| - Kitten Retro Glamour is the best shopping experience you'll have in the valley. Pimms and her staff are wonderful and make shopping fun. Everyone is always smiling and eager to make their customers happy without the pressure of making a sale. Going here is like playing dress up- see a unique design? Try it on. See something that looks odd and that you know you won't purchase, but you're curious to see how it looks anyway? Try it on, you may be surprised.
The clothing is adorable and there's always something new to be found. I love that the store includes jewelry and accessories from local artists. Be sure to check out the handmade dessert necklaces!
The first time I checked out Kitten, I was at the Melrose location. While I was shopping, a trans woman walked in the store and Pimms greeted her with the same enthusiasm as all of her other customers. The woman tried on a few outfits and Pimms clapped her hands with excitement and made her feel welcome. Kitten does not discriminate and embraces everyone. I already loved the clothes and the shopping experience, but seeing Pimms interact with the trans community made me a fan for life.
Yes, the clothes can be pricey, but bear in mind that this is a boutique that carries clothes from all over the world. The prices are comparable to a site like Modcloth, Sourpuss, Pin Up Girl Clothing, etc., but you are able to try on the clothes in the store and don't have to deal with pesky shipping fees.
Better yet, Kitten carries a variety of sizes, from XS to 3X! Vintage sizing can be a pain, but the staff is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. If your size is not available or out of stock, the staff goes the extra mile to special order what you need
It's impossible to walk out of Kitten without an air of confidence and without catching Pimms' contagious smile. Kitten Retro Glamour is an absolute must for fans of all things vintage, pretty, and kitsch!
