From the reviews

I am plus sized and on a budget, I was looking for a specific type of outfit for an elegant evening. 1 trip to the fitting room and I had the perfect outfit. The staff was exceptional!

★★★★★ — Margy, Nov 2021

Needed a dress for a wedding last minute. All the ladies but in particular Latreece was very helpful and made feel like a valued customer. I walked away happy with my purchase.

★★★★★ — Rachel, Jan 2019

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.
