In this episode of the Style POV, I sit down with Anastasia Souris—better known as the Denim Curator—to talk about how she’s turned a lifelong love of denim into a signature style that’s both personal and deeply considered.
With a background in marketing and PR for brands like Victoria’s Secret, Steve Madden, and Michael Kors, Anastasia brings an editorial eye to everything she wears. We chat about how her career shaped her style, what drew her to vintage denim in the first place, and why finding the perfect pair of jeans is often more about patience than perfection.
She shares how her Denim Edit series became a go-to resource for fashion lovers, and how she uses storytelling, craftsmanship, and a sense of self to guide what she wears. We also get into wedding planning, community accountability in fashion, and the ongoing tug-of-war between trends and gut instinct.
If you’ve ever wanted to shop more intentionally—or simply understand what makes denim so iconic—this conversation is full of tips, stories, and inspiration.
