......The markets at the start of Garlic Lane(2 shops), also at the Sindhu Markets at Sanur(from several shops), as well as Tootsies there, then again at Happy Shop in CandiDasa.
I also paid only 50,000rp for the mid calf length dresses with thin shoudler straps, that have a keyhole opening in the middle of the gathered bust line, and also the ones that have a vertical frill down the front, with embroidered hem and a thin halter neck strap.
I thought it was a great price too, as we were paying 50,000rp for the shorter version shirred ones for my daughter last year.
The only dresses I paid more for were the 2 cut-out embroidered hem ones, with a zigzag finished edging and large flowers on - 80,000rp. That was from the two dress shops almost opposite Indo National in Padma St - they have always been harder to bargain with from my past experience!
