Woman baffled as Nasty Gal send wrong outfit that leaves her looking 'like Hagrid'

A woman was left with a giant frock "fit for Hagrid" after Nasty Gal mistakenly sent her the wrong size.

Demileigh Moore had hoped to look like a glam fortune teller - but the frock was far too large for her petite size 12 frame.

The nail and lash technician was left in stitches after trying it on and discovering just how enormous it was.

Hilarious snaps show how the neckline skims her belly button while the sleeves droop over her fingertips.

The 27-year-old modelled the dress in front of a client at her at-home salon and the pair cried with laughter over the dress.

After sharing the photos online, people quipped it could only be a size 12 for JK Rowling's character Hagrid.

Demileigh, from Shirebrook, Derbyshire, said: "I couldn't stop laughing - it's just so funny. I opened it as I work in a cabin in my garden as a lash technician.

"I was just laughing so much because of how big it was.

"I think the girl whose eyelashes I was doing thought I was over exaggerating but when she opened her eyes, she took a picture and I put it on Facebook. Everyone else thought it was hilarious too."

Demileigh had hoped the flowing frock would give off the air of mystery she was hoping for as a fortune teller after spotting the £12 outfit online.

She said: "We couldn't stop laughing as we couldn't believe how big it was. I didn't wear it in the end. I don't know how they get it so wrong. I don't think they go up to that size anyway.

"It wasn't even a couple of sizes too big, it's got to have been a size 24. It was just huge. Because it's oversized, I don't know if that was meant to be that size. It did say size 12 inside it.

"It's off-shoulder and it has a drawstring. People had said they've ordered oversized things before and just pull the drawstrings really tight, but honestly the sleeves were huge and even if I'd pulled it really tight it'd still have fallen down.

"I'll send it back for a refund and I'll be careful with what I order next time."

Social media users found the oversized outfit fail hilarious.

One joked: "Size 12 for who.....Hagrid?"

Another added: "Honestly me and you could have gone camping for a week in that."

Nasty Gal confirmed Demileigh was sent a 'missized' item as Demileigh had suspected.

A Nasty Gal spokesperson said: "At Nasty Gal we take product quality very seriously and it is our priority to ensure that our customers are always entirely happy with our garments.

"In this instance, we acknowledged that Demileigh had obviously been sent a missized item and we issued her with a refund."
