I am retired Designer of 50s though the 90s . I now live in Arkansas. I have just discovered your site and felt it would be interesting to see some of my old garments being brought back. It is a strange but wonderful feeling, to see things that I made so long ago, looking just as they looked then. Thank you for this site.

Good morning, Mr. Du Puis, and a very warm welcome to you! I've never been fortunate enough to acquire one of your exquisite designs ~ one can always hope, though! I love your sketching style, too!

Hello, Mr. Du Puis!
Welcome indeed, I think it's terrific that you stopped by here.

Wow, I have sold some Miss Elliette dresses over the years, and I have a feeling you may have designed some of them.

If I post some photos, would you like to say if they were your designs?

For example, this one:

Hello and welcome Mr. Du Puis

I have had the pleasure of finding several of your wonderful dresses over the years. It's wonderful to know that after all these years you are still creating magic. The Christening dress you made was divine.
