Smik in Windsor has some really nice things. If you live in the area it's worth a look (but I suppose everyone else will look there too).

Be careful of local shopping centres, because that's where everyone else is going.

I saw a really gorgeous dress at Seduce today and am thinking about getting it for my formal, but want to look around first. I figured, even if you buy your dress from shops like Myer, DJs, Seduce, Sheike and wherever else you buy it, if you buy it months before the formal, you'll have a less chance of bumping into someone wearing the same dress as chances are most people buy their clothes just a few weeks before the formal :D

i have just recently start searching for my year 12 formal dress and couldn't really find any that i like or suits my taste/personality. i've been to Macquaire and Parramatta Westifield but i really can't find anything. i am thinking of a cocktail dresses cause long dresses is harder to find and it might not fit me(cause i'm skinny), Strap dresses(i had disaster in the past that is total embarrassing and i cannot let it down). Does anyone knows where i can find some really nice dresses that can really FITS me perfectly without any accidents or making myself a completely idiot at the formal? Some place that is within Sydney.

Have you tried Ebay? There is a very good seller, her id is eliza_veta2, she has a shop as well can't remember the name though- something Boutique anyway she sells top quality branded dresses and has very formal ones too from time to time at very affordable prices (under 250 definately). Check it out :)
