From the reviews

This shop has a huge variety of clothes though it's mainly tops. Since I shop in the the plus size section, I didn't have an easy time finding size 24 jeans and while I'm doing my best to lose weight so I can fit smaller sizes, the lack of size 24 pants compared to the other sizes is the only reason the shop gets four…

I love rainbows for its young and hip plus size department and that they have sizes up to 4x awesome. And the soft knit material is amazing. And the prices are very affordable.

★★★★★ — Bernice, Jan 2019

I love Rainbow Shop. They have a wide range of nice plus size clothes for women at a reasonable price. Everything in the store is very reasonably. If you need to get an outfit for the day or weekend, just go to Rainbow. You are sure to find what you need.

★★★★★ — Theresa, May 2018

I usually avoid shopping on Fordham because it's so congested, but to my pleasant surprise, I had an amazing shopping experience at this Rainbow location! This location has the largest plus size selection that I have ever seen at a Rainbow store. The manager, Diallo, was pleasant, patient, and helpful.

Plus size bridal & formal at Rainbow Shops

Rainbow Shops 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.
