Does anyone have any information about Jean Durain of Hollywood, California? I can't seem to find any information about that designer. I can post pictures of the dress if anyone would like. Thanks!

Not much info with a quick google, except one of his 50s girls dresses was (or is) featured in a museum: www.powerhousemuseum.com

Yes, please do post pictures!
