Gilda is awesome. I've been a customer of her shop for years. She always helps my sister find the perfect dress for her pageants and even get them in at the last minute. She absolutely delivers a winner every single time.Have never had a bad experience there.

Plus size bridal & formal at Signature

Signature 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.
