The most anticipated return of the year has arrived. And, ladies, it’s not Fawad Khan. Shein, a massively popular Chinese shopping app that was banned in the aftermath of the Galwan valley clashes in Ladakh last year, is making a two-day appearance on Amazon.
Shein’s ban spawned a slew of tragic memes and Instagram Reels. Many depicted women sobbing and men mocking them.
Now there is a real fear that desperate shoppers may crash Shein’s sub-platform next week, as vaccine-hunters did to CoWin.
And of course, meme-makers did not disappoint in their reaction to the ‘ghar wapsi’, as it were. However, it appears that fans will have to wait just a bit longer, now that petitions are being filed in high courts seeking to prohibit the re-entry of the brand.
BUT WHERE CAN YOU SHOP?
AMAZON PRIME !
YES !
Shein was the most popular iOS shopping app in 54 countries and the most popular Android shopping app in 13 countries. That alone should send the message that affordable fashion is not just for ‘desi influenzas.’ In fact, what’s the harm in being cautious about purchasing clothes that won’t cause your bank account to collapse? You can easily purchase your all-time favorite clothing and shop from the Amazon India app, but only if you have a prime membership!
