Great style, D. NOW Bravo sd it would be on sale to the public along with others....so far nothing!!!! What is up???????????

Tired of hearing about Daniella's attitude.. Hers was nothing compared to Reco's and Merlin's.. They were downright mean and bragged constantly and look where that got them> they even trashed the women every week. I hope the girls ditch them when they call!!!!!!!!! I liked how the women on this show stayed out of the trash talk that the men did..

How do I get a copy of the necklace you wore to the finale? The green, black, silver one? IT WAS AMAZING! so are you! :)

Thx.

Daniella, your passion and enthusiasm for fashion design is inspirational and contagious. In fact, I've caught the blogging bug! This is my first blog ever! So on this inaugural e-mail occasion I would like to THANK YOU for reminding me that expressing one's creativity is a Necessity NOT a luxury. Like breathing. You have exhibited great courage to pursue your dream in a very public forum. Good for you! I don't even know you and I'm proud of you! I was told long ago that "Feedback is your friend." Not an easy concept at any age. I encourage you to keep an open mind to all CONSTRUCTIVE criticism. Listen to the feedback, and if it's sound, act on it. If not, trust your gut! I checked out a book from the library titled, "Encouragement Changes Everything" by John C. Maxwell. It stresses the importance of encouraging individuals to go after their dreams. To me, this is CRITICAL in a creative field where many comments are so subjective that they can derail you, if you're not careful. I wish you all the best. Perhaps you have a website where we can watch your progress and give you a pep talk when you need one? And WE ALL need a pep talk now and then. GOOD LUCK! Yeah, I'm no longer a blog virgin!

I'm trying to get intouch with Daniella can some one send me and email and tell me how... I'm interested in getting a dress from her for Miss Univers pageant. PLEASE!!!!

Congrats Daniella!!!! I know we haven't talked in forever but I'm SO proud of you :) Sorry I couldn't watch the show (Alb and I don't have cable), but your pix are gorgeous and you're one talented and special chick!! You definitely deserve to go far!! xx

Daniella,
I was sooo hoping you would win so I could buy a few of your designs. Will you be selling them anywhere? Are you based in New York. Please let us know...I know you could sell so much of that fab collection!!!
Good Luck!

I think that you should have won. anna's collection was good,but i think you have more talent on what's going on in todays fashion.

Daniella, young fresh!!! Love your line and ideals Sholders have
always been my thing!!! You so should have won!!! Now I need to
know where and how I can buy your pieces!!!!!!!!

Congratulation. I am happy for you.
However, what bother me about this show is that most of the contestants and judges possess mean personalities. We can win without putting down others, without hurting others' feelings. Each pot has it's own lid. A cow will follow only a herd of cows. Each designer will his or her own fans. And in the fans' mind, that designer is the best.
Therefore, winning is relative, and loosing is also relative. Do not get too caught up by it.
Remember that everybody has feelings, just like you. Conflicts, disagreements, love, hatred, etc... all come from our minds, speech and actions.
Wishing you the best.

Daniella, congratulations to you, Anna and JamesPaul, if anything the reunion show proved that the top 3 picked have class, compassion and intelligence beyond their years. Reco, sat like the kid in school that didn't get his way so he wasn't going to participate,look at or forgive anyone just his own delusions. May God bless all 15 of you (Reco too), everyone deserves a dream to come true. By the way are you going to take the editor of Harpers up on her offer, what a pot of gold at the end of the show!

I think you are awesome!!! I absolutely love the shirt you wore in the second part of the finale! Where can I get it?!

OMG. Let me tell you. That I am your biggest fan. I loved evry single design of yours. I was really hoping you would win. But, I know that either you win or loose, I believe that you're going to be big. I for sure knows that everyone loves your work. Well, Good Luck in the Future.

Your Biggest Fan

Go, on, D! Take over the world!

