Catherine's Women's Plus Size Clothing Store Online! Offering classic career and casual clothing for plus-size women at moderate prices, Catherine's Stores Corporation has more than 400 stores in 44 states. Catherine's fills a much-needed niche by recognizing the fashion needs of women who wear sizes 16W to 26W and 28W to 34W, a size range not readily offered. Petite lengths in sizes 16WP to 26WP are also available in over half of the stores. Catherine's originated in Memphis, in 1960, with a single store owned by Catherine Weaver, whose goal was to bring style to the plus-size market. As the concept became successful, more stores opened throughout the South. In 1960, a group of investors bought the chain, then called Catherine's Stout Shoppes, and formed Catherine's. Catherine's prides itself on being a company for women and managed by women. It has always strived to provide outstanding customer service in a comfortable store environment. Sales associates are specially trained to anticipate the needs of the customer and always put her first. Click Here for Catherines Clothing Specials!
