Kim altered my wedding dress and it came out perfect. AND she fixed the bad job that House of Fashion did on two of my bridesmaid dresses. Thanks Kim! You're Awesome!
Kim's skill level and knowledge of current style trends are unique, particularly in the Sacramento area. The quality of her work is impeccable and she is so good that she teaches at CSUS.

Kim skill in restoration of my Mother's 73 year old wedding gave me confidence that she could do anything! She has altered several pairs of pants to fit my tall thin frame and they look better than any pants I've ever owned. And she is a lovely, personable lady. No doubt she is number 1!
Besides designing and making a beautiful wedding dress for me, over the years, Kim has hemmed, patched and altered just about every category of clothing for me. She does it all, does it well and on time.
Kim has been wonderful! She has been working with my sister for years and is altering my wedding dress. Love her work and her attention to detail. I would definitely recommend Kim!
Kim works creative magic with design, texture & color...the customer service and quality of work is exceptional!
Not only can Kim hem your pants perfectly, but she can also design a beautiful wedding dress to fit perfectly & compliment your style. Whatever she's doing, she gives it all of her attention!
The company is very professional and willing to go the extra mile for any of their customers
Kim is awesome!! She altered my wedding dress perfectly and it didn't cost me an arm and a leg. I would definitely use and recommend her services.
No one does a better job! I've been a delighted customer for more than 15 years.
Her repairs are amazing! She's responsible for saving a blouse I had almost written off. Also, her turnaround time is quicker than others I've tried.
Oh my gosh! Kim is the best. Made things for me and fixed things that never fit right that I had spent beaucoup $$ on. The absolute best. :-))
Kim does such beautiful work. It's hard for me for me to find suits that fit since I am so small. When I do find work clothes that I like, I take them to Kim to have them altered. When I get them back, I feel like the suits were made just for me. Thanks Kim.
My wife always looks great because of the exceptional tailoring at Couture Designs!
I've trusted Kim with my clothes - everything from jeans to designers such as Chanel, Galanos, Ungaro - for almost 20 years. She is simply the best!
I've brought my clothes (everything from jeans to designers such as Chanel, Galanos, Ungaro) to Kim for close to 20 years. She's also made custom designs for me - She's the best!!
Couture does GREAT work - you name it, she does it...alterations, restorations, original designs, weddings...she is amazing! I have been going to Couture for about 20 years now and will be going 20 years from now! It is simply the best in town. (And I'm very picky so that's quite the praise.) Once in a very great while due to time constraints, I have gone to another tailor and lived to regret it.
Kim is truly the best. I have been with Kim for the last 4-5 years, I truly can tell you this lady is TOP NOTCH. I have sent her many many people all to come back and say how wonderful she is. Kim works with some pretty well known people in town and is constantly being left with HIGH END DESIGNER garments. This woman knows the fashion alphabet - A for Armani to Z for Zandra Rhodes. She is way much more than you will ever expect. I have tried to "keep her a secret" - guess not anymore. Oh yeah - she also has a great dog. xo - H.
If you want it done precisely, professionally, and on time, Couture Designs is the ONLY way to go. I truly wouldn't trust my tailoring or custom clothing to anyone else. Kim has done several pieces for me and I have seen other pieces she's made from scratch for others, simply amazing work.
Kim Caldwell is extraordinary with her designs for evening gowns. She has made my gown for the past 9 years for the Crocker Ball. Kim always makes me feel beautiful and elegant and I could never think of wearing a design by anyone else!
I trust Kim with my most important clothing. She even designed and created my wedding dress. I have known her for many years and have come to develop a friendship with her. She is one of the most reliable and dependable people you will meet, and she is great to do business with!
Wonderful and creative artisans. Kim has a talent of what is right and what will work for you -- and is honest about it! Beautiful workmanship.
Kim is very skilled, very detail oriented and very professional. Couture Designs has the best customer service - always a wonderful experience.
I have had the opportunity to work with Kim on a number of occasions. I have always found Kim to be very professional and extremely helpful . Kim always greets you with a smile and makes you feel like you are very special. She has a darn cute dog too!
I have known Kim Caldwell for about 12 years and she is wonderful! She does great work , is a very pleasant person, and goes out of her way to help me. She does fittings at my office and brings the clothes back to me. I am an in-between size and she has altered just about every type of clothes for me. In addition to alterations, she designs many of my clothes for me, picks the fabrics and creates the patterns. I can't say enough about how happy I am to have found her, and I have worked with a lot of different tailors over the years.
Kim is very efficient and kind.She does everything in her power to make you happy and works very hard with her clients to keep them involved with any decisions that need to be made. I have been a client for many years and I view Kim to be the VERY BEST!!!
Kim is the best . Growing up, my mother sewed all my clothes as well as her own. Unfortunately, due to health problems, she can no longer sew. She had a closet full of clothes that needed altering - Kim came and in a matter of about an hour and 1/2 - she had all the clothes fitted, pinned and ready to take back to the shop. The clothes don't look altered and they fit perfectly. Mom now has a closet full of clothes and Kim has a client for life. Again - Kim is the best at her trade of designing, sewing and altering.
