From the reviews

I used to shop at Cato Fashions regularly, but I haven't been in several years. I stopped by today, and they've really stepped their game up. We were greeted by Jessica. She was a pleasure and very helpful. They have so many cute clothes, shoes, handbags, and accessories for affordable prices.

Love the employees! Always willing to help and greet you with a smile and the manager knows me by name. Cato is my favorite store, and out of all the stores I've been to, the employees at the Russellville location are the friendliest and most helpful. I only wish they had a bigger selection!

★★★★★ — Kristi, Aug 2018

Love to shop here. Very friendly and helpful staff. Moderately priced, especially if you do more shopping in clearance as I do. Great selection in plus size and gorgeous purses and other accessories.

★★★★★ — Eddi, Mar 2016

The staff was friendly and not overly bothersome while I shopped. They were helpful with ordering an item in my size and shipping it to a store closer to my home.

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.
