Max Louis Raab (June 9, 1926 Philadelphia – February 21, 2008 Philadelphia) was an American clothing businessman and film producer.
Raab was the originator of the popular Preppy look in American women's fashion during the 1950s. He was also responsible for bringing the film "A Clockwork Orange" to the screen.
In the late 1940s, Raab realized that women's fashions were changing. American women's fashion was being increasingly dominated by teenage girls and adults with upwardly mobile tastes. In contrast, Morgan Raab produced low quality, unstylish blouses. In response, Raab started manufacturing man-tailored button down shirts at Morgan Raab. The clothing line was a great success.
In 1958, Raab and his brother Norman started The Villager, a clothing line that would define preppy Ivy League fashion for decades. The popularity of his clothing led the New York Times to label him the "dean of the prep look. The Villager quickly grew to be one of the preeminent brands in American sportswear, only to diminish in popularity with the advent of the late 1960s counterculture and attendant styles in fashion. During this time, Raab also launched the Rooster Tie Company and became known for his unconventional use of unusual, non-traditional fabrics in ties.
In 1974, Raab founded the J.G. Hook clothing line. He had decided that it was ritme to revive the classic prep style of the 1950's. He also created a new necktie company, Tango, that again used unconventional materials for his ties.
In remarks about his two careers, Raab stated, "A film's director is a designer. Just as the film director works with a story; the designer, with a theme. The producer sits in on the editing and works with all of the elements of the finished project, as I do in both worlds."
In 1998, after growing J.G. Hook into a $100 million empire, Max sold the business.
