“The store always has a great selection of clothes at great prices and the staff are super friendly and helpful!”

From the reviews

I fell in love with Barbara..she was just the sweetest..I was trying to find a dress and kept looking at a particularly one and she comes over and says that one matches your eyes and I said really I'm just tired of always wearing the same colors and she says well be different and get the other one..

I love this store !! But they are closing them ! I hate it ! This is my easy go to store for a basic work outfit or a night out ! Reasonable prices ! I wish they keep them open ! I have to travel futher now but it’s worth it ! I wish they would bring back the old style clothes !

Place is well organized. Perfectly small in a great area, wish the staff was of a younger group so my teenage family members could come visit. She say that rainbow is for older people. Also please update the time on the google info.

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.
