DariusCordell LM

Born and raised in Dallas Texas, Darius moved to Norman Oklahoma in 1987 after graduation from Lake Highlands High School to attend the University of Oklahoma. It was during this time in college that Darius confirmed it was the world of fashion that was his passion and that he wanted to become a Dallas bridal gown designer of wedding dresses, special occasion evening gowns, and Dallas Dress designer of formal dresses.

After some moderate local success in Oklahoma, Darius as a new designer decided that he was ready to take his evening gown dress 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" taking its rightful place as a contender in the pageant gowns and designer evening dresses arena. Just over a year later, Darius as a new designer introduced his first collection of informal wedding gowns that has since evolved into a successful line on its own.

The design firm company, Darius Cordell Couture exhibited designs exclusively only to bridal shops salons boutiques and retail stores for years from a private showroom within the Dallas International Apparel Market as well as other regional wholesale markets in Chicago, Las Vegas and New York. In 1998 the company relocated back to Darius' native home of Dallas Texas where he has experimented with selling his designs to individuals across the world via the internet as well as to select retail clients in the Dallas Metroplex area via his private studio. Darius Cordell Designs still offers their designer evening wear and custom bridal gown designs wholesale to retailers for resale via regional markets for even further exposure nationwide. However the direct consumer response locally to our evening dresses and bridal gowns via mail order through the internet, retail, has been great. That is why the company has moved their offices to an upscale retail studio showcasing our Dallas bridal gown designers dresses. We are now open to the public from this new location in Hackberry crossing office park that is located just minutes from the Stonebriar mall in Frisco which is just 25 miles north of Dallas.

Darius' gown line, with office's in Frisco - near in Dallas Texas, has developed into a sleek and elegant collection of fine custom bridal gowns and social occasion evening wear. With no formal training and his God given talents, Darius' self titled label "Darius Cordell" is well on its way to becoming a house hold name not just in Dallas Texas but internationally in the fashion world of informal bridal gowns & designer evening wear dresses.
