20 Amazing International Shopping Sites That Ship to The United States
The downside of frequenting stateside retail favorites like H&M, Forever 21, and Zara is that you run the risk of wearing the exact same thing as everyone else in America—but you can sidestep that risk and curate a completely unique look by shopping European clothing brands and other international retailers.
Because the best overseas shops are foreign to us—literally—it can be hard to figure out which places are great to check out. For that reason, we’ve rounded up some of our favorite international clothing brands and stores that can help make your wardrobe that much more original. From the U.K. to Asia, these sites offer affordable, on-trend pieces and—the best part—they all ship directly to the U.S. Get ready for some serious impulse buys.
Click through the gallery to start shopping, and let us know which site’s your favorite.
