“👗 According to one expert women’s-clothing-shopper, Cato has great prices, good sense of style, & a lot of options.”

From the reviews

Cato FashIons is next to JCPenney Final Take Paris Towne Center. 👗 According to one expert women’s-clothing-shopper, Cato has great prices, good sense of style, & a lot of options. Juniors, petite, plus sizes. For taller women w/longer legs Cato is a godsend, they can find pants here that actually fit.

You can return an item if you have your receipt. I returned several pairs of sunglasses until I got the right ones. Service was always great and no questions asked about my return. There wasn't anything wrong with them, just didn't fit for me. The clothing is just precious.

★★★★★ — Elizabeth, Jul 2019

I have always loved Cato Fashions! I shopped there with my mom as a teenager, and now there as an adult. The clothing that I get from there is always good quality fashionable clothing for a reasonable price. They are also one of the few places that still offer layaway as an option.

★★★★★ — Paula, Sep 2023

Cato usually has some nice clothes and their prices are generally reasonable… I but a lot of my business casual clothes there… once you learn your size and know the styles you like and flatter your figure finding something you like is easy..

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.
