EU and Italy Impose New Fast-Fashion Levies Amid Shifting 2025 Trends

#Rome, #Italy
Consumers embrace diverse styles and secondhand luxury as the EU and Italy introduce new levies on low-value imports to regulate fast-fashion giants like Shein and Temu.The Italian Senate passed the 2026 Budget Act while the broader European market approved a 3-euro fee on extra-EU parcels to level the playing field for local retailers.These market shifts follow the death of fashion icon Jacqueline de Ribes and a Paris court decision rejecting a government attempt to block Shein operations within France.
