It's True! Western-sized Women's Clothes in Bangkok
 
It's True ~~ and proven!!!!!! Central Department Store (Chidlom) has a Mark and Spencer's on the 2nd or 3rd floor (can't remember which) that carries Western women's sizes. I tried having a tailor make me some casual blouses, but wasn't really happy with the results. So I went to CDS ~~ based on a rumor ~~ and was able to buy several very casual and casual dressy T-tops. Since this is a UK store, the sizes are really European and I had to get one, and sometimes two, sizes bigger than I wear in the US.
But I am pleased with everything I found at Mark and Spencer's.

Good luck to anyone else who is in need of Western-sized clothes.

McBeanie, I think in several of the malls you can get "western"size clothes Paragon for example carries lots of bigger sizes ( I am talking bigger than a size 2!!) I have bought a number of things from here.

Nicky Prada does have western sizes but still NOT my size!

I also buy western sizes at CDS. Glad you found nice things!

I've been buying the British India brand for years and it fits me. There's a freestanding British India store in Central World Plaza and a boutique inside Chitlom department store. There are other ones around town,too. It's a Malaysian company.
