hello,
there isn't a lot of clothes in larger sizes, i am women size 10to 12 and often found the large only just fitted my very slim daughter size 8-10 !! cheap dresses and sarongs are greta while you are therebut unless you live in the tropics (like i do0 not much use when you get home. i purchased some nice tops/blouses and smart suits from the Mata Hari dept store, 27,000 -30,000rps for tops and 75,000rps for suit.
forget about underwear,
best buys were sarongs make great tablecloths when home, cheap summer dresses t shirts -wish ihad bought more especially copy ck which i paid 30,000rps, leather shoes cost 30,000rps, and handbags and silver jewellery. some of the posh department stores were more expensive than back home and no bartering.
good luck and remember if quality clothing is what you want get it made,
jane
