From the reviews

Decent prices. Sales are pretty good but you have to search for a decent item. Mainly for the middle-aged lady. A great deal (98%ish) of their clothing is loose fitting so it's perfect for those postpartum ladies or moms who never got their bodies back! (I'm with you ladies!

★★★★☆ — Lane, Feb 2018

Very professional and helpful staff. They don't hover if you tell them you are just browsing but they are always at the ready to help when you ask. My only suggestion is that they carry more bras like the one across town. I'd rather not have to go over there.

★★★★☆ — Deb, Dec 2018

Excellent customer service. More plus size selections would be nice. More longer length tops with short sleeves and more flat waist capris for summer would be great.

★★★★☆ — Amberandallie, Jun 2018

Prices were great (found a cute skirt for $1.99 and the whole top to bottom outfit for $35.00). The employees were very nice and helpful.

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.
