Opening Day of Shein First Physical Store at BHV - Paris

Atmosphere at the stall of Asian e-commerce giant Shein at the Bazar de l'Hotel de Ville (BHV) department store in Paris on November 5, 2025, on the opening day of its first physical store at BHV in Paris. Asian e-commerce giant Shein, a Singapore-based company that was originally founded in China. This store opening is very controversial. Shein has committed to "fully cooperate" with the French judicial authorities while investigations were launched after the French anti-fraud unit reported that she was selling sexual dolls similar to children, and said that he was ready to disclose the names of the people who bought them..
