“Being a plus size my self, it was very refreshing to find tasteful and classy clothes with very reasonable prices.”

From the reviews

Didn't buy anything, Just looked around the store. I do plan to return to purchase clothes. I was very pleased with the clothes I saw. It's a small store, but the clothes are excellent quality. Very stylish plus sizes, and smaller sizes.

★★★★★ — Teri, Jan 2023

This is my favorite place to shop. I love the plus size selection and the prices are very reasonable. The sales associates are always courteous and helpful without hovering over you like some places.

★★★★★ — Special, Aug 2018

Jasmine and Marie were the true definition of hospitality and service with smile! Both were eager to offer their assistance and were very knowledgable in answering all of our questions. Being a plus size my self, it was very refreshing to find tasteful and classy clothes with very reasonable prices.

★★★★★ — Rosie, Sep 2020

***** 5 extra stars. I gained weight during COVID & haven't worn a dress in years & had no idea what my dress size is now. I asked the employees to guess, & they were spot on. As soon as I walked in the door I was amazed at the selection. Half the store is plus size & half is jr/miss.

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.
