A Chat With Beth Guastella, giggle’s New President and COO, Part 1

I had the opportunity to chat recently with Beth Guastella, the recently named president and chief operating officer of giggle, an omnichannel specialty retailer of upscale baby products and resources.

Guastella has more than 20 years of leadership experience in retail, merchandising, operations, and P&L management, and has worked for brands such as Calypso St. Barth, Stuart Weitzman, kate spade new york, Montblanc and Hermes. She comes to giggle from Cole Haan, where she was vice president, direct to consumer. In her new role, Guastella is responsible for giggle's day-to-day operations and oversees the brand's retail stores, direct channels, merchandising and finance.
