Default suit rental

Hi I'll arrive in Melbourne next week from France. I'll attend a seminar
(named "Sustaining Prosperity") held at the university of Melbourne with
important people like the minester for education.
I'd like to know if I need to bring my own suit or if it's possible to
rent a suit for 2 days. If it is, does anyone know how much it costs and
where I've to go?
Thank you in advance

There are plenty of men's formal wear rental shops, but most of these
cater mainly to people who want to rent a suit for a wedding or formal
ball/dinner. However, many will probably also have business suits for
hire. Here are some examples:

I don't know what typical prices are - email them and find out.

It would be wise to check with the organisers before you go to that
expense to see what, if any, dress standards are expected. However, I
can't see any reason why your own suit shouldn't be fine unless you've
had it since you were a hippy in the seventies. Even then...
