Everyone who says "Chinese" or "Mandarin" is wrong.
Mandarin has more native speakers than any other language, but it is not widely learned as a second language.
ENGLISH is the most USED language in world because when you count both native speakers and speakers who learn it as a second or third language, it is far and away the most USED language in the world.
The banking industry and the air travel industry use English almost exclusively. You walk into the airport in Kjiv, Ukraine and all the signs are in Ukrainian and ENGLISH. English is the official second language of Ukraine even. English is the official language of India and everyone there learns it as a second language, as well as throughout much of Africa.
ENGLISH is the most USED language in the world.
Edit for Brian Q. You are wrong still. Mandarin is NOT the most used language. Go to any airport in the world and you will read only the local language with ENGLISH. Go to any bank in the world and you will read only the local language and ENGLISH. You'll never hear a word of Mandarin spoken on the streets of Nairobi, Kyiv, New Delhi, or Lagos. You WILL hear English spoken quite often. When I purchased a Ukrainian translation of "The Lord of the Rings", the plastic bag it was placed in by the store clerk was all in English. Every taxi driver in Kyiv knows a little English and not a word of Mandarin. I have purchased DVDs on both sides of the Atlantic. They ALL have English language options. NONE of them have Mandarin language options. Get your facts straight. Mandarin has the most native speakers--no argument here--but Mandarin is NOT the most used language in the world. I really doubt your research skills when you claim that NORWEGIAN could be in the list of number one most used languages. Get off the drugs. Get some psychological help.
FURTHER EDIT: I continue to be amazed at how many people post answers on Yahoo! Answers who don't know a thing about what they are talking about. Spanish? When's the last time you heard Spanish in any country outside the Americas or Spain? Never. And, of course, I am still laughing at "Norwegian".
Look at the facts, people. It's English. Go anywhere in the world and you can find an English speaker. Go to Kathmandu and try to find someone who speaks Norwegian. Go to Harare and try to find anyone who speaks Mandarin. Go to Dnipropetrovsk and try to find any who speaks Spanish. Yet in all these cities you'll find English being taught in the public schools as either a required or a strongly suggested second language.

Answer
Well here's a list of places in Delhi -
1. Pahar Ganj market, near Connaught Place - there is one shop in particular, it stands out because it has a glass window and door as opposed to being a make-shift stall/shop. They export a lot of clothes to Monsoon, Naf Naf, Lipsy etc. I got lovely things there. A gorgeous dress for 10dollars, a lipsy top for 4dollars! The rest of Pahar ganj is good for hippy skirts, bags etc - pay no more than 150rs for the skirts.
2. Sarojini Nagar market - it has a huge export market, you really have to dig into the heaps of clothes to find what you want. Go in the morning to beat the crowds. They often have Billabong, Fornarina and Monsoon clothes for example. It's best for tops, skirts and dresses - you can be adamant and get almost anything for 100 rs (around 2 dollars) but dont go beyond 250rs - unless it's AMAZING.
Good luck! :)
