Guess models, past and present
Francesca Valenti (DOB: 2nd of February, 1999 in Legnano, Italy) She started modelling for Guess in 2020, and is still with Guess. She has been in several Guess campaigns (including GUESS Spring 2021, GUESS Spring 2022, GUESS Spring 2023 Campaign,GUESS Accessories Fall 2023 Campaign, GUESS Accessories Fall 2024), frequently with Liza Makhu. Her first campaign, Guess Spring 2021 (I think), with Liza. I attempted repair on these older images. [I intentionally grouped 3 controversial or problematic individuals together; with Francesca we return from metal & glam rock, to stately baroque music. 'These new Guess models are just insipid clothes hangers', some people tell me. I disagree; I consider them the equal of their predecessors]

Sydney Sweeney (DOB September 12, 1997, in Spokane, Washington) Guess Originals x Anna Nicole Smith Collection in 2021, photographed by Kenneth Cappello in Malibu (3HQs) “Ever since a young age, I’ve always had a bigger chest, and I never felt like in any stores I saw a body shape that represented me. And I remember the first time I saw the giant Guess models [ads] in the storefronts, and I was like, ‘Mom, I want to go in the store.’ And she took me in, and I saw all the girls around that had curves and that had boobs, and they were celebrated, and they were loved, and they were beautiful, and I was like, ‘Oh, my God, I hope I grow up and I’m a Guess model.”

Francesca Valenti
For some reason I overlooked these interviews (YT embeds). In the one below, from 2024, she mentions (in English) that did a test shoot for Guess in Lugano in June 2020 (their European HQ, no wonder that town keeps getting mentioned). Guess was her first commercial modeling work. A longish interview, with Paul Marciano, from early 2021. She mentions studying economics, and that her father and brother were physicians but she didn't have the appropriate temperament for such a career (cue mention of Liza Makhu's family; Francesca and Liza were in a lot of the same campaigns). Paul and Francesca are both very fluent in English.

A YT embed of the making of the Guess Spring 2023 campaign, with Francesca, Liza Makhu, Xavier (French), Paul Marciano, Juliet Tuzet, and the Vika & Saida team. There is a lot of code switching between 4 languages (what happened to Esperonto the universal language?). I'm posting this in Francesca's thread because she speaks first (in Italian, later in English). 1 minute long final campaign advertisement

Dariia Zotova
YT embeds of Dariia and Iryna Dzhagarova for the Marciano Holiday '23 Campaign. In the first one Diana (she doesn't use Dariia) mentions having a test shoot in mid 2023 - Guess liked her enough to give her a job. Her English is very good, though I'm not quite sure what she means by 'line opening'. Iryna says she was much more interested in sports than modelling as a teen. The final 60 second campaign ad:

Seyla Brigitte Zanon
I commenced a Guess models megathread, and uploaded social media images of her first campaign shoot for Guess Jeans 👖 in SS23 (she joined the 'GuessFamily' in 2022). Some people won't approve of me 👹 placing her near the start, the 5th (I'm trying to yo-yo 🪀 between former and current/more recent Guess models).
