If you are getting frustrated at the sizes of these dresses, try looking on ebay for 'Polyneasian Pattern'. Back in the 60s or 70's one company put out a lot of sewing patterns in polynesian styles. I noticed the very vava voom ones can go for 30 bucks a pattern, but at least you have a chance of finding your size, and then getting it made up in a fabric that isn't old and prone to ripping.
