From the reviews

Found a gift here, in plus size, which can be hard. Can usually find something for myself in regular sizes, too. Really ready for the Saraland Cato store to find a better space like the one in Mobile did. The shopping center in Saraland where Cato is now isn't well maintained.

★★★★☆ — Ultreya, Nov 2018

Wife doesnt like to be bothered while shopping. This shop asked if she needed help but didn't hover. This is mid-range dress clothes. Wife found several outfits for work and they have lay-a-way which makes it easier for her to get what she wants before it's out of stock.

★★★★★ — Josh, Mar 2019

I needed help finding an outfit suitable for an event that's way fancier than a hillbilly girl usually goes to. They helped me find a super cute and comfy outfit that was suitable for my event.

★★★★★ — Cindy, Oct 2019

Found an outfit, 2 extra shirts and a new pair of shoes all for $60. Just wasn't a very big selection of my type of clothing.

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.
