- About The Designer -
​
Born in Ireland, designer Debbie Bailie found her love of bridal dresses at the tender age of 6, when she and her cousin would dream of their wedding days and sketch their perfect gowns!
After spending her twenties working in the high end fashion industry with designers such as Alaia, Prada and Joseph, Debbie made the natural transition into bridal after the opportunity of being closely involved in a friends wedding.
Designing and creating the first piece was like second nature to her and with recommendations from brides, things naturally progressed into a succesful small business. Debbie found that there was a demand for beautifully crafted bespoke pieces and coupled with her love of timeless bridal styling and in 2011 she began her journey as Gibson Bespoke. Her sole desire was to create beautiful luxurious pieces with impeccable quality and a bespoke service for the contemporary bride.
With a passion for intricate crystal embroidery Debbie has received worldwide recognition as a designer for the brands unmistakable style, being named among Harper's Bazaar's 'Top 10 Bespoke Bridal Designers' and Elle magazines 'Top 5 British Bridal Designers'.
