From the reviews

Service was good and very courteous but I was disappointed. They had sold out of everything I went in to buy, which was good for them I guess. But after that they didn't have anything else in the store I wanted. I needed it in Ladies sizes and they only had it in plus size.

★★★★★ — Barbara, Jan 2023

The young lady was very nice and helpful. Didnt catch her name but she had a red sweater dress on. They had tons of beautiful things to pick from.

★★★★★ — Kimberly, Jan 2021

Clean and organized. Helpful customer services. Gorgeous clothes. Great sale racks. Not many size 26/28. Beautiful fall colors.

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.
