@Citrine1   I've placed three orders over two years. The first was pj's. OK but a little small because I hadn't really figured out their measuring system yet. QVC measurements tell you that something is designed to fit XX inches beyond body measurements. That helps. Shein doesn't do that and I overestimated.

 

The second was blouses and some non-clothing items. The kitchen stuff I can buy here. The blouses were great. I have a hard time getting non-stretch blouses that fit right. These did and with a wide selection.

 

The last order was a few blouses. All were good.

 

I wouldn't try shoes because of the ship weight. I'll try pants if I'm tempted, but I do OK buying bottoms in the USA.

From what I know about Shein I could never buy from them nor wear any piece of clothing of theirs on my body. Exploitation and abuse of children to make cheap, disposable clothing.  Nothing fascinating about that.

PASS. Their clothing looks like JUNK -  the fabric looks CHEAP - POOR quality.

I have not purchased froom them so I can't comment on the quality but appreciate input from those who have.  I don't understand how you can comment on quality from a picture.  

 

I do understand not purchasing because the info we have access to about their labor practices and how the employees may include children.  I haven't purchased and don't plan to.

Like someone above said, it is no different than buying from Walmart, Target, or A. Even a lot of the materials used on clothing here at QVC is the same that these companies use.

 

 

That being said, I had never shopped with Shein. My kids had in the past and several people I work with shop there all the time and love them. A couple of weeks ago I saw an outfit on TikTok  and fell in love. It was from Shein and I placed an order for it. It came within four business days and they sent me a text message every step of the way. I also accidently ordered two of the same thing and as soon as I caught my error I was able to cancel the second item and my refund was processed right away. 

 

I wore the outfit out to dinner on Mother’s Day and I had four people stop me and tell me how much they loved my outfit. I washed the outfit and it washed beautifully and so say what you want about Shein I am happy with my purchases and the whole outfit cost less than $40.00 for a three-piece outfit and free shipping.
