Aussie Model, One of "Sexiest Men Alive," Releases Calendar
Robert Doyle READ TIME: 3 MIN.
NEW YORK - Daniel Garofali is one of Australia's hardest working male models. His Italian chiseled features and sculptured body, makes him a hot commodity in the Fashion and Entertainment Industry, as well as one of '2011's Sexiest Men Alive'.
On a quick visit to New York City in late 2010, Daniel was immediately signed to Willhelmina Models after being introduced to the president of the top model firm. Daniel returned home and packed his bags for the Big Apple.
Daniel is not all just good looks, though. With his innate sense of marketing, branding and social media, he has created and built his career over the past few years with tens of thousands of fans across the globe following his every move. Daniel has been called the "World's First Social Media Supermodel."
In October 2011, Daniel Garofali fans will be able to purchase, through his online store, the exclusive 2012-2013 Daniel Garofali Calendar with a "Making of" DVD shot by renowned Sydney based photographer, James Demitri.
Daniel says: "I am really flattered I have such a huge following of loyal fans and I always make sure take the time to thank them individually through my social networks. I am honored and grateful. We created this Calendar because they have been asking for some time and I really wanted to contribute to a worthy cause as well!"
Daniel is donating 50% of the profits from the Calendar to KIVA.org - a non-profit organization with a mission to connect people through lending to alleviate poverty. Leveraging the internet and a worldwide network of microfinance institutions, Kiva lets individuals lend as little as $25 to help create opportunity around the world.
Daniel adds: "It's a fun industry to be working in but you have to work hard and constantly evolve and adapt - not only to the fashion trends but also with technology. Now that I am living in New York, I have been collaborating with the best photographers and creative teams, I love pushing the boundaries of the relationship between fashion, art and technology. There are some exciting projects in the pipeline!"
The Daniel Garofali 2012-2013 Calendar and DVD is available from www.danielgarofali.com at $39.95 AUS with worldwide shipping.
