From the reviews
I love shopping at Rainbow! They such of a wide variety of selection of fashionable styles! And the pricing is so reasonable! They also have a large selection of plus size clothing! I gained a lot of weight and I bought a whole new wardrobe there! I never had to pay more than $22 there, and they're always having sales!
The older African-American lady who is a manager I think, has worked there for years and is always nice and helpful. The place is jam packed with stock and it’s hard to comfortably navigate the store. Of course online has a wider selection but if you need something sooner i recommend coming here.
I went on my lunch break and as busy as it was, I was still in and out in a reasonable time. A very wide selection, really reasonable prices. I shared a laugh with one of the associates so that's always good.
It's not as big as the south side store but the selection is still good. I mainly go to this Rainbow for cute heels for myself and cute shoes/boots for my nieces. Also the staff is helpful as well.
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.
