Online fashion retailer Missguided.co.uk has announced record sales for December 2012 with a sales surge of 25 per cent on the month, with sales also up 270 per cent on December 2011.

Established in 2009, the e-tailer recorded an average 20 per cent month on month growth rate in 2012 with December marking its best month to date.

“Strengthening our product offering, through both our buying and new in-house design team and to developing the Missguided brand identity - be it on the site itself, social media platforms or through our talked-about creative campaigns - has driven sales to record highs.”
