The Best Skims Shapewear Picks in 2023

Say what you will about Kim Kardashian, but when it comes to shapewear, she knows what she’s doing – as evidenced by her brand dedicated to creating seamless silhouettes, Skims.

Chances are you’ve seen the brand’s Soft Lounge Long Slip Dress making splashes on your Tiktok FYP, and it’s for good reason.

Kardashian launched the brand in 2019 after spotting a gap in the market for shapewear solutions. The reality TV star was left frustrated when trying on products from other brands, which had visible seams in the front and back.

She doesn’t do anything by halves, so in her mission to create the world’s best shapewear, she searched low and high for the best fabrics (settling on developing her own ‘exclusive’ material) and factories.

“I was extremely specific and it took a really long time to find a factory that can make seamless shapewear,” she told The Cut.

Even today, Kardashian does every single fitting – and if it’s good enough for her, it’s good enough for us!

Forbes estimates that her wealth increased by a staggering $600 million after launching the brand – Skims’ first collection with Fendi made a staggering $1million in one minute! – and there are a selection of products that always sell out first.

At Wear Next, we acknowledge that every body is beautiful just the way it is, and there’s certainly no need to shape, smooth, minimize, or constrict it. However we also understand wanting to feel your best, and shapewear can undoubtedly offer a confidence boost.

We wholeheartedly support the idea of people feeling their most confident and empowered selves, so here, we’re sharing the best shapewear you can get from Skims.

What size should I get in Skims?

If you’re wondering what size to get in Skims, it’s best to stick to your usual size. The products tend to be true to size (although when they arrive, you might be alarmed at how small they appear!), but it’s worth checking out the Size Guide online.

Even though they might look tiny, these babies are great for wearing under snug clothes like leggings because they’re seamless. And if you’re stuck between sizes, don’t sweat it, just go for the smaller one since there’s plenty of stretch.
