Ever since the pandemic, digital channels became more than a convenience — they became a necessity.

And with more people shopping online, it was a good time for many online fashion brands. Take, for instance, fashion e-tailer giant, Shein. As one of the few online retailers that we all know and love, Shein has now expanded its offerings through collaborations with young designers.

Back in January 2021, Shein expanded its successful Designer Incubator Programme with the launch of Shein X in North America.

But with the overwhelming response, the brand sought to expand its monthly collabs with up-and-coming designers from all over the world. But what is it all about? Well, the programme supports independent designers, giving them a unique opportunity to showcase their brands on a global stage.
