> She did not buy the dress, which she liked very much.

Ignoring matches with the existing sentences, a better English sentence would be one of these:

She did not buy the dress, although she liked it very much.
She did not buy the dress that she liked so much.
She did not buy the dress that she really liked.

I believe that the last two might match the Russian. What do you think, @marafon?

What does the Japanese mean, @small_snow or @Pfirsichbaeumchen?

The Japanese simply translates as, "She (liked the dress very much/really liked the dress), but didn't buy it." I think "She did not buy the dress, although she liked it very much" would also match just fine.

I suppose the Russian can be unlinked either way because "платье" is "dress" and "одежда" is "clothes", but let's wait for Marina's reply. :)

+1
одежда ≠ dress

I would translate it as:

She didn't use to buy clothes that she really liked.

Thanks, both of you! I missed the одежда/dress mismatch.
