Actress and entrepreneur Kim Kardashian’s shapewear brand, Skims, has announced an exclusive collaboration with the renowned luxury fashion house Dolce & Gabbana, unveiling the limited-edition collection “Dolce & Gabbana x Skims.” This partnership aims to redefine the relationship between comfort and style, bridging a long-standing divide and setting a new benchmark in the luxury fashion market.
To celebrate this collaboration, a luxurious visual campaign was created featuring Kim Kardashian and her sister, Kourtney Kardashian Barker. Directed by visual artists Nadia Lee Cohen and Donna Trope, the campaign includes stunning images and videos that evoke the essence of Italian aesthetics. These visuals beautifully capture an idyllic dreamlike daily life, reflecting Dolce & Gabbana’s distinctive design philosophy while emphasizing the cultural heritage and sensuality shared by both brands.
The bond between Dolce & Gabbana and the Kardashian family is long-standing, with previous collaborations that have even made it to the runway. Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, co-founders of Dolce & Gabbana, commented, “We hold a genuine affection for Kim and her family. Our shared bond, rooted in a long-standing friendship, naturally inspired this new collaboration centred on inclusivity and body positivity – values close to our hearts and core to Skims.”
A Perfect Blend of Comfort and Luxury
The exclusive collection reimagines Skims’ classic pieces with Dolce & Gabbana’s iconic leopard print, seductive lingerie, silky sleepwear, and figure-flattering corsets. Priced between $48 and $698, the collection delivers “accessible luxury” to a wide audience. It also emphasizes inclusivity, offering sizes ranging from XXS to 4X and bras from 30A to 38DD, reflecting Skims’ unwavering commitment to size diversity.
This collection goes beyond blending comfort and style by introducing bold designs such as leopard prints and corsets while maintaining Skims’ signature comfort. Kim Kardashian remarked, “We’ve balanced Skims’ core values of comfort and fit with Dolce & Gabbana’s timeless luxury and high-fashion edge.”
The Dolce & Gabbana x Skims collection will be available starting November 19 through Skims’ official website, retail stores, select Dolce & Gabbana boutiques, and luxury retailers. This launch strategically aligns with the holiday shopping season, offering the perfect opportunity for fashion lovers to experience this groundbreaking collaboration.
This partnership not only bridges comfort and luxury but also redefines what modern fashion collaborations can achieve, creating a new standard that resonates with today’s diverse and discerning consumer base.
