What size show jacket would fit a size 8?

I'm finding it impossible to find a show jacket that fits! I've got a 32 which seems to be the smallest ladies, but thats too big. I tried a 30 (maids) which was ok in the body but too short on the arms.

My tweed is actually a Kookai jacket that I had adapted. I'm thinking about just looking for a suit jacket instead??

I just want a nice fitted show jacket for dressage. :(

maybe something like this - and i'll get flaps put in the back?

Depending on what your budget is, talk to the likes of Pretty Ponies, Designer browbands etc they do custom made ones, they may even be able to adapt a second hand one for your needs. Or do you have a tailor in your town (or near you). Find a jacket you really really like but in a size bigger(2 sizes is probably better as easier to unstitch and put back together) and get them to take it in for you
