“Dani DMC, who describes herself in the clip as an investigative journalist, added that the worker ‘was very surprised at all the rumors that have been spread in the U.S.,’ adding, ‘She told me about her family, her lifestyle, her commute, her hours.'”
As per The New York Times, after receiving backlash for defending Shein, Carbonari at first shared a since-deleted video in which she stood by her remarks.
However, on June 28, 2023, the content creator posted an apology video on Instagram in which she revealed that she “terminated” her “relationship with Shein upon returning from the trip.”
She continued: “I will no longer be aligned with them or work with them in any capacity now or ever in the future.
“I made a mistake, I made a huge mistake. I always try to lead with me, my younger self, and my community in mind, and I let us down. I did us wrong. I lead us to the wrong path, and I’m very aware of that now.
“I am ready to take accountability, and look at myself, and look at my role in my industry. And, I’m gonna take a couple weeks off, I’m gonna reevaluate, rebalance.
“And I’m going to come back, and I’m gonna be better, and I’m gonna be stronger. And I’m gonna continue the fight for us in a new way and continue to be an even better pioneer for the plus-size community.
“So, thank you, and I’ll see you then.”
