Shein is an ultra-fast-fashion e-commerce platform founded in Nanjing and now headquartered in Singapore, selling womenswear, menswear, kidswear, beauty and homeware, most of it priced under $30. An on-demand model with Guangzhou-area suppliers pushes thousands of new styles online daily. Revenue reached $41.8 billion in 2025, though the company posted a first-quarter 2026 net loss after the US ended de minimis duty relief and the EU added fees on low-value parcels. Shein has filed for a Hong Kong IPO and reportedly agreed to buy Everlane.

Does Shein run big or small?
Shein runs small. Size up one (sometimes two for outerwear or if you're above a US L) and always check the per-item measurement table rather than the letter size. Shoppers very consistently report that Shein garments follow Asian-market sizing and run at least one size smaller than US/EU labels, with noticeable inconsistency in fit and quality from item to item because each style comes from a different supplier.
