Update 2:
Skipped the shoes, as appon inspectin them the quality was low, I'll pull it off with a pair of dark brown shoes.
Bought silver cufflinks and tie pin.
Cheaped out and bought lynx dark temptations, I'm back to being frugal well sorry of :P.
I'm all ready :D, thanks fellow Ozbargainer's :P
Update:
Hey everyone I got a great wool charcoal suit, shirt and a tie all for $259! It's a really beautiful suit for a bargain much less than I though I'd have to pay for a wool suit :D.
Got it at Oxford Harbour Town, it's where they clear out stock at reduced price, so actual price is cheaper than there other stores and website.
I'd just like to thank you all for all the help in finding a suit on such short notice, you've all been incredibly helpful and awesome :D.
Now I just need to get some cufflinks, tie pin and cologne :).
Will gold cufflinks and tie pin go with my suit or is silver better suited?
Was thinking of the ones from Tarocash.
I find the tie pins and cufflinks to be too contemporary, modern for my taste though.
Does anybody have recommendations for tie pins and cufflinks?
I was thinking about these shoes cheapest good pair I could find, or these Rivers shoes are even cheaper but I find rivers shoes sole's collapse in on the inside of the shoe
Does anyone have recommendations on shoes at about $50, and cologne.
Hey all, I have a school formal this Friday and I need a suit and shoe's ASAP, I have absolutely no idea where to get a suit and shoe's at a good price, or hire, and what kind of suit I need?
Any advice is much appreciated.
Thanks fellow Ozbargainer's :)
Budget to buy is about up to $300 for the suit but preferably less as I'm a student :)

Black is more my color as it goes good with my black hear, I'm more of a stylish smart dresser but don't like those ultra tight diamond? Suits.

if you are really on a tight budget, try big W, Target or KMart specially if it will be a one off thing. or if you really like quality, a lot of places do formal hire.
Google is your friend buddy.
