From the reviews

I love this store ..the workers are so friendly and nice too ... I asked for help and the lady stopped what she was doing to help me find a black dress for my daughter's graduation..

★★★★★ — Demetria, May 2022

I love the quality of the clothes here so I decided to shop for a much needed wardrobe. I started on the left and wondered why I wasn't finding much of my size. I asked another lady who was shopping and she directed me to the right side of the store where she said the "normal" sizes were!?

★★★★★ — Lorraine, Sep 2023

Lots of clothes for plus size ladies and a good clearance section with good prices. I was disappointed a little because I could not find any professional interviewing quality clothing( suit jacket and slacks) What I did find were jackets that were way too short.

★★★★☆ — Tiffany, Mar 2019

I love the store,but they don't carry very much in small sizes. When they do have small sizes they are usually petite. I am 5'6 and my legs are long.

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.
