Bio

Daniel Franco is a native of Los Angeles, California.

He holds both a bachelor of fine arts degree from Otis College of Art and Design and an A.A. in fashion design from the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising.

In 1995 he received critical acclaim when he was voted Best Designer in a nationwide contest for fashion students by The Fashion Group International. He received top honors in both the career and the leisure categories.

By 1999 he had broadened his designing experience by working in New York City as a fashion forecaster, assisting Richard Tyler and designing for BCBG.

The same year Daniel Franco designed his first clothing line, which was sold exclusively through Saks Fifth Avenue.

He took a five-year hiatus from the fashion industry to run his family’s business when his father took ill, but returned to the fashion world as a contestant on the first season of Project Runway.

His experience on the show inspired him to relaunch the Daniel Franco collection with his first fashion show. His debut was well received by buyers, media and critics alike, which motivated him to return to TV for another chance at Project Runway.
