Influencers attend \u2018tone deaf\u2019 factory tour of Shein amidst backlash Instagram: danidmc \/ SheinShein has responded to allegations questioning the company\u2019s ethics by inviting influencers on a factory tour. But instead of clearing the company\u2019s name, their response was met with more backlash. Online fast fashion brand Shein is well-known for selling trendy clothes at rather cheap prices. But the brand has since been called out as unethical. Shein has faced many serious allegations over the years; from abusive working conditions to using hazardous materials. There are many reasons why buyers are choosing not to support the company anymore. In an attempt to put these allegations to rest, however, Shein recently invited influencers to a factory tour \u2014 only for it to catastrophically backfire. Influencer Dani, who goes by \u2018danidmc\u2019 on Instagram, was one of Shein\u2019s attendees and originally spoke highly of the tour. Dani shared videos to TikTok of her getting ready and styling herself in Shein clothes, expressing her excitement over the tour. She continued to support the brand, claiming the factory presented no ethical issues. Despite many viewers calling out the problematic company and questioning Dani\u2019s assessment, the influencer initially doubled down on her claims. \u201cYou would have done the exact same thing as me,\u201d Dani said in a now-deleted video, defending her choice to attend the tour. But with the backlash mounting, Dani has now revoked her previous support for Shein and announced she \u201cterminated\u201d her relationship with the company. \u201cI led us to the wrong path and I\u2019m very aware of that now,\u201d Dani told viewers in an Instagram post. \u201cI am ready to take accountability and look at myself and look at my role in my industry.\u201d Many fans have questioned the sincerity of Dani\u2019s apology, while others are determined to ensure Shein remains in the spotlight for its controversial ethics.
