

Daniela was discovered in Prague at age 19 by Dominique Caffin of Madison agency. She had planned to study for a degree in Education. Daniela has had two calendars and appeared in the Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition in 1995 and 1998, and was the cover model in 1995. She has earned the nickname The Chameleon for being able to change her look easily and describes herself as a health-freak. Daniela has thought of becoming a translator once she finishes modeling. She is married to Tommaso Buti, the CEO of the Fashion Café and they have a son, Yannick Fausto. Daniela also has two Jack Russell terriers, Tino and Soda.

Daniela came from a well to do family in the former Czechoslovakia. Shortly after signing with Madison, she found that it would be more beneficial for her to sign with a U.S. agency. She moved to New York and jumped over to Spectrum, until the company dissolved. She then signed with Elite. She is known mostly for her pictures in the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issues and Victoria's Secret. She is most proud of making the cover of SI in 1995. Daniela is an excellent linguist and would like to see her talent used after her career as a model. She knows Russian, French, Italian, and Czech. At the height of her modeling career, she did not know a word of English, but today speaks it perfectly with only a hint of an accent. Also, when she first began, booking a job for her was very difficult due to her country being Communist. She is currently married to Tomasso Buti, the CEO of the Fashion Cafe. She recently had a son named Yanick Fausto, who is 4 months old. She has earned the name of "The Chameleon" for continuously changing her look.
