This one lands on the Misfits Rack because of a labelling mix-up at the supplier end: the swing tag and polybag it arrived in are marked 4XL, but the garment's own sewn-in label correctly reads XL, and we've checked the measurements to confirm it's a true XL (UK 16) fit. Go by the size in this listing rather than the tag or bag it comes in.

I can't believe I waited so long to buy this cardigan.
Do yourself a favour and buy this cardigan. It's going to be a perfect layer of warmth and style.
I have ummed and aahed about dying my hair a neon colour for ages. I'm usually a hot pink/ blueish-purple kinda gal but lately neon accessories and make-up has been catching my eye. I coloured a few strands amongst my go to plum earlier this year and fair to say I loved it. And it glowed in the dark! My hair is extremely short, thick and grows quickly, so every time I touched up my roots I found myself adding more and more neon green to the undercut and tips. Loads of people (including my mum - a rarity!) have said that this colour suits me, and that I "light up" whenever I'm complimented (pun not intended). A few months later and I have a full head of neon green hair and feel uniquely amazing every day. Just waiting for my sponsorship deal from Stabilo 😂
The dye has superb staying power over pre-lightened hair, following cold washes with paraben/sulfate free shampoo. It fades to a pastel green but vibrancy is my thing so that doesn't last long 🤣 Highly recommend.
I got this on a bit of a whim, and I'm so glad I did! It's super soft! It's thin enough to be worn in a heatwave but easy to add layers to for cooler weather too, and it's a really flattering shape!
I bought this dress for a wedding where I was a bridesmaid and could choose my own dress.
It is absolutely gorgeous.
The fabric is lovely and it’s very well made. I love all the details.
It looks and feels expensive without breaking the bank.
A piece I think I will have forever. 🖤 Thank you.
Simply classic. It's rather short (So you can elongate it with a lacey petticoat/slip skirt underneath), but it's so comfortable. I'm amazed at how cozy it is. It floofs out just the right way and fits to your shape so stunningly. Honestly I wouldn't sleep on this one! It's perfect for those fellow floofy dress lovers!
So unique~! I love how this has become my most "colourful" dress in my wardrobe. The dress is quite mini and I would recommend wearing with a petticoat/leggins underneath.. But it's so versatile. I've mixed a corset over the top, waist belts, jackets.. all sorts and it takes customizing so well. The back is also has a ribbon to "Tighten" it up back there if you wanted more shape.. It doesn't have boneing however so be aware of not over tightening. It also fastens with a invisible side zip.
So beautiful. The fabric is abit stiffer than I anticipated but honestly its been so lovely to wear this summer. I love the bow front that also hangs elegantly along the front.
I am 5''3 and I find the length not too long. The cutouts in the lace is so good for ventilation too. It's honestly been a gamer changer for me this summer to keep cool but also still feelin my gothic self~
