The tariffs would impact one-third of all goods shipped into the US — including clothing, footwear and beauty products. By Monday, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum negotiated a deal to delay the tariffs by one month while Mexico and the US hashed out a plan for heightened border security.

Shortly after, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said that Canada had reached a similar agreement to pause tariffs for one month. A deal with China has yet to be announced. Even as two of the three tariffs will hang in the balance, the fashion and beauty industries, both in the US and outside of it, are bracing for impact, with consumers likely to bear at least some of the brunt.

US customers of Canadian retailers like Ssense and Aritzia were already questioning how the changes would impact their orders; thanks to the de minimis loophole closure, they could end up paying more in taxes. Many brands and retailers began preparing for the tariffs when they were first proposed last year, but how prepared are they?

Trump has indicated that his focus is on revitalising domestic manufacturing rather than targeting consumer products, notes Julia Hughes, president of the United States Fashion Industry Association. Hughes fears that continued uncertainty and tension could escalate into a full-blown global trade war. Reshoring may seem like a promising solution to the potential for higher tariffs on popular sourcing nations, but domestic manufacturing partnerships remain elusive for many smaller firms.

Large brands and international manufacturers have been quietly acquiring factories and mills in the US, Canada and Mexico for years, and this behaviour is only escalating, says Alice James, founder of AJG Fashion Consulting, a boutique agency that helps apparel brands manage the product-development lifecycle. Smaller brands are struggling to secure domestic production because their lower volumes make them less attractive partners, she explains.
