Daniela Borges @ Nass Model Management Brazil / New York Model Management / Why Not Model Agency Milan
14 year old Daniela Borges officially began her third show season February at DNKY Fall 2008. That’s not a typo. A native of Curitiba, Brazil, Daniela was locally discovered by scout Marco Ganzaro and presented to the capable hands of Nass Model Management. She instantly grabbed our attention at Jill Stuart Fall 2007 (her second, all-black ensemble was rock chick gorgeous) and we’ve been chatting up a storm with our friend Nass booker Paulo Campos about her ever since.
Daniela is a fresh, beautiful brunette with strong features. There’s something Jessica Milleresque about her that particularly strikes us. It’s that look she can give. An innocence on the surface that barely covers a take-charge confidence within. Her profile is to die for thanks to her fashiongenic and those arched brows. She’s 177cm and her measurements are 81cm-62cm-86cm. Her amazing body is the result of being an avid dancer and from playing futebol. As if we needed another reason to love her!
Daniela is “mature, independent [and has an] incredible personality,” says Paulo. She loves this profession and puts her heart into it with the full support of her family. Because of her age, her runway appearances were limited last year (if you can call 8 shows in New York, 4 in Milan and 3 in Paris “limited”) and her education dictated the amount of print work she was able to shoot. But she’ll be 15 this July and is taking advantage of flexible schooling so we’ll be sure to see more.
Daniela is placed with New York Model Management, Why Not in Milan, Elite in Paris and Uno in Barcelona.
Our gratitude, as always, to Paulo and Emmanuel Nass for giving us our Daniela-fix!
