Our Story

MAY 12, 1965.

A distant, yet undoubtedly important date in the making of Portugal’s tailoring heritage. In the unassuming land of Alcains, Castelo Branco, four men came together to found what would, in years to come, turn into one of the most prestigious high-end male fashion brands. Their names’ initials – Dias, Hélder, Mateus, and Ramiro – we’re folded into a single designation, Dielmar, a name that soon became synonymous with quality, excellence, and elegance in the sartorial sector for the better part of 5 consecutive decades.

Before long, Dielmar would heighten the stakes, evolving from a modestly-sized business to distinguished name in the mid-to-high range of textile excellence. In their native country alone, acclamation was fast-approaching, as more and more milestones were achieved. As physical stores launched across Portugal’s largest cities, the prospection of a larger market became evident. France, England, and Spain emerged as some of the main fronts where Dielmar would seek to grow their presence.

50 years later

DIELMAR STILL WORE ITS FOUNDATIONAL PRINCIPLES ON ITS SLEEVE: KEEPING A SHARP EYE ON THE INDUSTRY’S DYNAMICS, CURRENT QUALITY STANDARDS, AND THE ERGONOMICS OF THE FUTURE. A SIMPLE CREATIVE PHILOSOPHY, GUIDED BY THE AMBITION OF ACHIEVING TIMELESSNESS, AND OF CREATING IN A FORMAT IMPERVIOUS TO TRENDS, AND TIME ITSELF.
