Why not dress her up as the old woman in her cap that sat next to the guillotine knitting ... much easier, just cap, dress, stubble and knitting needles with some knitting on it!

Google it, and check eBay.
Local joke shop, cheap (pound shop type) kitchen shop?
Maybe because we are close to France, but there are loads down here in St Chav on Sea.

If you have no luck tomorrow PM me and I can try for you on Tuesday and 1st class them up. Saw a lot of plastic fruit today, can't remember if there were any onions, but worth a go if all else fails.

Use real onions,for an authentic French effect.

For an authentic French look (well Paris anyway) dress her up very smartly with a touch of flair. But then most of the audience won't realise that this is how the French dress.

Away. Just give her a white flag. Much cheaper.

Dirty up an old OEM shirt (Marseille football club), draw on a bit of stubble and give her a baguette and hey presto, you've got your average southerner. A scooter is an optional extra.

Yes, you are right, that was in poor taste in retrospect.
