Born in Treviglio, Italy, Dominique Daniela Pino-Santiago embraced fashion design as a child. Growing-up watching her maternal grandparents custom-make everyday sportswear and specialty formalwear, Dominique Daniela knew she was destined for a career in couture.

Dominique Daniela honed her skills at Marist College, in Poughkeepsie,NY where she received her Bachelor's in Professional Studies. She extended her education in international design at the Instituto Marangoni in Milan, Italy and the London College of Fashion in London, England. Dominique Daniela's collegiate career culminated with being recognized with Marist's Silver Needle Fashion Show elite award - Most Outstanding Design Student. She now proudly serves as a member of the Advisory Committee for the Marist Fashion Program and serves as a design critic for seniors in the program.

In October 2000, Dominique Daniela channeled her passion for custom formal wear and bridal design into her own label, Dominique Daniela, Inc. Dominique Daniela uses a unique infusion of domestic tradition and international elegance into each of her designs. She works alongside each client to create a distinctive garment that is as unique as her client.

In January 2004, Dominique Daniela, Inc. opened its first showroom. The Manhattan-based atelier offers her clients the perfect locale for private consultations and fittings. Being located in the heart of New York's garment district affords her clientele the opportunity to participate in every aspect of the garment creation: from inception to design to dress form. From the selection of textiles to trimmings, Dominique Daniela's inclusive approach to design enables the client the unique opportunity of creating a very special garment.

In March 2008 Dominique Daniela opened her first store front boutique in New Hope, PA. The Women's Boutique carries everyday styles as well as her custom designs. Dominique Daniela currently resides in Pennsylvania with her husband, daughter, and son.
