48. Marianthi Vlachos - Founder of Hellenic Aesthetic

In this episode of Greece Chats Podcast with Tony Kariotis, I am joined by Marianthi Vlachos, founder of Hellenic Aesthetic. Marianthi Vlachos is a Greek-American jewelry designer, retail entrepreneur and founder of Hellenic Aesthetic, America’s first store dedicated solely to Greek fashion. With it’s e-shop launch in 2017 and the opening of its brick and mortar boutique in New York City in 2021, Hellenic Aesthetic is the premiere shopping platform for Greek brands in the USA and beyond. Marianthi not only hand selects each item available at Hellenic Aesthetic but also designs Hellenic Aesthetic’s fine jewelry collection, leather goods and many other items. Her pieces evoke her nostalgia and love for all things Greek, from Greek key jewelry to vintage inspired tourist t-shirts. Most recently, Marianthi cofounded Rise With Apollo, a specialty coffee company where she serves as Creative Director. -- You can learn more about Marianthi and Hellenic Aesthetic at: https://www.hellenicaesthetic.com https://www.instagram.com/marianthiv -- Greece Chats Podcast with Tony Kariotis is brought to you by: ⁠https://www.greece-media.com⁠ ⁠https://www.greece-media.com/greecechats⁠
