Kim at Betty's Girl is an alteration Genius! I chose Kim to help make our wedding an unforgettably beautiful day, and thats exactly what was accomplished! Kim really knows her stuff, and is extremely thorough. She was a joy to work with through the entire planning process. And was more than happy to work with my budget which was so very helpful. She was always very attentive to all of my needs, and exceeded my expectations. We couldn't have been happier with the way our special day turned out. I would hire her again in a heartbeat!

I was nervous about finding someone in time to do the alterations because my wedding dress was late being delivered. Kim kindly fit me into her schedule last minute. She is very experienced and talented. I will reach out to her again in a heart beat. I was able to pick it up several days before my wedding day and it fit perfectly. Kim quelled my nerves and eased my doubts about the dress. Support a local business. Betty's Girl Napa is also a great shop to check out with interesting items for sale. I will be back even if it is just to pop my head in to say 'hi!'. She's that cool!

Very nice little boutique store in Downtown Napa. We were just a day or two away from our daughters big day at the Meritage Resort and Mrs G still had a couple of last minute things she needed taking care of. The most pressing was the right piece to hold her hair in the style she wanted as Mother of the Bride. The owner of the store was amazingly helpful - and while she didn't really have the things that Mrs G needed she insisted on helping us out and solving the problem. Excellent service from a lovely lady!
Two thumbs up

My review is long overdue as I recently got married in October. When it comes to getting your wedding dress tailored, Kim is the person you want to work with. She went above and beyond for my wedding dress and was able to get it customized according to my size. I was one of those brides that postponed due to the pandemic, and after dropping 4 dress sizes, Kim made me look even more amazing. I couldn't have imagined my dress turning out any better. Thanks Kim!

Original designs, using vintage fabric. This creative designer is an upcycle wizard and her stock is reasonably priced. Enthusiastic customer service

Betty's is a standby. Her charming vintage store, that originally opened on First Street in autumn 2003, has managed to withstand to weather all sorts of crises while maintaining a storefront in downtown Napa. In the mid-2010s, Betty's went into the bespoke fashion business. In the late 2010s, they relocated to Second Street, near the former post office. Not only have they sold stylish vintage clothing, but they do recycled and up cycled fashion.
The owner, Kim, is very helpful and is mindful of her customers' tastes. Fashions range from $30 up, plus there are accessories. Betty's has changed with the times, the secret of its long-running success.
Betty's is one of Napa's best boutiques.Helpful 7Thanks 0Love this 6Oh no 0 - Caitlin B.Greenbrae, CA2223May 13, 2021
Wow!!! Kim is a true creative she was able to take my wedding dress that was way too large and make it look so sexy and timeless! She has a background in Chemistry and engineering so she sees shapes and construction of a dress in such a unique and beautiful way.

Bridesmaid dress alterations-
Kim was wonderful and so quick! I tried on the dress in her shop, she marked the dress with a couple pins, and I was out in under 10 minutes. She was flexible regarding drop off and pickup times, hemmed my bridesmaid dress perfectly, and has a reasonable fee. I will definitely be back!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Katey W.Boston, MA0121Jul 10, 2022
Kim turned my mom's vintage wedding dress into my modern wedding dress. She worked beautiful magic and helped me design the dress of my princess dreams! She worked with me to customize my design and make it perfect!

100000% recommend Kim! I brought my dress to be tailored as it fit me too long and she did an amazing job with a quick turnaround. And she also suggested I fix the shoulders because they were too big and she was totally right, and adjusted them too! Also, the shop is small and cute! Will definitely be coming back!!
