Nail and lash technician Demileigh Moore, 27, from Shirebrook, Derbyshire, bought the oversized maxi dress in a size 12 last month to wear to a fancy dress party. 

But the dress swamped her tiny frame with snaps showing her wearing the £12 cotton gown’ with the neckline skimming her belly button while the sleeves droop over her fingertips.

The beautician modelled the dress in front of a client at her at-home salon and the pair cried with laughter over the dress, which Demileigh believes is at least six dress sizes too big and is a size 24.

Disappointed Demileigh has vowed to be more cautious when ordering oversized clothes in future as social media users quipped it could only be a size 12 for loveable giant Hagrid.

 ‘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,’ she explained. 

‘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.’

After sharing a snap of it online, social media users found the oversized outfit fail hilarious

‘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.

Demileigh eventually wore a different dress when she dressed up as the fortune teller
