An exclusive Skims x The North Face collaboration is all set to launch on December 10, 2024, at 9 AM ET. This limited-edition collection will be available online for purchase at SKIMS.com and in Skims stores.
This collection reimagines The North Face’s loved archival styles with Skims’ body-fitting silhouettes and signature neutral color palette. Products included in the collaborative collection range from outerwear and apparel to baselayers and other accessories.
Skims x The North Face: the collaboration explored
Skims was co-founded by Kim Kardashian, Emma Grede, and Jens Grede in 2019. It is an American shapewear and clothing brand. Its shapewear and loungewear are loved among fans. Skims has previously collaborated with brands like Fendi, Dolce & Gabbana, and Swarovski.
On the other hand, The North Face is a brand of outdoor clothing, footwear, and related equipment, which was founded in 1968. The brand's durable outerwear designs are popular among athletes and adventurers. It is now a part of VF Corporation.
With this Skims x The North Face partnership, Skims expands itself into winterwear fashion. Below is what the brand had to say to promote this latest collaboration:
"WHERE WINTER WEAR HAS NEVER GONE BEFORE"
"The North Face’s performance fabrics meet SKIMS signature fit and colors"
The limited-edition Skims x The North Face lineup features 12 styles in four tonal colorways: ochre, sienna, cocoa, and onyx. It includes fashion items, which are designed to suit the atmosphere of both the mountains and casual settings. The collection's outerwear includes a reimagined down jacket and a fleece jacket. The design of the jackets is inspired by pieces from Kim Kardashian’s personal North Face archive.
A one-piece suit, which was originally designed for extreme mountaineering, has been adapted for lifestyle wear. A waterproof shell pant is also featured. Skims' signature Lycra Adaptiv and the beloved DotKnit fabrics are parts of the materials that have been used in the collection. These materials offer flexibility and moisture management.
For accessories, beanies, gloves, and insulated mules will reportedly be featured in the Skims x The North Face lineup. Sizes of the products range from XXS to 3X, with prices spanning from $60 to $1,200.
The launch campaign is shot by renowned photographers Vanessa Beecroft and Donna Trope. It showcases the collection against the backdrop of snow-covered Chilean mountains. Kim Kardashian took to Instagram to share the campaign visuals. Her post is captioned:
