From the reviews

I went in there with my girlfriend not too long ago and they were very helpful. The manager Kristen has great taste and personally helped my girlfriend. She was able pick out multiple outfits for her to fit her style and even suggested items to branch her out of her comfort zone and mix it up a bit. Very sweet woman.

Tueday April 9th 2024 I went to take care of my layaway. Went in the store was greeted by Chelsea 3st assistant. When I got to the the counter I felt real funny and unsteady on my feet. Chelsea immediately suggested to have a seat over on the seat by the mirror. Chelsea kept checking on me offering me water.

Cato is a great women's shop to get up-to-date styles without going broke. Each store has slightly different stock so if you find something you like grab it up, or risk it not being available later. All staff are super friendly and will help find items online or in other stores if needed.

Plus size bridal & formal at Cato Fashions

Cato Fashions comes up for plus size bridal and formal wear — confirmed on their own site. Two things to know before the trip. First, bridal shopping is usually by appointment — book ahead, and when you call, ask what size range their try-on samples come in. A shop can order almost any gown in your size, but the sample sizes on the floor decide whether you actually get to see yourself in the dress, and the good plus bridal shops stock samples to try, not just to imagine. Second, plan the alterations timeline: gowns and formal dresses typically go through two or three fittings, so the comfortable window is starting your search around 8–10 months before the date and saying yes to a gown by 6.
