wow sorry they wont let you have an opinion tuberose have to agree with you Alta Moda quality is suberb just came back from doing some business with my daughter on dance costumes there. Have spent many years tredding the streets in denpasar to only get hot bothered and finding sometimes some fabulous materials and other times just dead right frustrated.Yes alta moda do try to push for you to buy that lttle extra but I found their prices fantastic, sure some are a bit more expensive than australia but we sure got some amazing bargains here!Just go there with the knowledge of exactly what you want and how much you will be fine!Lesson learnt - I have a friend who imports clothing designs from bali went to denpasar bought whole heap satin fabric for bargain prices looked good ended up marking badly and fell apart when sewn shes so out of pocket here.Cheapest isnt always the best and for all the tramping around Id have to do in aus to get a bargain Im very happy with alta moda. They wait on you bring you tea,water,coffee while you lounge back comfortably and continuely drap exotic fabric on the floor in front of you mmm!!! cant be too bad ,personally love shopping there! Even the best tailor in bali who dosnt really like them(no names here)recommended I go there for quality fabric, so theres my personal opinion people can like it or not but tuberose I listen to your suggestions and welcome them thanks again!p.s. the only way to shop in denpasar successfully is to take along your tailor who knows exactly what shop and how much things cost, saves time and money in end!!!!
