Reviews mention

  • Buttery-soft fabric comfort
  • Flattering, sculpting silhouettes
  • Inclusive shade range
  • Versatile, polished basics
  • Inconsistent sizing accuracy
  • Rolling-waist shapewear issue
  • Thin, sheer fabric concerns
  • Pilling-prone cozy knit

SKIMS earns largely positive reviews for comfort, flattering fits, inclusive shades and sizes, and standout staples like the Fits Everybody bras, bodysuits, underwear, and Soft Lounge pieces—so yes, the brand works for many shoppers. Reviews also flag real drawbacks: inconsistent sizing, rolling shapewear, thin or easily pilling fabrics (notably Cozy and some cotton/mesh), and operational pain points like paid returns and low stock.

  • I have this in about 6-7 colors. This is a definite staple to my outfits from summer through winter. I truly think I cannot live without this in my wardrobe and look forward to getting all of the rest of the colors!

  • super soft bralette, stretchy yet supportive, holds its shape and lays nicely on the skin. washes well and affordable price for the quality. am looking forward to trying many more products in the line!

  • I was incredibly skeptical of this brand but I do have to admit that the bra that I have is not only comfortable but also surprisingly stretchy and supportive. Honestly I think the price point for the bra is fair as well.

  • The jacket color is really cute and I love the frosty blue. The fit is nice and I have other north face jackets and it is truly just like any of my other north face jackets. The only thing is that it literally just says skims and now they can up charge on a normal north face. It’s definitely cute but not worth the money just to say Skims.

  • SKIMS Doesn't Fit Everybody T-Shirt Bra...Unfortunately, this was a frustrating experience primarily due to sizing. SKIMS’ online bra sizing guide is completely off. I ordered multiple sizes based on the sizing chart and other customer reviews, but none fit properly. Because the sizing guidance is inaccurate, I’m now responsible for paying a return fee, which feels especially disappointing given that the issue wasn’t personal preference—it was incorrect sizing information. Buyer beware: unless you already know precisely how SKIMS bras fit your body, ordering online can be a hassle (and costly). The quality of the bra itself seems decent, and the packaging was thoughtful, and shipping was fast. However, I can’t fairly assess comfort or wearability because the fit was so off that wearing it wasn’t an option. I would not recommend ordering this bra online unless you’ve been professionally fitted in-store or already know your SKIMS size. With accurate sizing, the experience might be better—but based on this purchase, the risk and return penalties outweigh the convenience.

  • I've had these for over a year, and I really like them. They fit true to size, while some of the other bottoms I've tried from them fit small. These are really soft, but they are pilling. I would buy them again on sale, but I don't know if they're worth the full price.

  • This skims bra is my new go to. I love how soft it is, the straps don’t fall down, and the cups don’t move around/get scrunched up. I will be getting it in multiple colors! Highly recommend for smaller boobs, I can’t speak much to the support.

  • OK so I bought a bunch of Skims bras when I started having to go into the office again (lol) I was a bralette wearer until I found the fits everybody t shirt bra.. now I believe in underwire again and wear these everyday. Very comfortable, very flattering. Sizing is a bit strange (runs small?) and took a few exchanges to find the right fit. Mine have started to pill a bit due to wear but I think this is normal? Of course I have started exploring other styles I.e. the teardrop pushup and that thing is CRAZY I feel like I'm wearing my first bombshell in high school again! Am I interested in the butt shaping underwear? For sure maybe that is next. Sorry to everyone but this brand is worth the hype, we all (reluctantly) say thank u Kim

  • I love this long sleeve. I need to get more colors to keep in my wardrobe. Its form fitting and comfortable!! I have it black and grey and the sizing is consistent. I would just say that it fits snug so size up if you'd like it not too tight.

  • Bandeau is great for layering under sheer tops and a classic piece in my closet. It’s super comfortable like all the SKIMS products and has held up very well quality wise. Would recommend for friends and family.

  • I've now made 2 big purchases from SKIMS and can say that I am a big fan. I am currently wearing their fleece pants and am so so cozy. I am probably the biggest fan of their long sleeve t-shirts. I made a purchase about a year ago and the shirts have lost some elastic and are more suited for sleep use, but for me the softness is top priority and they never miss. Their bodysuit/bodyshaping stuff isn't comfy at all, but is it supposed to be? I have some tanks too and really love all their stuff - incredibly soft, pretty good value for money, and in this clothing market the quality is competitive.

