History
Betty's Girl Boutique opened in 2003 by Kim Northrop as a tribute to her mom, Betty. Together, they loved to collect and rework vintage clothing, and the business is a way of sharing those talents. In July 2014, we launched Betty's Girl Couture -- our custom design studio. We create one-of-a-kind dresses for weddings and special occasions as well as redesign and alter gowns and formal wear. In 2018, we relocated to a new storefront within Nostalgia of Napa located at 1320 Second Street in Downtown Napa. We've recently expanded our services to include re-imaging & redesigning some of your rediscovered treasures - favorite jeans, cozy sweater, a long forgotten outfit from the back of the closet. Betty's Girl Couture is open by appointment only Thursday, Fridays & Saturdays. Betty's Girl Napa classic vintage and casual designs continue to be a key part of the business too. These looks are featured throughout Nostalgia of Napa. It is open Thursday, Friday Saturday & Sunday.