I, for one, applaud your strong sense of self worth and confidence in your own creative vision. If Reco`s defensive pouting and inflated claim to immortal fame equal a "good attitude" then be glad they say you don`t have one. That "attitude" is the same cool edge that surfaces in the designs. Keep it!

Daniella - You are amazingly talented!!! My vote was for you...but what you can you do!!! You're already a star and your age has nothing to do with raw talent!!! Simply a-mazing!!!

Oh - and where can I get that wicked song you put together for your runway show??? Super Hot!!!

Daniella,  YOU ROCK!!! I agree with the judges' decision because I think their opinion was true to "The Fashion Show" criteria.  Yes, Anna's clothes are more "saleable"; I thought the premise of the show was to have the judges make the decisions.  I know the $125,000 would have been wonderful for you.  While your cash prize was much less, your real prize is having highly respected people in the industry believing in you.  I forgot whch judge said she had a couple of designers she wanted you to meet; isn't that worth more to your career than winning on votes from the viewers?If you are getting over your "sizism", I hope you will remember plus size women will want your clothes, too.  I'm a plus size, 56 year old, very far from red carpets, society balls, etc. and I would like to wear some of your designs.  I loved the grey evening gown with the crystals so much that, if I could, I would buy it.  I don't have anywhere to wear it with others, but I would wear it around the house because I love it so much!

Daniella,
What a talent you are. I agree with the judges choice. Keep up the good work. Even though I'm a little 67 year old grandma your artistic ability has inspired me both fashion wise and design wise. CONGRATULATIONS!

Daniella - you are the winner. NOt because I like your design, but as you see - masters like your creations too. Nobody got the offer from judges, but you. This is a winning ticket to Fashion World. Good Luck.

Congratulations!! You did a wonderful job on the show. I hope that $10,000 will help you continue your career/education, whatever.. You are so young and I loved the positive feedback and offers you received from the judges. They, obviously, see your potential, drive, and refreshing look at fashion. That is better than first prize, at your young age. I think they actually gave you a first class ticket/good advice, and contacts to success in the fashion world!!!!! Best Wishes in your successful future!!

I watched da show last night nd congrats on winning the judges award!!! Don't worry about not winning, because being on the fashion show gives you a headstart in your career!!!!!! :) Ur going places :) x 2
PS--- Through out the season i could totally tell what message you were trying to give with your designs: modern,youthful, fresh, sophisticated :) x 3

Daniella, I guess I am not the average 47 year old woman because of the accolades that Anna received instead of you. Had it been up to me, as with the judges, there was no comparison. I would not have considered buying Anna's clothing because I found the pieces lacking in sophistication and vision.

Your clothing on the other hand, when I saw the final collection, made me brim with excitement. The look was strong, but feminine, shapely, sexy; I love your use of soft fabrics with sharp details, and the emphasis on showcasing the shoulders and the shape of a woman's body. Feel of the fabric is very important to me and I could feel the fabrics in your pieces through the television screen: the leather, the silk, the chiffon.

In my humble opinion, you do bring something to the fashion industry that I wish more designers were selling. During the past few years I have been disappointed by what is being sold in the US. I wind up not buying anything, but instead coveting what I already own. If someone in the US retail market were selling your designs, frankly, I would be buying. I want to put something on that is fresh and makes me feel beautiful and celebrate the fact I am a modern woman.

Tim and Isaac, can you please hire Daniella to work for Liz Claiborne? Thank you! By the way, I also love Jean Paul's collection, like Fern, and I would wear his clothes as well.

i have the same shirt that you wore on the finale!! forever 21... i would expect you to wear your own design..

Daniella, I loved all of your work! You are extremely talented, and will go a long way. I absolutely loved the hood/scarf that you created. Is there any way to order that or possibly obtain one somehow? I HAVE to have it!!!! Congratulations!

