Evelyn & Arthur Offers Florida Designed Clothing On Main Street

Evelyn & Arthur held its grand opening Friday at 1480 Main St., with its owners Adrianne and Fred Weissman.
Evelyn & Arthur started on Palm Beach in 1984 when Evelyn and Arthur Lewis retired and Evelyn wanted to open up a clothing shop when her New York wardrobe didn't mesh in the Sunshine State and she couldn't find the right cut for her.
