Hi, I’m Morgane
I'm a brand and visual designer with 4+ years of in-house and agency experience, currently leading brand design for the Brand Partnerships division at GUESS in Los Angeles. I specialize in building cohesive, strategic visual systems that span digital, physical, and experiential touchpoints — from campaign identity to spatial design and executive presentations. At GUESS, I’ve worked across sub-brands like GUESS JEANS, GUESS Originals, GUESS U.S.A. and HARDSTONE, collaborating closely with leadership to evolve the brand's cultural relevance.
My background includes internships at Sonos, Mattel, and the design agency Noise 13, where I contributed to high-impact B2B and consumer experiences including event branding, way-finding, and content systems. I thrive in fast-moving environments where creative direction, hands-on execution, and cross-functional collaboration are key. I'm excited by mission-driven companies where design plays a central role in storytelling, innovation, and business strategy.
Much of my work at GUESS is confidential, but I’m happy to share more —
feel free to reach out.

Lead Graphic Designer — January ‘22 - Present
Jr Graphic Designer — January ‘20 - ‘22I work for a department within GUESS known as Brand Partnerships. We’re a small team composed of a handful of product designers, coordinators, and our mini marketing team of 3. We report to Nicolai Marciano, the son of the founder of mainline GUESS. We operate like a design agency, and work on the following sub brands of GUESS: GUESS JEANS (launching June ‘24), GUESS Originals, and GUESS U.S.A. All of which were conceived by Nicolai, and executed + brought to life by us.
We’re an unconventional, scrappy little team that believes in progress over process, but we’re not to be underestimated. We work hard (like, really really hard), and we have a lot of fun. Things rarely go as planned but the outcome never suffers.
My role varies day to day, week to week, month to month depending on the needs of the brands. Long story short, my current role touches on all aspects of design. From the creative direction stage to the build out & execution stages. Some examples:UI/UX
Brand Bibles

Marketing (OOH, Social, Email, etc)
