Reviews mention

  • Buttery-soft fabric comfort
  • Inclusive shade range
  • Flattering sculpt bodysuits
  • Versatile lounge essentials
  • Inconsistent sizing fit
  • Thin, snag-prone materials
  • Rolling-waist shapewear
  • Seam durability issues

SKIMS delivers exceptionally soft, flattering basics and shapewear according to many reviews, but the brand is inconsistent: SKIMS wins praise for buttery “Fits Everybody” intimates, supportive sculpt bodysuits, inclusive shades/sizes, and ultra‑comfortable loungewear, while numerous reviews report unreliable sizing, rolling shapewear, thin or snag‑prone fabrics, seam failures, and poor customer support. Overall, SKIMS is good when you find the right fabric and fit, but buyers should expect trial‑and‑error and variable durability.

  • I've got their lounge pants and shorts - sooooo soft and comfortable. I've also washed them a ton of times and they really hold up in terms of material strength. Definitely my favorite lounge bottoms I own! Disclaimer - I like wearing things high waisted and the pants are a little long, so I roll the waistband over like 3 times to fit.

  • In terms of shapewear, I prefer other brands that support better. However, the underwear, loungewear and pajamas are incredibly soft. The sizing fits true to size.

  • I love the fabric but they are always too small on my butt. I don’t have a big butt either! I wish they fit better.

  • Shockingly wasn’t a huge fan! I ordered a few styles/fabrics of underwear and some clothing and ended up sending the clothing back. I do think going to a Nordstrom location and feeling the pieces before buying would help here, as I do think their are some nice fabrics. I kept all of the underwear to fully test and really only ended up loving one fabric.

  • My fits everybody bralette in black is so perfect that I want to replace every bra I own with it! I didn't think I was going to be such a huge fan but it's comfortable in every possible way, and looks good too.

  • I was debating between 3-4 stars, but the stuff that I love, I LOVE. Some items fit great and others do not at all - there's not much in between. I'm 5'10 / 150lbs / 34B and I don't think their wired bras fit me right, but their t-shirts and tanks are my bread and butter. Highly recommend for basics, but for bras, I'd go elsewhere.

  • If I could give the bodysuit a zero I would. For reference I am 5 ft 4 in and 120lbs. I bought a s/m and it was digging into me. My hips are wider than my waist and I have an athletic body type. It was so uncomfortable and left red marks when I took it off

  • I love my Skims! They are the most comfortable loungewear that I own and extremely adaptable. Will be buying more products.

  • I love Skims! Im not a small framed woman, I’m very curvy, so at first, the sizing really frustrated me. Some items are true to size but for certain undergarments, please size up! Customer service was great helping me exchange my items for a size that fit and I’ve been in love ever since. Only downside is that you are not credited back for shipping. Very versatile pieces.

  • I don’t think this stuff is horrible, but I don’t think it’s necessarily the end. I’ll be all that some of the Internet does. I have a few bralettes. They’ve held up regular washing in the machine and they aren’t pilling. They fit as advertised. I’m just really over the Kardashians. Sorry Kim.

  • I am Skims obsessed. I’ve been buying from Kim’s line for a few years now and I’ve completely reformed my underwear collection to now include only Fits Everybody Front Dip Thongs, Fits Everybody Boyshorts, Fits Everybody Scoop Bralettes, the Wireless Push Up Plunge Bra and the Crew Socks. Tips: F.E underwear for me has been true to size F.E Scoop Bralette, size up x1 F.E Cropped Tee, size up x2 Wireless Push Up Plunge Bra, I sized up x1 Also have purchased: Cotton Briefs and matching Triangle Bra, Cotton Onsie (my fav), F.E Mock Neck Maxi Dress, Zip Front Swim Onsie, Socks and more. The online store does take a % if you return for credit/debit which is not ideal as a first time buyer. I benefit from getting store credit because I know I will continue purchasing, but just be mindful.

    I love that I get an email when a new launch is happening. They usually drop a few days after the email. There is no rhyme or reason to the drops and there is always something you never expected. The marketing is really 10/10.

  • I purchased a waist-cincher just a couple of days ago. XS: the goal was less to make me thinner than to tighten up what I have and I was pleasantly surprised by how nice it felt against my skin. Super smooth. Nice and light. Used the tighter of if hook and eye columns and it still can slip on if I wiggle enough. Does the job of msking me look more toned very nicely. This came in a nice case, but I can’t imagine why I would need this as it takes up a lot less space if I don’t use it.

    Feedback

    Not sure why this gets the hype it does although it is a decent product. Just not world-changing nice. It’s a bit pricey.

  • Love the brand used their products for my wedding and it the shape-wear did a amazing job making my dress look seamless on me

  • I have bought a lot from skims over time, most of it underwear. I have been very underwhelmed by the shapewear I've bought, but the 'fits everybody' material and the lounge collection are tops in my personal opinion. They have somewhat inclusive sizing, and if I'm not mistaken they also have a small adaptable line, as well.

  • Did work as shapewear, but it pills after one use. More affordable, and better quality out there

  • i liked their things but wish they would make some products for women with small torsos

  • I'll be honest I did not have high expectations for this product but happy to say they exceeded my expectations. I ordered two different sizes because I wasn't sure where I landed. Turns out they both work out depending on how bloated I am on that particular day. I wore the high waisted thong for a wedding and was comfortable the entire day.

  • So well made, high quality, and comfy. I continue to purchase skims because they are reliable and versatile. Kim K really did a thing here!!!
