Welcome to Barbara's of Standish

Supplying beautiful outfits for over 30 years

Barbara's of Standish was established in 1976 and back then was just a one roomed shop with a small fitting room. Over the years Barbara expanded the business and it now has a large retail shopping area covering approximately 70 square metres and a welcoming, warm fitting room, where you can try the clothes at your leisure.

In February 2003, when Barbara decided it was time to retire and depart to the sunny shores of Spain, the business was taken over by her daughter Denise Coyle and the labels have since been expanded further. Barbara's supply beautiful outfits for the Mother of the Bride and Groom and for guests at weddings but also has a large range of original casual wear.

The shop has a light airy feel and is well designed for browsing. Denise and her staff will offer all the help and advice you require but pride themselves on achieving a balanced atmosphere where you are always allowed to browse at your leisure if you prefer.

There is also a resident tailloress, Sue Holt, who is available for any alterations required and also if you have private alterations these can also be attended to.

It is certainly worth a trip, whether you are looking for something for that special occasion or suddenly decide 'It's Friday and I need a new top'. We will always be happy to help.
