Well, right *now*, all the clothes are store-bought. ;-) But I'm going to have to start sewing soon because Ianto needs shirts and ties.
Where do you get your Re-ment things?
eBay is where it's all happing these days - You can get everything that's available there. The only trick is to always search the stores/buy now stuff and find the couple of sellers that don't charge a fortune for shipping - Many of them are in China and you pay quite a bit for shipping. There are only a couple of US sellers so sometimes it pays to be patient and wait for a certain set you want to come in through their store.
And for your needs, I would also search for "1/6" in the "Toys and Games/Action Figures" category... Besides Re-Ment (aimed at Barbie,) there is a *huge* military action figure industry (aimed at the GI Joe'ers) and there is a lot of cooking gear and weapons and so forth available.
Keep in mind that all the 1/6 stuff is *plastic* - It looks impressive and is rugged for playing but it's not nearly the quality that you've probably been dealing with.
