NEWS SUMMARY

Online, ultra fast-fashion retailer Shein has announced that it is going to open its first permanent physical stores next month. The shops will be located in several French cities. Shein said that they chose France because it’s an “influential global fashion market”. The idea has drawn criticism from many French people. 

Shein, founded in China in 2008, produces low-cost clothes following the latest trends. The company has faced criticism for its environmental impact and the low quality of its products.
