Some info on the label:Lee Claire was a dress company that specialized in better cocktail, dinner, and evening dresses. It was started, probably in the late 1920s, by Irving Glaser. In the 1960s, the “Tux-Mate” label was started by Lee Claire. It was geared toward a younger customer and was cut in junior sizing.
