Clothing company Shein just debuted its first retail pop-up in Illinois at Woodfield Mall in Schaumburg. From December 15-17, 2023 fashionistas were offered racks of clothing at 5 Woodfield Mall from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. each day. Located next to Eddie Bauer by the Macy's entrance in the northwest suburb, this was possibly a test drive on a permanent storefront.
This was a special limited opportunity across the country for customers to not have to wait for items to arrive in the mail. The prices were the same as online and not raised for the upscale venue. Lines of people formed outside the space to snatch up bargains before they were gone.
There were separate men and women's sections along with plenty for the non-binary shopper as well.