Daniella, I loved many of your clothing designs. BUT I am very interested in the design you wore to the finale. Was it yours? I am so into the black and white look but not into the whole zebra thing, frankly I think the animal print thing is out. I am very much a Chanel fan and a fan of the classics. I am not into the whole avant guarde thing. Thank you for being true to yourself and sticking to your gut even though it was gutsy. I loved the grey gown and especially how you did the beading and the neckline with a bear shoulder, it all worked. I think it would work in m/any colors. Please let me know about your design you wore to the finale and if I can get it on Bravo or where/how/when....Thank you darling!

Daniella, you have a fresh vision that comes through week after week that is wearable by women of all ages not just the youthful few that have a fabulous shape. I'll definitely be looking for more about you in the future.

Keep on keepin on you'll be greater than you are now, I look forward to that day. I also thought your collection was more of a collection that could be sold in a single department of a single store vs Annas' collection.

Kat

Daniella. I just loved your collection. I really want to be a designer myself! This is what I really want to do in my life. I just love everything you create. You are so creative and know what women want to wear today especially me! Everything that you created is what I would wear(when im older of course!) I hope you read this so you know that you are appreciated and everyone loves you. You seem like a great friend and I would love to see you one day and learn about you! Anyways, just keep on doing what you love because everyone loves what you create! Work hard!

Daniella the long gray dress with the jeweled neckline that came around from the back of the neck...loved it and need to get my hands on one! Where can I get that dress? If I could get one in white I'd wear it for my wedding!!!
Let me know!
Thanks!

Daniella, you are amazing! tonight on the finale when they showed the clip of you during the season, which song was that playing in the background?

Daniella,

U can sew your behind off. But your attitude sucks. I even voted for u. Because I am about the truth. Just take a look at how u present you self to people.

Daniella, when you made the dress with the crystals that went over the the neck that dress was so pretty i know i would buy it! good luck!!!!

Age don't got s#!% to do with talent and unique abilities in fashion design. Being the youngest contestant on "The Fashion Show" shouldn't be as significant as your collections, by which I loved a few of your dresses. YOU REPRESENT!, esp. for all the 22 yr olds with talent. (I'm 22 also, lol) Also, I think you're real pretty, just wanted to add to that.

daniella,
you are very beautiful and i always love your designs! I hope you win! PLEASE, BLOG and tell where you get your jewelry (ESPECIALLY YOUR RINGS!)

I agree with Kathy and feel you are too young and would benefit from studying under a real designer for a couple of years. You have talent but it's not there yet!

Your designs are okay but you could benefit from studying in Europe with a real designer for a year or 2. I think the guest judge on the final 4 episode got it wrong. No matter who wins the it has to be bittersweet since you didn't compete against the best-RECO! and no Reco and I are not related.

Daniella; I believe you are to young still. I see a lot of potentil, you will come into a time when you will know what I mean and you will feel it and no one will touch you. I know you have worked hard and the grey gown although some people said it was drab and dull was awesome and stick to what you feel. We are all behind you-but you are still too young. Keep going-you will realize what I mean in mid 30's. You are at a great starting point! Love what you have done so far!!!

Your are too young. Maturity carries a weight of knowing all body types and interests although I see alot of potentiel in you at 22 I believe after seeing all shows on Bravo; I feel given a few years to mature like a fine wine at maybe 35 you will really, really be IT. But not now. Things take time although you feel like you have worked so hard which you have, some day you will agree there comes a time when you just know you have arrived and that has not happened for you yet but it is coming. Congratulations on all you have done do far. The grey gown was awesome even tho people thought it would not be at first... in the end it was really the best one out there. We love you keep it up.

hello I really love the hood you designed can you direct me to were I can place an order ...

Your designs are very trendy and different. You will be very successful.

