ROBERT LEONARD COMPANY

The Robert Leonard Company was a Massachusetts based company run by brothers Robert and Richard Baron. Started about 1950, the company specialized in dresses, coats, and suits in a more conservative style.

The company’s business quadrupled in the late 1960s when many women weren’t comfortable wearing the new youthful mini skirted styles. Diana Adler was the designer in the late 1960s. The Robert Leonard line was carried by high end stores such as Lord & Taylor and Bonwit Teller.
