Shein Strikes Deal With Forever 21

Shein and Forever 21 may soon be fast-fashion friends. The two rivals have entered into a partnership that paves the way for the Asian e-commerce powerhouse to sell Forever 21 dresses, jeans and accessories on its site. Down the line, Shein shops could operate inside Forever 21 stores, the companies said. The arrangement marks the next step in Shein’s evolution beyond selling apparel at rock-bottom prices produced in small batches. Shein has become one of the largest U.S. fast-fashion retailers by market share, but to grow further it wants to offer its customers goods beyond what it makes itself.
