Diaconu was age 11 when a local scout first approached her to enter the field of modeling before she began modeling part-time while in high school. The last time she was approached to become a model, she decided to pursue the offer as she needed wanted money to go to a karate camp. If she were not a model, she has described her dream job as either a karate instructor, translator, or surfer. Other than one show in London at age 13, Diaconu first showed on the runway during Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2007 at age 15. She later moved to New York when she was 20 years old.[5][6][7]