  • Retired all the others! As a 54 year old mom of four adult children, I have put myself first in the undies drawer! The Fits Everybody line is just perfect. I love the cheeky brief and thong. All the old undies have been tossed, I’m a Skims girl. Give them a try, you won’t regret it!

  • It holds everything in nicely and is pretty comfortable. It's a bit overpriced for the quality of the fabric. Mine ripped pretty easily. The color shade range is also pretty diverse which I appreciate.

  • I’m extremely disappointed with SKIMS. What used to be one of my favorite brands has completely gone downhill in both product quality and customer service. The material is not what it used to be, there has clearly been a change, whether in sourcing or manufacturing, because these items do not hold up. I’ve had multiple bras come apart at the seams after minimal wear. This is not a one-off defect; it’s a pattern across more than one order. For the price point, this is completely unacceptable. What’s even worse is the customer service. I have reached out multiple times, provided photos more than once, and instead of taking accountability or offering a real solution, I’ve been met with repetitive, unhelpful responses asking for the same information over and over again. There is no ownership, no urgency, and no real effort to resolve the issue. To make matters worse, they have now completely stopped responding. This is not the first time either, I’ve had past inquiries on separate issues where they simply never replied at all. That shows a clear pattern of ignoring customers rather than supporting them. At this point, it’s not just about a refund, it’s about a noticeable decline in quality and a complete lack of accountability. If materials have changed or vendors have shifted, customers deserve transparency. Ignoring repeat issues and failing to respond is unacceptable and unprofessional. I can no longer recommend this brand. Between the failing product quality, being ignored as a customer, and the frustrating, ineffective support, this has been a complete letdown.

  • I bought a Skims Ultimate Push up Bra in May this year in Brown Thomas. I really like to wear it because the effects it gives me. Until now when I want to wear it in the morning I realized that the quality is so bad. The strip and the line fabric was taken out of the pad. That was so annoyed.

  • Their products feel rich and high quality, but I’ve found their underwear just don’t last. The pill or are too thin. Their bras are wonderful. I feel similarly to Good American that if they stuck to what they’re known for (undergarments in Skims case) they would be more successful and higher quality. Going into their clothing and all that is just too much and devalues the brand in my opinion.

  • The SKIMS socks are the quiet luxury my feet didn’t know they needed. They’re soft. They’re snug. They don’t do that annoying slide-down-your-heel thing halfway through the day. Are they just socks? Technically, yes. Are they worth the splurge? Also, yes. If you are looking for good quality basics I think you can't go wrong with SKIMS.

  • I've waited longer for a men's collection than I really care to admit and was so excited when it finally got announced! Some thoughts: - The seam of the cotton boxer briefs started ripping after three washes (customer service refunded me, but still disappointed in the quality) - The pouch on the cotton is more restrictive and thicker than I anticipated - The stretch boxer briefs are more comfortable with a bigger pouch and thinner fabric - The cuts of the shirts are just not there yet - the short sleeve t-shirt was way too short and my husband bought a long sleeve but it was a really wide, short cut, and the arms were quite short. In the end, two of the six items were returned and one was refunded because it was already falling apart :/ I had higher hopes but now I have $100 credit to spend, so I guess I will be back! Let's just hope they put a little more into R&D before rushing future collections to market

  • I have been a huge fan of skims for ages now. As someone who was overweight and never felt confident or self love for myself, I was put on ozempic since I became diabetic. Now I’m lost over 80 pounds and I can wear my skims with all the self love and self confidence I deserve

  • SKIMS has been mostly a hit for me. The fits are flattering, the styles are thoughtfully designed, and most pieces have held up well. That said, anything in the mesh fabric has been a clear miss. I completely ruined several of the tanga high-cut briefs because the mesh elastic literally melted and frayed in the dryer. Maybe they weren’t meant to be machine-dried, but it wasn’t obvious enough to prevent the damage. It’s a bummer because the cut and feel were great otherwise. Overall, I still like the brand, but I’m a lot more selective with the fabrics now.
