Shein accused of RICO violations in new lawsuit
  + stars: | 2023-07-14 | by ( Ellie Stevens | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +2 min
CNN —Three graphic designers are suing Chinese fast-fashion giant Shein over what they allege is “egregious” copyright infringement and racketeering. In the lawsuit, which was filed in a California federal court Tuesday, the designers allege Shein produced and sold exact copies of their designs. Rather, there is a mysterious tech genius, Xu Yangtian aka Chris Xu,” the suit claims. According to their “About us” page, Shein says the company only produces 100 to 200 pieces of each model at launch. Those small quantities are intentional, the suit alleges: That way, before making more pieces, Shein can see if anyone complains about a stolen design.

Fast fashion retailer Shein was accused in a federal lawsuit of directly copying designers' work. The lawsuit also accuses Shein of racketeering and claiming copyright infringement is central to the business model. The suit went on to allege that Shein's practice of using a conglomeration to facilitate the copyright infringement amounts to racketeering. They also offered her $500, an offer that the lawsuit claimed was consistent with other designers' experiences. It's hardly the first time that Shein has faced legal action related to allegations of copyright infringement.
