HISTORY?

1. 
2. GUESS? started in 1981 as a small California jeans company. GUESS? designs, markets and distributes its full collections of women's and men's apparel throughout the United States and Canada. The company has successfully granted licenses for the manufacture and distribution of many of its product categories, including kids & baby apparel, watches, footwear, belts, fragrance, jewelry, swimwear, handbags, small leather goods, eyewear, and leather apparel. GUESS? has licensees and distributors in Europe, South America, Asia, Africa and the Middle East.

 The Marciano brothers would change that perception forever. Their designs were timeless, sensuous, strong and chic. Bloomingdale's finally agreed to sell two-dozen pairs of the 3-zip Marilyn jean as a favor to the Marciano brothers. Within hours, the entire stock was sold out. The GUESS? label was born and would become one of the world's most recognized and influential brand names.
GUESS? quickly infiltrated popular culture and became an icon of the generation. GUESS? also created famous models such as Claudia Schiffer, Carrè Otis, Eva Herzigova, Laetitia Casta, Carla Bruni, and Naomi Campbell launched their careers in the original GUESS? campaigns.
With striking images and fresh new products, the brand gained momentum and nationwide recognition.
