My absolute favorite women's clothing store! They have the best styles for plus sizes at great prices. My husband went into this Fayetteville location and helped me find a green top for a special occasion. He liked the clothing and prices so much he even bought me a few other pieces he thought I should wear!

★★★★★ — Carla, Jun 2019

I like the clothes they have here, the prices and quality are decent, and their sales people have always been extra helpful. I got several items I really like a few months back and ended up with clothes that on my own I never would have chosen to try on if it hadn't been been for the helpful staff.

★★★★★ — K, Jul 2018

Excellent selection and staff. I enjoy every visit. Not only does the manager remember my name, but I mentioned a friend frequently shops there, and she remembers her by name also and asks how she is when I see her now. Really a boutique feel in our community...and always stylish. :)

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.
