"GUESS? has always been
forward as far as technology
is concerned. We want to
be first. That's always been
our mission. So now we're
putting the latest account-
ing systems in place. And as
far as getting merchandise
out the door, getting our
customers what they
want... we have always
tried to be at the forefront."

GUESS? Advertising
Los Angeles
10 years on the job
"The GUESS? Advertising
team collaborates with
many talented people from
all over the Company. The
Design, Merchandising
and Public Relations teams
are all part of a very large
lineup of capable people
who contribute to our suc-
cess. Working in GUESS?
Advertising can be very
demanding. It's a job that
often tests your strength
and courage. But I like that.
In fact, I wouldn't want to
work for a Company that
offered anything less."

"This Company has a very
entrepreneurial spirit. The
people who tend to do well
here, are those who want
to be challenged. I think
that is one of the things
that makes us cutting edge.
Sometimes I hear us charac-
terized as a `young' culture.
After twenty years, we've
been able to retain that
youthful spirit, while building
an experienced work force.
It's an unusual combination."

"I started out as a sales per-
son sixteen years ago and
today I'm a manager. Some
of my customers have been
coming to the store since
1984. I'm really proud that
we have so much more
merchandise in the store
now: t-shirts, long-sleeve
shirts, hats, belts, eyewear
and Baby GUESS?. And our
handbags are selling like
crazy right now. I think
there's a spirit here. That's
why our customers come
back again and again. What
can I say? I love GUESS?."
