School formals

Sarah Travers has been totting up how expensive it can be for teenage girls, or their parents, to get ready for their big night.

It's easier for the boys, they just rent a suit, buy a corsage and that's it, but for the girls the preparations can go on for months and at a price.

On this week's very stylish Family Focus, Sarah meets the girls and boys of Belfast's models schools to find out just how much it all costs.
