About all we can do is to withhold money for extras until she comes up with the clothes. And if she doesn't, she'll be out a lot of money but that won't recover her sisters' favorite clothes.

Frankly, I would tell her she won't be getting tuition unless everything is returned (in whatever shape) by a certain date.
My parents did that to my sister and it was remarkable how quickly everything was returned to my mom and I !
