Sustainable Luxury: The Rise of Clothing Rental

It’s 2019, and the internet is overflowing with videos of satisfied customers showing off their Shein hauls. But it’s not all smooth sailing when allegations go viral that the company steals from independent designers.

And in the hands of new leadership, Forever 21 tries to start anew in a rapidly changing fashion landscape.
