Australia’s City Chic prepares for US tariff surge with strategic move
City Chic Collective has fast-tracked US shipments of its summer 2025 and winter 2026 ranges to avoid steep new tariffs, as over 90 per cent of its products are sourced from China. The company has paused further US imports, cut marketing spend, and expects lower FY26 US sales. It may exit the US market at minimal cost if tariffs remain commercially unviable.
