Is Khloé’s latest gig a fashion faux pas?
On Wednesday, Khloé Kardashian announced her partnership with Shein, the Chinese retailer whose affordable clothes are beloved by Gen-Zand ubiquitous on TikTok.
The Good American co-founder will serve as a judge for the brand’s Shein X 100K Challenge, a new design competition, alongside celebrity stylist Law Roach, designer Christian Siriano, former J.Crew exec Jenna Lyons and InStyle style director Laurel Pantin.
Emerging designers will get a chance to win a prize of $100,000, along with a chance to be featured in Shein’s Fall/Winter 2021 virtual fashion showcase.
But like many fast fashion retailers, Shein — which adds nearly 1,000 new items to its inventory daily, with most costing less than $10 — has been accused of copying the work of smaller designers and artists.