I believe alot of the designers underestimated you. You obviously are very creative, although, I did not particularly care for most of your designs. Your final collection was not very "real woman" type of stuff. I personally don't know anyone who would wear plastic looking shoulders, but ok. You have a terrible attitude, and I don't someone so mean spirited should win. I did love the song you created, and your whole collection was interwoven and flowed with your theme. I like that you did the jewelry etc. You definitely have a whole picture and are on the track towards success. It is a good thing you can do it all because I am not sure you will find anyone who really likes you or can work for you. Basically, you need some life and people skills before you are ready to be a success. Although, you may crave success, enjoying it all alone it might not be as sweet as you thought.

Daniella, you are still young and have some growing up to do about different types of body sizes. For you to say that you would have preferrd for your already stick figured model to be even thinner in the final, was a bit insulting and unrealistic in the real world. For you to make any type of real money you will have to change your mindset. One your not thin and two you cannot properly tailor clothing to a thin woman. Get it together girlfriend.

I knew you would be in the finals when i watched the very first episode! You are fabulous. The soundtrack that you made was amazing, you should get it on itunes. I would buy it in a heartbeat.

xoxo

i Want The Song that Played during ur collection its was amazing

i don't know if your personality is really as it is portrayed on the show or if it's just crafty editting on the producers part but you need to take you attitude down just a peg. i love your designs and think you're talented but you attitude gets in the way.

You are the WINNER! Your collection was SICK! And you making your own jewelry, and sound track for the runway event, was off the CHARTS! Go Daniella!

DANIELLA JUST WANT 2 TELL U UR THE BEST U ILL WIN I KNOW IT MAKE ME HAPPY SEE WHAT U MAKE , U ILL BE , , WISH U WIN ILL KEEP A PRADE 4 U , LOVE U 201 598 3321

I thought it was totally rad that you also designed the music for your show.

I would love to see some fashions made with fancy wide ribbons...
washable of course and practical with
fabrics that are easy to care for.
Cottons
terry cloth [ with some mettalic threads in it]
in fact many daytime casual sets with the mettalic threads woven in them...
and tons of pockets
maybe a few casual cargo shorts/skirts/skorts/pants/
jackets/coats/sweaters/
i love the casual look of cargo clothing...

YOU DESERVE TO WIN

YOUR THE BEST

Congrats, Daniella!!!
You certainly deserve to be in the finals and have been my fav designer since the beginning. Your looks are so fresh, creative, and modern!!! It's great to see that the best and most consistent designer is there in the end...
I hope that you win as you have been the best all season!!!
And just ignore the people who criticize your attitude, Most of us think you are just Fabulous, Darling (as Issac would say, lol) But no matter what, believe in yourself and know that you do know what you are doing and I'm sure you'll have a wonderful career in fashion!!!

Congradulation Daniella!

I love your design since the first episode, your design is the best among the others, especially TREE HUGGERS!
I love it so much!!!

I hope to buy your design @ Malaysia too!

You have been my favorite designer from the beginning! I LOVE the attitude. You know you're great and why should you hide that?!? I wish you all the success in the world and look forward to wearing designs made by you.

You definitely need to expand your size if you expect anyone to wear it. . . personally I'm not into the rock/punk/masculine look. But that's just me. I like clothes that make me feel pretty and beautiful as a Woman. I don't need masculine clothes to make me feel powerful. But I like your creativity. Remember to stay humble however, nobody wants to buy clothes from a snob. I prefer Reco and Anna's collection, but I did like your gray dress.

I absolutely loved the song you made and used for the final fashion show. I would love to be able to download it. Any possibilities it will be made available???? please....

i really think she is great!!
i love her collection!!
im not sure if i would wear all of it...
but i did like it!!
im so proud of her because she
is the youngest one!!
GOOD JOB DANI!!
hope u win!!

I think your attitude and designs are wonderful. How anyone could think your attitude is horrible and simultaneously find Rico charming is beyond me.

You are the genuine talent. You have a great eye in design. I wish you luck from all my heart. You ar ethe Winner no matter what happend.

You are so multi-talented! The fact that you did the music, the accessories and the fashions for your collection was inspiring. It was a strong collection by a strong young woman. I am rooting for you.

