“Nice selection of clothes reasonable prices.”

From the reviews

Very friendly and helpful staff. Feels much different than shopping at other stores. And the clothes are very nice looking!

★★★★★ — Elizabeth, Feb 2022

An absolutely awesome shopping experience! The sales associates working at the Behrman store in New Orleans went above and beyond to make sure my experience was pleasant and professional. The tailoring and length of their pants was surprising, considering I'm 5'9" and can't often find pants long enough.

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.
