Get Ready For The GM-Georges Marciano Apparel Launch!

Disclosure: Style, Decor & More received compensation for this post and a pair of jeans for  review purposes only. All opinions are 100% my own. Please refer to our disclosure policy for further details. 


Hey everyone! I've been dying to share some exciting news with you! Guess founder and denim legend Georges Marciano, recently launched GM–Georges Marciano, a new line of apparel and denim, and I was lucky enough to get my hands on a pair of these awesome jeans! Yes! They are everything I had hoped they would be! 

As you know, Georges Marciano blew us away with Guess jeans, and I can see the new collection of handmade jeans will be no different. The label consists of shirtings, vests, T-shirts, skirts and dresses, and three denim categories: vintage, classic and colored. The denim has an American feel inspired by the early ’80s, yet is contemporary enough to appeal to everyone! You'll see what I mean below.

I've been wearing my Marciano jeans out and about for the last week or so, and they get a high score for holding flawless shape after a long day of touring two college campuses with my daughter, and spending roughly three hours on the road. They have a nice, tight fit around the hips and behind, and these skinnies fit like a glove, hugging the length of my legs snuggly, yet comfortably. The feel of the fabric is crisp and the medium-dark wash is clean and refined. Attention to details on the pockets, hem and side seams, are apparent with the thick and durable thread stitching. 

Here’s your first sneak peek at Georges Marciano jeansDrumroll, please....




Below is a sampling of the denim and apparel from the GM-Georges Marciano lookbook. I'm loving the vintage look of this new line. How about you?

Maxi skirts flatter every figure and hide a multitude of sins - comfy too!  Pair an embroidered peasant top with a beautifully carved turquoise necklace, or call it a day in an easy-to-wear maxi and tee with seed beads and a silver wide braid ring for an effortless look full of worldly vibes.
