Shein’s Purchase of Everlane Faces US National Security Review

US authorities are conducting a national security review of Shein Global Holdings Ltd.’s acquisition of American clothing retailer Everlane. This review follows Shein's request for approval and adds to the increasing regulatory hurdles the China-founded fast-fashion giant faces in a critical market. The situation underscores rising US-China tensions, which are currently impacting regulatory landscapes and market strategies.
