Thanks for all your help guys. Went to China Town yesterday and bought some lovely kimonos. As you said, it was a bit overwhelming but hey ....I've done it now.
I want to buy some silk kimonos as presents to send home. I thought that China Town would be the best place but not sure which shop to go to. I dont want to spend a fortune but neither do I want something that's rubbish. So if anyone has any suggestions I'd be really grateful.
