From the reviews

Absolutely LOVE this store! Drove over an hour to shop here. So many cute options and awesome pricing! Everything fits perfectly. Very good quality. Sizing is awesome! Had the best customer service! Cannot wait to come back. Wish the company would bring a store back to Coldwater!

★★★★★ — Amy, Oct 2020

They are wonderful, they have sizes from xsmall to sometimes as great as xxxlarge. Clothing have the articles maked down from the main tags. You can see what the price was to see what you are saving. The clothing is from casual to work clothing. I love this place IT'S just a few doors down from Target to the East.

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.
