We did the same with my first daughter it all came to £600 for dance and formal as we bought it all from shop s we thought we should have and bought too much as thought we d need spares , but my second daughter was on an mds and I wanted to make the money last fortunately some of her sister s could be passed down but leotards had changed and she was smaller so some uniform did nt fit either ,but I managed to get it half the price by shopping around second hand is fine and very exceptable as once it all goes into the washing system it all looks the same and is good qaulity so washes fine x
