Paul Marciano: In the “light” new allegations of sexual assault received by models from the co-founder of Guess

Salo have sparked new allegations of sexual assault that have seen the “light” of publicity and concern Guess fashion designer and co-founder Paul Marciano.

Represented by lawyer Lisa Bloom, four women working as models, including Amanda Rodriguez, spoke last week about their personal experiences with Paul Marciano, one of the two brothers who founded the American brand.

In a press conference given by Lisa Bloom, she stated characteristically: “I do not know of any other company with this number of complaints against a prominent executive for serious sexual harassment and sexual assaults that continue to occupy him. “

The company, according to the Athens News Agency, has faced increasing pressure from the public and its shareholders to reconsider Marciano’s position, following a series of allegations of sexual assault since 1994. The supermodel Kate Upton also appeared in 2018 along with many other women and described in detail their own experiences with the fashion mogul.

Marciano resigned from his post on the board but became creative director

Following strong reactions to the allegations, Marciano resigned as CEO, but the brand and the American fashion designer continued to deny all allegations. The company reinstated Marciano as creative director just a year later.

Now, a series of new allegations could force the company to reconsider its decision, as it continues to conduct an internal investigation following the launch of an anti-sexual harassment and violence campaign by one of its key shareholders seeking the removal of both Paul and and Maurice Marciano.
