Guess

AdKaora, the digital company of Mondadori Digital, has been selected by Guess, one of the world’s most recognisable fashion brands, to manage its 2025 digital activities in Europe, with coordinated planning across Italy, Spain, Germany and Poland. The partnership was created to support two of the brand’s most important initiatives through a creative and technological ecosystem capable of maintaining a consistent narrative across multiple markets.

The campaigns, aimed primarily at a female audience attentive to style, personal care and fashion trends, with a strong interest in beauty, fashion and accessories, benefited from a multichannel approach combining high-impact formats, premium editorial distribution and advanced proximity marketing tools.

A central role was played by the proprietary creative formats developed by the AdKaora Creative Studio, designed to showcase products through an immediate, immersive language capable of capturing attention from the very first seconds. Thanks to their interactive nature, these solutions offered Guess a distinctive way to present both the spring lingerie collections and the iconic accessories launched in the second half of the year.

The strength of the collaboration lay in the ability to build a full-funnel journey, adapting messages and objectives to the different stages of the decision-making process. The upper funnel was supported by high-impact rich media and premium placements, while the consideration phase relied on more interactive experiences. Conversion, in turn, was driven by proximity marketing and drive-to-store solutions, integrated with a certified footfall analysis, enabling the real impact of digital activities on Guess boutiques across the various markets to be measured.

The overall analysis highlights how the synergy between strategy and creativity delivered strong performance, significantly exceeding market benchmarks in all countries involved, thanks to targeted planning on the AdKaora Value Network, an international editorial ecosystem that includes premium sites across the fashion and lifestyle sectors. This network enabled Guess to reach relevant audiences in each market while maintaining high quality standards. “Working with a partner like AdKaora allowed us to achieve very solid results, both in qualitative terms, thanks to consistently high-quality content, and in performance across the entire funnel. At the same time, being present within a premium editorial environment gave us the reassurance of planning aligned with the brand’s values, even across multiple markets,” said Ester Diamante, Media Planning Manager at Guess.

“The collaboration with Guess is a concrete example of how proprietary creativity, multichannel planning and measurable drive-to-store activation can coexist within a single international strategy,” commented Davide Tran, MarTech Hub Director Mondadori Digital and CEO of AdKaora. “Our Value Network, made up of premium vertical publishers across the main European markets, is a strategic asset that enables us to guarantee quality, consistency, brand safety and real results wherever the brand chooses to communicate. With proximity and drive-to-store strategies, we also ensured that Guess could bring genuinely interested customers into its stores, maximising visit rate performance throughout the campaign,” Tran concluded.
