SKIMS: Kim Kardashian's shapewear and lifestyle brand that revolutionized the industry

Step into the world of SKIMS, the brand created by Kim Kardashian in 2019 that redefined the standards of shapewear, lingerie and premium loungewear. With a valuation exceeding $4 billion in 2023, SKIMS has become one of the most influential fashion brands in the world, worn by global celebrities and adopted by all body types. MTHOR Shop curates the brand's most sought-after pieces for you: authentic products, shipped sealed and delivered worldwide.

The story of a revolution: Kim K, Jens and Emma Grede, 2019

The SKIMS story begins in September 2019. Kim Kardashian, frustrated by the lack of shapewear options adapted to all skin tones and body types, partnered with Jens and Emma Grede (founders of Frame, Khloe's Good American) to create her own brand. The launch exceeded all expectations: $2 million in sales within minutes, the site crashed, and a wait of several months for the products.

From 2019 to today, SKIMS has expanded far beyond shapewear: Cotton Series (premium cotton underwear), Soft Lounge (iconic loungewear adopted by all of Hollywood), Fits Everybody (the signature stretch series), Swim (swimsuits), Sleep, and even a Mens line launched in 2023. Strategic collabs with the NBA, USA Olympics Paris 2024, Dolce & Gabbana and Fendi have propelled the brand into fashion's stratosphere. SKIMS is today valued at over $4 billion and worn by the entire celebrity planet (Beyoncé, Rihanna, Kendall Jenner, Kylie Jenner, Hailey Bieber, etc.).

A textile innovation: why is SKIMS different?

SKIMS' success rests on three technical innovations. First, exclusive fabrics developed by the brand: the famous "Soft Lounge" (viscose/spandex blend ultra-soft that perfectly hugs curves), "Fits Everybody" (stretch textile available in over 12 sizes), and "Cotton Rib" (premium ribbed cotton). Then, inclusive diversity: 9 neutral shades (Sand, Clay, Sienna, Cocoa, etc.) designed to match all skin tones, and sizes ranging from XXS to 5XL. Finally, sculpting cuts that combine comfort and flattering silhouette without the rigidity of traditional shapewear.

Three clear benefits: long-lasting comfort without uncomfortable compression, sculpted silhouette that flatters all body types, and versatile style from everyday to red carpet.

FAQ — SKIMS at MTHOR

How do you verify the authenticity of a SKIMS piece?

Our team of experts checks every piece against a rigorous grid: presence of the official sewn SKIMS tag, composition label (exact viscose/spandex blend for Soft Lounge, or other compositions per line), textile quality and characteristic stretch, stitching finish, and original SKIMS premium packaging. We use UV lamp and microscope for collab drops. Every order is sealed before shipping. See the full process.

What size should I choose for SKIMS pieces?

SKIMS generally fits true to US measurements, but it's more subtle by line: Fits Everybody is very stretchy (same size covers multiple body types), Soft Lounge fits true to size, the Sculpt shapewear runs small (size up for comfort, or stay your size for sculpt effect). Don't hesitate to contact our customer service for model-specific advice.

What packaging comes with my order?

You receive the piece in the original SKIMS packaging (recyclable beige bag signed SKIMS), with the cardboard tag attached, the composition and provenance label. For collab drops (NBA, Olympics, Fendi), the special drop packaging is kept intact.

What is the delivery time?

We ship worldwide, with home delivery against signature within 2 to 8 days. You benefit from real-time tracking by email and WhatsApp, regardless of your destination.

Will I have to pay customs fees?

No, no customs fees are charged to you. MTHOR covers all customs fees and taxes, regardless of your destination worldwide. The price displayed on the website is the final price you pay: no nasty surprises on delivery.

Can I return my piece if it doesn't suit me?

Yes. You have 14 days after receipt to return your piece, provided it's in its original condition (never worn, tag attached, seal not removed). Refunds are processed within 24h of receiving the return. Hygiene note: for sanitary reasons, underwear and swimsuits are not returnable once opened.
