  Hi guys, anyone knows what cool clothes to get in the States that isn't as common in Singapore.
  
  Of course we all know, in a gobalized economy, everything is available everywhere nowadays, but since I'm flying over, I'm looking to buy some nice clothes that's rare here, which also will probably be cheaper since I buy direct right? Thks

  I'm got tons of Banana Republic clothes coz I'm a huge fan of this brand. There's another brand call....'Fitch and Abercrombie' (I think)... you won't get in Singapore.
  
  There's your usual Guess, GAP & Old Navy stores and I'm also a sucker of Tommy Hilfiger. Of coz Ralph Lauren is a staple there.
  
  Get Nautica and Timberland stuff too!
  
  Bid byebye to Giordano and Baleno in Singapore (I can't stand these!)

  Hi Uncle Moo : )
  
  From shopping experience, I've found that the best places to shop overseas (US, Australia, NZ) are Not at the big department stores, but at the smaller retail shops : ) Prices are great, & quality impeccable. I've got dresses that cost me S$16/- & the quality is way better than the HDB or pasar malam kind. In fact, the clothes look like they're from normal department stores.
  
  By the way, if you chance upon Saks 5th Avenue, you might want to check out Fendi
