So far as I can find from a shelf full of dictionaries the use of roupas (pl) is not good Portuguese. In English it can be clothes or clothing, but not so in Pt or Spanish. Clothes/clothing are both rendered by roupa (ropa) in the singular. I was starting from the English and "sua roupa" was marked wrong. With the cheek of an anglófono I reported it as a mistake in the Portuguese.
