Latest news from the studio

Restore.....New to the upper floor of the studio

7/27/2020

For those of you who have visited me at the studio before, you will already know that the upper floor is a hub for creativity!
With regular courses and workshops it has become a sanctuary for many.
I am so excited to share that during the strange times of recent months, the space has had a fabulous overhaul and the new Restore brand has been born.
Alongside the creative courses which will be restarting this Autumn, there is now a retail area full of treats and trinkets.
Candles, Aromatherapy, Crystals, Bath Products and Home Fragrance.
With an emphasis on feeling good and leaving with a smile...… cannot wait to see you all there soon!

Happy Times

Just over a week until the studio is permitted to open again!
Most 2020 brides have taken the decision to postpone until 2021, so lets hope that it is a year to remember and party like never before.
I do still have quite a few brides booked in and due to marry between Sept & December, but to be honest the guidelines are still vague.
Happier times are on the way x

Lockdown 2020

5/18/2020

It is now 8 weeks since the studio doors temporarily closed and lockdown life is certainly different for all of us.
Gone is the hustle and bustle of balancing family and the hectic studio diary. I miss not seeing the many excited brides coming and going and the joy of welcoming lots of new faces to one of the many workshops or classes to learn new skills and meet new people !
I really do yearn for the return of those times and like everyone else I often sit and think what our everyday life ahead and our new normal will be like?
2021 is looking extremely busy in terms of bridal fittings and it is certainly going to be a year of celebration for many families who have had to put all their plans on hold.

I try to fill my days with positive thoughts and I really do find that creativity is a huge help to my mental well being.
Here are a few pics from some of my lockdown projects.
I have as always been working with lots of lace and beautiful fabrics, but I have also enjoyed working with Willow and trying a few new things.

Studio Refurbishment

My lovely little studio has welcomed lots of clients over the past 6 years and I am often told how welcoming and homely it is.
It is now time for a refresh as some areas are looking a little tired and there are lots of exciting changes planned for the update.
The studio will close for 1 week in September and I will endeavour to cause minimal disruption .

Prom 2019

A crazy busy start to prom season at the studio.....
I often meet exhausted Mums who have been to many shops before they visit and the experiences they have had previously are not always great. The pre loved prom range offers a fantastic selection of carefully picked dresses at a fraction of the original price.
The dresses are fully cleaned,bagged in protective covers and just waiting for another outing!
A visit to the studio to view the dresses is relaxed and unpretentious.
Try as many dresses as you like and I am there to help if you need me, but I also understand when you need space. 
Limited appointment slots available.
Please send a message via the contact page or call Deborah 07984166230.

Selection Day
*****************
Pre Loved Prom 2019
**I can help sell your dresses**
Its that time again and I want all your beautifull dresses!
The Pre Loved Prom range was born 4 years ago and has grown in popularity each year.
Do you have a dress from last years Prom season that you would like to sell?
I am pleased to have now finalised the selection day where you can bring along your dress for it to be considered for the new collection.
I am looking for beautiful dresses in perfect, clean condition of all styles and sizes.

How it works.........
If your dress is suitable we will agree a selling price together. If I successfully find a buyer for your dress a commission of 30% is payable and the rest is yours.
You are free to take your dress if you find a private buyer (providing I have not agreed a sale)
The success of the collection is a combination of the girls still experiencing a shopping experience in comfortable surroundings and Mum saving a few pennies!
Your dresses will be showcased in my shop window on the busy A6 and also receive lots of advertising on social media.
*****************************
Prom Selection Day 2019
Saturday 2nd Feb
10.30-3.30
No Appointment Necessary
Deborah Bayan Design Studio
465 Buxton Road Stockport
SK27HE
(If you cannot make the day, pls msg to make arrangements)

: Pls note- Any dresses still not collected from last season can be added to the collection again if suitable.

New Year at the studio

Well what a whirlwind 2018 was!
I will strive to keep you more updated of life in the studio throughout the New Year as I often have so many fabulous photos and events to share but somehow they never quite reach the blog....
It seems that bridal season no longer exists and there are a steady stream of brides visiting me throughout the year for both alterations and for my bespoke design service.
Throughout 2018 I also introduced some new services including bridal dressing and styling. 

Bridal Dressing
Getting into your wedding dress can be a challenge, particularly if you have a large underskirt, a corset fastening or lots of fiddly buttons.
Once all your alterations are complete, you may feel more at ease to have some assistance on your big day to ensure every detail of your dress looks perfect. Stress levels on the day are often high and many brides during 2018 found the dressing service to be a perfect solution. 

Bridal Styling
Any bride who visits me for alterations benefits from advice with regards to styling and accessories .
A beautiful dress can be turned into something sensational with the right finishing touches and I am on hand to help with hairpieces, veils, wraps and shrugs.
​*******************************************
 *From 2019 the above services can be offered to any bride even if alterations have not been carried out in the studio.
