I worked UNDERCOVER in Shein’s factory village | The truth Behind fast fashion #shein

This is where your $5 clothes come from—— a secret village that powers Shein’s $66B fast-fashion empire. There are a lot of accusations against this Chinese e-commerce company — so I went there to find out the truth. #fashion #fastfashion #china #shein In “Shein Village”, factories run at extreme speed, relying on 300,000 migrant workers who deal with long hours, heavy pressure, and unpredictable workloads. ⚡ How Fast Does Shein Move? - 👗 A design can go from concept to production in as little as 72 hours - 🛍️ Shein releases anywhere from 2,000 to over 10,000 new styles daily 🧵 Different Jobs, Same Pressure Workers handle different stages of the process, often on staggered schedules: - 🧶 Sewing: the heart of production, usually end around midnight - 📦 Finishing: trimming threads, steaming, and prepping garments, often working as late as 1 to 2 AM ⚖️ No easy choice - 🏭 For factories, intense competition and razor-thin profits make piece-rate pay almost unavoidable. - 🧑‍🏭🪡🧵For many workers, the work can be demanding, but alternatives are limited. If factories shut down, many could face even greater uncertainty and fewer opportunities. 🌍 Fast fashion’s labor challenges are not unique to Shein. - They reflect a broader, systemic issue within the industry—where speed, low costs, and flexibility often come at the expense of long working hours and limited social protection. 💗 Do you want to support my work?
