Our story

Fashion began with a love of art.

Darius Cordell was born and raised in Dallas. While studying at the University of Oklahoma, he discovered a pull toward fashion and art, then began creating custom evening gowns and special-occasion attire for pageant systems in 1994.

The business returned to Texas in 1998 and expanded from wholesale work with bridal salons and boutiques to a broader collection of custom bridal, evening, pageant, and mother-of-the-wedding looks.

The point of view

A design should meet you where you are.

From made-to-measure possibilities to changes in sleeve, neckline, color, and silhouette, the focus is a gown that serves the person wearing it.