I LOVED your collection!!! UNFORTUNATELY, I can't wear it!!!!!

In my younger (20's) days I would definitely bought EVERYTHING that you designed. Isaac even told you that you needed to expand out of the size ZERO line. Remember, the average size of a woman is NOT size ZERO. In fact (not to be mean), I doubt if you could wear some of the designs.

Please try to 'expand' into the real world so the rest of us can enjoy your work.

You're good, but Reco was better.

You are a great designer but your collection was too monotone.

Your attitude is perfect for a reality tv show...hopefully everyone will eventually know you by your design and not your attitude.

I really loved your final pieces. You are very talented-wow! Not so sure about your personality but this is a fashion show not really a personality show. I would choose you to win because of the complete style and overall stellar magnificence, but I'm afraid I could never see myself personally wearing much of it. I would choose Anna to win because her style is more like mine and what I normally choose to wear. And then I would choose James Paul to win because of his great mind and great heart that he puts into every piece. All 3 of you guys are winners! Good luck!
xoxox

You haven't won yet Daniella. You're definitely are talented, but your attitude is atrocious. I, as a member of the shopping public, am not going to reward such behavior by buying your clothes; it would reinforce your elitism and skewed perception of yourself- you are no Issac yet!

Daniella, your designs show an edgy creativity that I really love. They are unique, detailed pieces and therefore really stand out as the winning runway show to me.

I believe all of you are truly talented designers. John Paul is absolutely, really a genius! Anna is amazing! Her clothes are so beautiful. Rico is fabulous, though some of the pieces in his final runway show were not as strong as his work during the show. All of you are extremely talented and all of you are winners! You should all be very proud.

I would like to point out how happy I was that all of you final runway designers treated each other with genuine kindness and support. Bravo!

Hi there!
Congratulations!!! I've been rooting for you since day 1 and I know you're going to win. You are simply the best!
So proud of you and so happy that your dream is coming true.
God Bless you and keep creating your beautiful clothes.
~~Take good care~~

I loved the gray dress Daniella did tonight!! Glad she made it to the finals, not suprised. I was surprised Ricco didn't make it into the final 3. Anna is talented but her clothing are a little drab. Good luck guys but I think Daniella will win this one!!!

The grey dress was very pretty. I am hoping your attitude has been misrepresented on the show to create some drama. A person can be driven and assertive, but still be kind. Hopefully this will come to you over time.

FINALLY, a designer that starts a momentum in the fashion world, rather than just following a momentum.

Your final collection was AMAZING!

Hi Daniella, love all of your designs they are truly young and very modern for the world we live in. God Bless you and work on your attitude I am sure it will improve in time. :]

Congratulations, Daniella... I've been rooting for you since the beginning. Your work is lovely. I am, however, torn among the other finalists. I would NEVER want to be in your position going against Anna and Reco. I really like James Paul, but I'm afraid I do not understand his concepts.

Reco can be a brat, but does manifest talent. Anna is a wonderful designer. I can't wait until the finale starts this coming Thursday.

Best of luck with the competition. I will be there cheering for you all the way!

I loved the dress! As soon as I saw it I HAD TO have it. When I went to the website to purchase it, I noticed that the dress being sold is not quite the same, and the changes that were made took out parts of the dress that I truely loved most! Why is that? Is there any way the original dress design will be available for purchase?

Jen

Daniella - Your work is wonderful!! I also went to the site to purchase the grey gown, but the changes that have been made to your original design have made it "blah". Even the colors of the stones aren't as beautiful. The way you had the beading going to the other shoulder was outstanding, and that has been removed on the version that we can purchase........Oh, well - We can always watch for your "true" designs later!

Good luck to you!!

