Chinese e-commerce giant Shein is well-known on apps like TikTok and Instagram among Generation Z shoppers, for offering throwaway fashion at bargain-basement prices.

The fast-fashion brand has been heralded as a disruptor for its online-only model. But critics say the brand’s success comes at a steep price and criticize Shein for its environmental and labour practices.
