I notoriously hate the clothes that you can get at the retail stores. Sorry fashionistas, but I will not fork over $300 for a scarf to stand out and be unique either...are you crazy?!
By chance while looking for a dress for our Christmas party for last year I came upon this fantastic site. Eshakti.com. And I can't say enough great things about them! They constantly are re-vamping what is available, and make clothes custom fit to YOUR measurements upon request. Even with customization fees I have never paid more then $100 for any single item...even in a full length dress made of 100% SILK! Everything is made in India, but honestly what isn't in retail? Production and shipping is very fast too, and the hand embroidery is mesmerizing! The same quality as vintage wedding kimonos! TO DIE FOR!
Here are a few examples of the items I have purchased, and a tiny bit of advice, if you see something you like you have to pounce on it...once the material is out it is gone forever!
I am plus sized, and they have made all of my clothes very flattering, I could never ask for anything more...well except more clothes of course! Last photo is me in all of my leopard print glory in my fantastic fabulous dress for Christmas. Hand beaded swoon!

Hand embroidered summer, my favorite dress...but mine is royal blue.

My favorite silk blouse, hand crocheted detailing down the front.
My favorite dress, in sheer Georgette leopard print with hand beaded tiger eye, fully lined with hidden pockets. It also had tiny lurex metallic threads running vertically in silver and gold.