So glad to see you in the finals.. Go Girls!! The men in this show are the most whiny, critical men I have ever seen.. worse than the men on Project Runway!! So glad that the women cut through the drama without punching one of these nasty/womanizing men out!! All they did/do was brag and spew their venom towards all of the women. Well, I think the women, mainly you and Anna, are the only ones who have made clothing that women would actually wear..and, unlike Project Runway, this show did have the premise that these clothes have to be "wearable/sellable".. not just works of art to show on a model/runway or hang on a wall. I hope it's between you and Anna..

daniella-

you are a very talented designer and i will be surprised if you do not win. and on this episode i was feeling the same thing as you while watching it. i thought i was dreaming. i just love what you design and your personality. you are a really driven,strong,bubbly,and sweet person. and even if you don't win i know you are going to become a very, very well known designer.
Best of luck,
lindsey

Daniella,

Beautiful dress! Congrats on the win and good luck in the finals. You are a very talented designer but I really wish you would work on your less then steller attitude.
Again, congrats!!

Danielle,
You are such an amazing designers!! Love ur evening gown very classy and sophisticated.Don't let these male designers w/ big mouth put you down.. Believe in ur self!!! Can't wait to see yah in the FINALE!!!

Daniella:

The gown was beautiful. Great job! Wish they had kept your design for the one that is on sale. Do not like the changes. Seems like same old, same old. Your design was truly stunning and I really, really like the grey.

Daniella you are FANTASTIC! Your designs are sophisticated, modern and lovely. I picked u to win the first day as I could see that u are your designs. Loved how u defended yourself against some of the male designers who were very much out of line...Best of luck to you. Breathe :) Dianne

you go girl

I am so happy!!! Daniella is my favorite! I hope that you can beat Anna, even though she is talented in her own areas. Do your best!

For the record, I love Daniella's attitude--it's the same as mine! She's a great designer and this evening gown was really, truly stunning. It was awesome that she stuck with her gut with the gray, because in any other color it wouldn't have been as breath-taking. Excellent work, Daniella =]

how much is the grey evening gown selling for? The site will not load on my computer.
thanks

You can have the most drop-dead fabulous collection in the world and because of your attitude I would never buy it.

i loved the dress !! you need to just start going with your gut instinct and believe in YOURSELF !!! yes ! it did look "GLoomy " at first but you turned it into something Dazzling !!!
way to go !!!!

and

GoodLuck !

You are not dreaming!

That was beautiful, it took my breath away when it first came out on the runway. Elegant, chic, sober, unique. It really reminded one of a cloudy sky and shiny drops of rain. Whatever inspiration you tapped into, keep doing the same.

This is the first time that I really like one of your designs, it was, without a doubt the best.

You also seem to have changed, for the best. You were so much nicer and "normal" this week. Is that the real you? I like it much better.

After that design I can really see you doing great in the final show. Good luck.

Most of Daniella's designs are pretty good, but much safer than Anna's. i cannot help but feel that they have been done before. Not as a copy at all, but as a style in general. They lack in originality. However, her grey gown was beautiful in its simplicity and class. It was funny to see both her and Anna's dress, which could not have been more different, chosen as the best two! Also, Daniella can certainly saw very well, no doubt about that. there is a market out there for her.

Daniella, your gray evening gown is absolutely beautiful...I'm a frequent purchaser of evening dresses and I've never seen something so innovative yet wearable. I went to the Bravo website to buy it, but the mass-produced version doesn't seem to have the crystal beading going around to the other shoulder, which in my opinion was the dress's most unique asset. What gives?

You are truly talented, but I can't believe that you actually tried to defend Johnny. It makes me question your integrity because true friends let someone know when they are dead wrong. And he was dead wrong and then tried to blame it on Angel... you know if that had been Merlin in the same situation you would have come out with guns ablaze.

Congrats on your last dress. It is really beautiful, but I don't wear gray well. I would have preferred it in red or even just black. But the design is great. You are young, hopefully your attitude will improve over time.

I don't like your attitude,but you definitely have talent.
