Guess Chairman Paul Marciano resigns after probe into improper conduct

Guess Inc said on Tuesday its co-founder, Paul Marciano, had resigned as the company`s executive chairman after a special committee completed an investigation into allegations of improper conduct.

Earlier in February, model and actress Kate Upton tweeted, accusing Marciano of using his power to harass women.

The fashion retailer said on Tuesday many of the allegations, which included inappropriate comments and texts and unwanted advances, could not be corroborated.
