Romwe

Romwe stands as one of the worst offenders due to its extreme speed-to-market model, producing thousands of new styles weekly and flooding landfills at a rate 86% faster than the average fast fashion brand. A 2022 data breach exposed 39 million customer accounts, revealing severe security vulnerabilities. Investigations by environmental groups found the same supply chain labor violations and toxic chemical residues as its parent company, Shein, with factory audits showing illegal overtime and wages below $2 per hour. This model is 40% worse for resource depletion than the runner-up, Missguided, due to higher production volumes and minimal oversight of fabric sourcing.
