Victoria Traina was born into a legendary family. Her mother is a best-selling novelist Danielle Steel who passed on her glamorous genes and extensive couture collections to her daughters. All are now separately making statements in the fashion industry on both coasts. Victoria came to New York about five years ago and cultivated acclaim for her style from Vogue, Vanity Fair, Elle and Teen Vogue. She helped to develop collection of a close friend Alexander Wang and has been one of the obvious muses to the Proenza Schouler brand. At only 23, she already developed a strong following (Traina is a 2006 Dress of the Year nominee) and expect to keep hearing her name for years to come.

The most important moment of my life has been… I have many important moments to come…
Something no one would guess about me is that I… know how to skateboard and my close friends and family call me Toto (it’s a nickname that has stuck since I was a baby).
If I could live in someone else’s biography it would be… Everyone has baggage… prefer to carry my own. I love my life the way it is!
