Formally known as Adelaar Brothers Inc., they produced primarily women’s tailored blouses, but also created separates, and occasionally dresses and lightweight suits. The blouses were designed by Maurice but tailored by different jobbers using the patterns, materials and notions supplied by Adelaar. The company was at its height of production from the late 1940s to the late 1960s, when women’s tailored blouses were popular. Foreign competition, rising U.S. labor costs, and changing tastes in fashion in the 1970s led to the company’s slow demise. The company closed in 1986. https://vintagefashionguild.org/resources/item/label/adelaar/
