We sincerely appreciate you considering Darius Cordell Fashion Ltd as the company to produce your special garment.  As a true fashion design house we can produce any type of custom wedding dresses, evening gowns, or one of a kind formal wear costumes.  

You can "customize" or "make changes" to any one of our current styles.  Or you can commission us to produce a sketch of the design you are envisioning that is based on your personal preferences and requirements so you can then approve the design.   Or if your dream dress is out of your price range we can help!  There are many ways to get a couture dress to cost much less and still look the same.  Simply email us a picture of the gown.  We will then give you our lowest possible estimate to replicate the design.  

LONG DISTANCE ORDERS ARE NOT A PROBLEM.  EMAILS US FOR MORE INFO ON HOW IT WORKS.

On many occasions potential clients have contacted us asking if we could produce discontinued Pnina Tornai wedding dresses.  Or if we were able to produce one of those types of heavily beaded bridal gowns at a more affordabable cost.  And the answer is YES.  Some of the more popular high end fashion designers that people ask us to recreate thier bridal dresses are Amsale Aberra, Reem Acra, Monique Lhuillier and several other top designers like Vera Wang or Claire Pettibone.  We also get asked how we are able to produce the item to look exactly like the pictures.  Well, there are many factors that come into play as to why a garment that retails for $15,000 can somehow be made new for half or in some cases are discounted a third of that retail cost. Some of the things that help lower the cost of a high end wedding gown are where is it made, what fabrics are being used, what embellishment is being used, the types of laces and other specifics like that.  Simply by modifying a few factors you can duplicate Pnina Tornai bridal gowns for a much lower price with ease.  For example simply by changing a garment from silk to polyester you can reduce the prices instanly by 40% to 70%.  Or instead of using ALL swarovski crystals for the beading we can instead use some of those types of rhinestones but then mix in a lower price point of embellishment that looks the same but that is not nearly as expensive like glass lochrosen crystals.  Or depending on the brides budget we may even need to substitue with plastic jewels that look similar but retail for a lot less.  We do our best to try and work within the price range that we are given.

So if you have tried on designer wedding dresses or any other types of evening wear special occasion dresses and fell in love with them but the overall cost was double or far more than what you wanted to spend simply obtain a photograph of the couture wedding gown and email it to us to see how much it would cost for us to make that same dress for you.  Since your order would be a mail order purchase there would not be the built in overhead cost that a local bridal shop may have.  That is why we guarantee our prices will be less and the quality will be the same if not better.  Or if you have been endless searching the internet, pictures in magazines and shopping local bridal salons for destination couture wedding dresses, prom gowns and other social evening wear attire and not had any luck finding exactly what you want your search is over.  It does not matter what you are wanting or searching for.  We can make it the way you want to your satisfaction.  So no matter what your needs are we can make it happen for you.  Any of our women's clothing can be made in petite frames or plus size figures.  A long formal gown for mother of the bride can be made as a cocktail dresses or tea length after five garment.  A long sleeve wedding dress can be made as a strapless bridal gown, and so on.

We dont just ask you to pick a size from a size chart.  All of our custom dresses are also made to measure for each individual client.  Using our personal measurement form any one of your local seamstresses, alterationist, cleaners, or tailors can obtain your measurements for you.   Your special occasion formal evening wear & designer bridal gowns will then be made according to the measurements you present.  To make a dress from our catalog in your measurements or a plus size is not a "custom" garment.  When the cut of a design is changed that turns it into a customized or custom piece.

The process to order from us out of Texas is actaully quite simple and to the point.  To order totally custom bridal gowns or couture evening dresses we must first receive all of the preferences, specifications, requirements, likes and dislikes, before an appointment or an estimate can be provided. You can use your photos or ours to help you describe what you want (i.e – I like bottom of style #xyz, top of style #123, beading on style #abc).  We also welcome a clients own sketch work or personal gown design.  Once all that information is complied we can then bring the concepts together in a sketch. Once a sketch is approved (and your order forms and deposit are received) we can place the order into production. Again, prior to us starting any sketch work we must first be commissioned with a non-refundable deposit in the amount no less than $250 which will of course be applied towards your overall invoice.

Designer dresses from our collection begin at $500.  Custom formal gowns & prom dresses usually start at bit higher.  A rule of thumb is to think of it in terms of beading.  The more hand work that is involved with beads, lace or otehr embelishments then the higher the cost.  More often than not it is more cost effective to simply make changes to one of our existing designs.  The final price of your made to measure garments will obviously vary according to the complexity of the design of that particular piece, density of beading or the embellishments, as well as the cost of the jewels that you want to be sewn on your particular item. Before we begin cutting we require a cutting fee good faith deposit to equal no less than 50% of the estimated base retail price.  The final balance is payable within 15 days after completion to avoid forfeiture of deposit.  Even though rush orders are available as Dallas Tx fashion designers we ask that you still please allow as much time as possible for custom or customized garments.
