Online Retailer Shein Stops Selling ‘Buddhist Swastika’ Necklace Following Outrage
Fast fashion e-tailer Shein is best recognized for its cheap summer dresses, prolific clothing drops, YouTube videos, and now, a certain swastika necklace.
On Thursday, @HereForTheTea2, an Instagram account which dutifully chronicles influencer drama, posted a screenshot from the brand’s website. It appeared to show a “Metal Swastika Pendant Necklace” available for the small price of $2.50.
After the public call-out drew criticism on Instagram and Twitter, it only took Shein a few hours to scrub the product from its site.
