Nastya Kostova — full name Anastasia Kostova — is a Russian fashion model represented by METRO Models, Switzerland's largest model agency, headquartered in Zurich. Placed on the agency's prestigious Main board, she stands among an international roster of over 400 models who together define the agency's reputation for producing versatile, world-class talent. With luminous blue eyes and naturally lustrous light brown hair, she brings a classic yet thoroughly modern quality to every project she undertakes — a quality that the camera finds immediately, and that the most discerning clients return to consistently.
METRO Models was founded in Zurich in 2010 by owner and director David Ratmoko and has grown, in the years since, into Switzerland's largest modeling agency — a globally recognised presence on models.com, a licensed member of the VSM, and a trusted partner for leading brands across Europe and beyond. What distinguishes it from other model agencies is a philosophy that refuses to reduce its models to a set of measurements: each talent is developed and presented as a complete professional, with career biography, personality, and achievement given equal weight alongside portfolio specifications. It is this philosophy that has shaped how Nastya Kostova is positioned within the competitive international market — not as simply a face, but as a sustained and serious creative professional.
Switzerland's position as the world's luxury capital — home to Richemont, Swatch Group, Cartier, Rolex, Omega, and Patek Philippe — means that models represented by METRO Models gain access to luxury brand opportunities that are simply unavailable through model agencies elsewhere in Europe. Nastya Kostova benefits directly from this environment, which channels top-tier commercial and editorial work through the agency year-round, giving her career a reach and a quality of booking that few agency placements can match.
As a Main board model, Nastya Kostova is available for the full range of professional modeling engagements — luxury campaigns, fashion editorial, e-commerce, bridal, swimwear, and catalogue work among them. Her clean, striking features and refined bearing make her adaptable across the wide range of aesthetics demanded by METRO Models' clients, which span marketing directors, casting directors, photographers, and production companies across Switzerland, Germany, and the broader European market. Her light brown hair and blue eyes offer a versatility that suits both the cool, architectural precision of luxury fashion editorial and the warmth required of lifestyle and commercial work — a combination that the most commercially sophisticated clients understand to be among the rarest and most valuable a model can possess.
METRO Models maintains a rigorous standard for models placed on its Main board, selecting only those who demonstrate the professionalism, adaptability, and visual consistency required for sustained careers in international modeling. Nastya Kostova's placement within this division is not incidental — it is a considered and deliberate recognition of the calibre she brings to every project, every brief, and every creative collaboration she undertakes. The agency has developed many of its talents into recognisable faces in the global fashion world, with appearances in campaigns, editorials, and television commercials that speak to the breadth and quality of what Main board representation makes possible.
For a Russian model of Nastya Kostova's quality and range, representation through a Zurich-based agency of METRO's international stature opens access to a remarkably broad market. The agency's collaboration with partner agencies around the world means that its models can be booked for almost any location, giving their careers a genuinely global reach while remaining grounded in the world's most concentrated luxury ecosystem. The combination of international opportunity and the unique Swiss luxury market is one that few agency placements anywhere in the world can replicate — and it is the foundation upon which Nastya Kostova continues to build a career of lasting distinction.
