We are excited to announce our
May Model of the Month,
Anastasia!
Where are you from?
Originally I am from Moscow, Russia and now live in New York City
How did you get started in this field?
I was scouted through social media about 5 years ago and since then I've been working professionally as a model. I had been scouted a few times before, but modeling was something I never really considered to do. I wanted to finish my education in Hospitality Management first ... modeling was kind of like "okay, ill try it!" and here I am, doing it full time!
Who are some of your favorite icons that have influenced you?
Amber Valletta, Carolyn Murphy, and Claudia Schiffer are my all time favorite fashion icons. My biggest inspiration in life is the power of positivity, I always look up to strong women who manage to stay positive and spread joy no matter what
Hobbies?
I've always been into sports, but now I am obsessed with pilates! It is so beneficial for our bodies and you see results so quickly. I even considered becoming a certified pilates instructor. Among my other hobbies are baking, reading books, and spending time with my friends
Career Highlights?
I have been lucky enough to work with amazing clients and represent a variety of brands. I shot a holiday jewelry campaign for Neiman Marcus and Vogue last season, walked for Agatha Ruiz de la Prada and Wilfredo Gerardo during NYFW, modeled for Kohls, St. Johns knits, Anne Fontaine, and Christian Dior Beauty. I also landed the cover of my first French Magazine ... 2019 was very good to me
Long Term Goals?
My next goal is to continue my career as a model and book the jobs that I want the most. I am also always striving to be the best daughter, wife, and friend I can be!
