Born in Dallas Texas, Darius moved to Norman Oklahoma in 1987 to attend the University of Oklahoma. It was during this time in college that Darius confirmed it was the world of couture was one of his passions and that he wanted to become a fashion designer specializing in unique evening gowns, special occasion dresses, and informal bridal wedding dresses. After some moderate local success in Oklahoma the company Darius Cordell Designs decided they were ready to take their evening wear designs to the national level. It was then, that the marriage of determination, compassion, design, & fashion sense were perfectly melded into Darius producing his own designer collection of high end formal evening wear gowns. He introduced his first collection at the Atlanta Apparel Market in October of 1996. This was the beginning of the label "Darius Cordell Couture" taking its rightful place as a contender in the pageant gown arena.

sanctity of marriage???

Ronald Reagan - divorced the mother of two of his children to marry Nancy Reagan, who bore him a daughter only 7 months after the marriage.

Bob Dole - divorced the mother of his child, who had nursed him through the long recovery from his war wounds.

Newt Gingrich - divorced his wife who was dying of cancer.

Dick Armey - House Majority Leader - divorced

Sen. Phil Gramm of Texas - divorced

Gov. John Engler of Michigan - divorced

Gov. Pete Wilson of California - divorced

George Will - divorced

Sen. Lauch Faircloth - divorced

Rush Limbaugh - Rush and his current wife Marta have six marriages and four divorces between them.

Rep. Bob Barr of Georgia - Barr, not yet 50 years old, has been married three times. Barr had the audacity to author and push the "Defense of Marriage Act." The current joke making the rounds on Capitol Hill is "Bob Barr...WHICH marriage are you defending?!?

Sen. Alfonse D'Amato of New York - divorced

Sen. John Warner of Virginia - divorced (once married to Liz Taylor.)

Gov. George Allen of Virginia - divorced

Henry Kissinger - divorced

Rep. Helen Chenoweth of Idaho - divorced

Sen. John McCain of Arizonia - divorced

Rep. John Kasich of Ohio - divorced

Rep. Susan Molinari of New York - Republican National Convention Keynote Speaker - divorced

So ... homosexuals are going to destroy the institution of marriage? Wait a minute, it seems the Christian Heterosexual Republicans are doing a fine job without anyone's help!

If you agree, like I do, that hypocricy and bigotry must end, repost this. Perhaps this will open some eyes!

We truly appreciate your interest in Darius Cordell Designs Inc and we thank you for visiting our website and considering our garments for your very special occasion.

Because the internet has become what it is, we felt it necessary to take a moment to give our potential clients some necessary information to use when considering our design company to make your very special garment.

We began marketing our designs in 1996 and thanks to the internet our website was born in early 1999. Since then we have had great success using the internet as our catalog. We sell hundreds of dresses per year (via mail order & by appointment) to clients from all over the globe - many of them being repeat clients.

I am very proud of the quality of our product and our exceptional record. But we are human and this is a man made product so mistakes can happen. Out of 10 years of business I can count on one hand those extremely few mistakes. Regardless, the Darius Cordell Designs policy is if we make a mistake...we will fix it. Depending on the circumstances even if our clients make a mistake we will even accept the return (with a restocking fee) and remake it for them. So we can be extremely flexible in many situations.

Sometimes clients will wait to the last minute to place their order and then expect the unreasonable even though we disclose on our site that normal production time can take approximately 12 weeks. It is understood that all Darius Cordell inc garments are hand made to order items that can take approximately 12 weeks to produce. But an exact completion and/or delivery time can not and is not given. We make sure to have all clients print, read, fill out and sign our order form contract prior ro us starting production on an order request. All of this is disclosed up front to them on our site and on that contract that they sign yet some clients feel as though they are not being treated properly (or have been ripped off) when we remind them of this disclosure and or when their item arrives in the normal time that was disclosed. This is unfortunate but we have concluded it is part of doing business via an online catalog so we just try to make sure clients understand fully prior to starting their order. Most of the time it works but sometimes...not so much.

The only other issues we have ever had that we could not fix are from a few potential clients who may have mistakenly overlooked some important words on our site which resulted in them not having the important info they needed. And unfortunately once made aware of their innocent oversight they become frustrated (feeling as though they did something wrong) and then they sometimes may have misdirected that personal frustration.

Nevertheless, it is my hope that our true Darius Cordell Couture clients will see that potential consumers becoming frustrated due to their very simple and innocent oversights or with us trying to help them through this process by asking them to carefully review the information we provide to them (and them feeling as though they have done something wrong when they don't see something at first glance) does not constitute bad service, a rip off or a legitimate complaint regarding how we assist them.

I sincerely hope that any wise consumer will be more concerned with what our repeat clients have said in their emails to us about our actual service, website & product. That is why I have posted some of those lovely responses on our site for all potential clients to review prior to making a purchase. Click here to see "customer comments"

Since 1996 we the team at Darius Cordell have sold hundreds of dresses (via mail order with our on line catalog) to many new & repeat clients. Below are just a few of the lovely comments we have received from clients who actually read our Q & A page as instructed and were ultimately able to understand and order through our very easy mail order process.

Dear Hunter,

I just received my dress in the mail yesterday -- I LOVE IT! It's just everything I thought I would want and more. The cut is so ridiculously close; I only have a few minor alterations to have done. Thank you so much for your help with this. I am certainly happy I went with your company!

I do plan to get the word out about this among my group of opera friends. I hope you get responses!

Thank you and all of the team at Darius Cordell for bringing such a fabulous dress to life,

J.Barton - Bloomington , NJ

Although I got concerned about receiving my dress for the wear date I did get it the day before (almost too close for comfort). However, I must say the dress is absoulutely gorgeous. My mother was a professional designer and seamstress for years so believe me when I say the dress and workmanship was without flaw. My daughter designed the dress for me and she was thrilled when we opened the package and her original sketch was taped to the outside. You made her vision a lovely reality. I tried on the dress and all my husband could say was "WOW" and after 28 years of marriage that is a great compliment. But the best compliment came from my daughter. She said "Mom, when I get married that is the dress I want you to wear." It just can't get any better than that.

Thanks so very much, D. Bell - Blyththeville, Ar

It is magnificent!! And a perfect fit! I'm totally in love with it! Even my Brazilian fancy shoes are a perfect match for my beautiful dress! I just had to send you the pictures that my husband took of me, yesterday.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!
