From the reviews

I give them 5 starts for the effort. My daughter stoped in for a blouse but did not find one. The staff members tried to help but did not find the right blouse.

★★★★★ — Sayed, Oct 2018

I was looking for a pair of boots. The first store didn't have my size in the color I wanted so I went to another store and got lucky. I also found a cute dress to go perfectly with the boots and both were on sale!! The staff was super friendly, supportive and made it a wonderful experience.

★★★★★ — Regina, Jan 2024

They have some pretty nice styles here. They have a nice range of woman's sizes to include the plus size woman. This is nothing new to them, like it is for some stores that are just now adding larger sizes to their inventory.

★★★★☆ — *, Nov 2021

Very honest employees my wife was trying on rings and left her wedding ring up there and I wish I knew the employees name. The store manager Margo was very protective about giving it to us I want to thank them very much.

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.
