From the reviews
I went in here, and had to leave before I ended up purchasing everything! I ended up getting a dress that was the exact same dress(in a different color) as the dress I purchases from Macy's! I couldn't believe that a dress that I paid $40 for as a clearance item at Macy's could be found for $5 at Rainbow!
Elena a very friendly cashier and helpful with selecting items on my purchase.I went back today 10/4/23 and Gina was the associate who helped me with my purchases. Very friendly and great customer service skills. Great staff you guys.
Great prices, great clothes. I would buy more if they had a fitting room to try things on, but what I did buy I liked.
Came here last week and purchased a few things. It’s really hard not to want to buy clothes, since it’s priced at a fairly low rate. The sad part was that there was no fitting room so you really need to know your size before shopping. REMEMBER to ask for your receipt, because you cannot make any returns without it.
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.
