Mind you i bought in for yr 10 formal, and ended up going to my b'fs yr 12 that year instead, so now i get to wear it twice.
I'm beginning to wonder if it's worth it!!!!

my year 10 cost about 320 altered.
this year is costing me a fair bit... i'm getting it made up. $250 dress maker's fee, $50 on diamontes, $120 on fabric... so around $420. wow that's a lot more than i intended...

Mum bought me mine, the reason it was 1000 is because there is really nothing i've ever seen like it - should post a pic of it on here (as soon as i get the dress from parents house, digital camera, etc etc).
Too much?

I don't know, as I have not purchased it at this stage. I'm still waiting for one which makes me look really pretty. If not I will go to the formal as God made me.
