There have been reports of alleged forced labor abuses, human rights violations and potentially hazardous materials in clothing at Shein. The fast-fashion giant's attempt to clear up negative reports about its factories resulted in more skepticism.

As a result, viewers were skeptical of the influencers’ videos and believed the creators were presented with a sanitized version of the actual conditions at Shein.

“Upon interviewing the workers, a lot of them were confused and taken aback by the child labor questions and the lead in the clothing questions because they basically said, ‘Our kids want to be on social media just like y’all,’” Sudduth said in her TikTok. “They’re not working in factories and our clothing goes through rigorous testing before production.”

“To be honest, a lot of these employees are just people who are trying to make a decent living,” Butler said in her Reel. “Feigning ignorance about this company is not a good look. You’re being called out across the internet,” one commenter wrote on one of Carbonari’s Instagram posts. “There’s no way you didn’t know that this company is bad… you’d have to be living under a rock.”

Carbonari is the only one that has responded publicly on social media, although her TikToks addressing the backlash have been deleted.In a now-deleted TikTok, Carbonari said she received hateful comments for attending the trip. She accused critics of being xenophobic and misunderstanding China.
