Dress forms here are so expensive (usually about AUD$450 or those plastic Singer ones on sale for $150 but same problems - can't pad out). I will work out what size and find out how much to get one out here. I'll need the padding stuff too and even if it is expensive with shipping it will be useful for ever!
