Three designers allege that Shein 'sold exact copies of their creative work,' violating their copyrights and engaging in racketeering.
Shein is a popular online destination for social influencers and shoppers to stock up on trendy yet affordable clothing, but a new alleges that the site maintains its edge by engaging in"egregious" copyright infringement that constitutes racketeering.
"Shein has grown rich by committing individual infringements over and over again, as part of a long and continuous pattern of racketeering, which shows no sign of abating," the suit alleges. Shein wrote back with an offer of $500."Shein made its offer as if it were a mom-and-pop operation rather than one of the richest enterprises in the world," the suit alleges.
The two other designers, Jay Baron of Burbank, California, and Larissa Blintz of Los Angeles, also alleged their designs were exactly copied by Shein. Baron created artwork called"Trying My Best," which was allegedly copied and sold by Shein, while Martinez'"Orange Daisies" clothing was also allegedly copied.
