Hi,

The big news is that we have moved from our Church Street Shop to a new Garden Studio. In many ways it was a sad day when we finally moved from our shop premises. We had maintained a presence on Church Street for rather more years than I care to recall, I’m sure you will understand.

Some of you may remember our twin shops with Felicity on one side and our old Magpie shop on the other. We consolidated into “The Olde House” a few doors along and expanded to also include our Evening Dress range with L’Etoile Evening Wear.

But despite our enthusiasm for our expanded range of services, we actually found that the real change was in a growing demand for “Designer Hats to Buy” as well as to hire. Furthermore, we had increasing demand for “Designer Fascinators” and an emerging demand for ”Hats Made to Order” and “Bridal Headpieces”. We thought long and hard about this changing demand and we decided to consolidate our efforts into the area that we knew best, Designer Hats and Fascinators.

We took the opportunity to make a dramatic change in our approach primarily concentrating on the Hats and Fascinators and also to also move lock, stock and barrel to a new garden studio from our Church Street Shop.

We hope you will call to make an appointment so you can enjoy the new studio and we certainly anticipate that we will be able to find the hat that’s just so and completes a perfect outfit.

Hope to see you soon.

Hi,

Just a quick note to let everyone know we have launched our new website for Surrey Hat Studios. We had thought about a complete revamp, but having asked as many of our customers as possible since October, we were surprised to find that almost everyone wanted us to keep the overall layout. It seems that many of you find the format quick and easy to use.

Website:   www.surreyhatstudio.co.uk

Email:       enquiries@surreyhatstudio.co.uk

 So please do make a note our new domain name and email address. We do try to keep an extensive portfolio of the hats currently available. But remember, we do have new styles and colours arriving all the time

We are delighted to announce the launch of the new Surrey Hat Studio. Our original business, Felicity Hat Hire of Godalming, was based on the hire of designer hats and fascinators, but over the last few years we have had a growing demand for hats to buy.

Our new business gives us greater flexibility to meet this growing demand and our strong ties with a select group of leading designers will mean that we can maintain our large selection of hats and fascinators. Indeed we have over 600 hundred designer hats and fascinators in stock right now, including exclusive designs and new season’s colours.

We have revamped our logo to celebrate the launch and we hope you like it as much as we do.

 And there is much more news to follow.

Hope to see you in our shop soon.

Tessa
