PLATINUM FASHION MALL

You cannot visit Bangkok without doing a bit of shopping. If you are looking for cheap clothes and don’t care about name brands you recognize, this is the place to go. Some 1,200 or so small shops are roughly divided into themed floors, such as jeans, shoes, purses, etc. Platinum is focused on bulk purchases and wholesale, so there may not be an option to try things on, but they will rarely turn down a sale if you just want one of something. Whether you are looking for beachwear, ball gowns, suede shoes, or earrings, you will not be disappointed here. This is actually where most of the street vendors and small shop owners in Thailand and around the world go to buy their inventory, so expect to see enormous bags full of clothes piled throughout the mall in any available spaces. Extra tip: if you are looking for big savings and have a bit of room in your luggage, buying three of something is generally the magic number to give you a steep discount.
