#fuck shein

i love weird shirts but what the fuck is that

it's not punk to buy from shein btw

It's really aggravating when people are like "what's an ethical substitute for shein/temu?" and then expect the places/website they're given to have the exact same prices. Like, the reason temu/shein prices are so low is because they exploit their workers. You can't pay your workers a livable wage and have prices that low. not to mention the difference in quality, as well as (was it temu or shein?) stealing smaller designers designs. Plus how bad fast fashion is for the environment. People just need to stop expecting to be able to buy like, 10 different clothing items for less than a 100 dollars.

last thing i reblogged reminds me:

today my sister was talking about shein, and putting aside the mental gymnastics she puts herself through to be able to sleep at night buying that stuff and the conversation about that part

i said even if you put that aside, it’s cheap garbage that won’t last

to which she stood up and gestured to her shirt (which honestly did look super cheap and flimsy), and she just says, “Shein.”

and I’m (instantly, without a pause) like, “She in a cheap shirt.”

and she was offended but my dad laughed

I see a cute sweater. I look for where to buy. It is from Shein. I sadly close the tab. (Or I try to find who they copied who usually makes better quality clothes that are worth the money and won't immediately fall apart)

I wish there was like. A database where you could find and support the original artists that shein has stolen from.

I'm so sick of seeing Shein clothes on Vinted. The site is SATURATED like most of the clothes I see on there now are Shein. I refuse to buy Shein clothes, even second hand, and it leaves a bad taste in my mouth when I see a cute shirt on my funky sustainable second hand site and then look down and see its Shein. I can't even explain the disgust. So done with this.

shein should just use AI to make their products, the complete lack of individuality and respect for art would be so on brand for them

like come on, if you're gonna be a piece of shit dont be a pussy about it, put your chest into that shit.

[phin-and-frob]

Wow so innovative! Finally a way to visualize the human impact of my impulse purchases! Thanks SHEIN 🥰!!

[zemfruit]

I see cool stuff in second hand shops

It's shein

I cry

[dlawlorinsp]

Ok but this is amazing especially given how many indie creators they’ve ripped off and I’m just here like YESSS YEEEEEEEESSSSSS

As fast fashion's waste pollutes Africa's environment, designers in Ghana are finding a solution

Obroni Wawu is the phrase that in the local Akan language means "dead white man's clothes." - which is an aesthetic we need here in the west and is adjacent to thrift bohemian tech goth (my aesthetic) lol
