In the New York Times, an article published today called “The People’s Republic of Shien” spoke about how many people still support Shein. After all the backlash Shien has been facing for “violating labor laws” (this appears to me the highest claim for their backlash). Shien still manages to keep some of its customers.
Shopping lovers love Shein for its affordability, variety, and resemblance to fashionable trends. Ann Taylor (fashion influencer) addressed her view on this issue and stated that she can’t stand against Shein if there is nothing to back up the claims.
Shein gets a lot of publicity because of the famous ‘hauls’ people watch all over youtube and Tik Tok. Shein has grown massively (passing Amazon as the most downloaded shopping app). It has also become the leader of the “Gen Z- favored brands.” Shein has worked on increasing the quality of their clothing and plans to initiate a social media campaign giving an ‘inside look’ at labor, sustainability, and product safety to prove that the claims are false.
