We always admired the fashion brand Guess…and its management’s nimble abilities to reinvent its image-from that of a strictly denim’s story (so 80’s)-to a full collection with smart brand extensions- that are trend driven, affordable-and nip at the heels of big name designers in terms of quality.
So it’s nice to see not only Guess, Inc. make money this past quarter (in this retail environment!!!!) but also to see brothers Maurice and Paul Marciano’s upscale runway slick clothing line “Marciano”- adopted by fashionable celebs without coddling from their stylists. We love the red (Ginger) hot Spice Girl Geri Halliwell- fresh off the ladies’ smash hits’ sold out tour- and think she looks terrif wearing Marciano’s Alexander Moto jacket (retails USD $246).
Now regular consumers have absolute proof and more reason to look for Marciano’s garb-at the eponymous boutiques or online.
