Reviews on SKIMS’s website have a higher average rating compared to reviews on Thingtesting.

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.

  • Hit or miss, but mostly hit! I love their fits everybody material and soft smoothing bralettes. Their other bralettes seem to have a very tight band and sizing runs small. Wish they stocked up on more of the popular sizes and colors at Nordstrom.

  • I love the swimwear and the dresses! Super comfortable, breathable, and stylish! I get tons of compliments and I appreciate skims working to be more size inclusive with their marketing, too!

  • I ordered the Fits Everybody Triangle Bralette in Sienna. It is a very comfortable piece, but I wish it had some kind of padding so you could not see any nipping situation. I wanted a comfortable bra to wear to work, but I have to add my own padding to make it look work appropriate.

  • LOVE Skims!!! They truly make the best loungewear, bras, underwear, all of it, I have had nothing but great experiences with everything from Skims! I wear Skims on a daily basis now - definitely worth it!!

  • Most comfortable tanks! Wear at least one of their tanks once a week. It's on the expensive side, so definitely a splurge.

  • The fits everybody dip front thongs are the only underwear I wear and completely worth the price. Otherwise, I would skip most of the clothing items as you can get similar quality elsewhere in my experience.

  • I bought some of their products for my mom, and the branding and mission are incredible, however they weren’t stretch enough and the bigger size was too loose, so she had to return the items. It’s a good minimalist option but difficult to find the perfect size.

  • Everything I've ordered is soooo buttery soft, I'm absolutely obsessed! The Naked bras are my favorite!

  • Do I want to love Skims as much as I do? For obvious-ish reasons... not really (I don't want to support the Kardashian-ification of our collective taste!). HOWEVER, Skims consistency makes such great products, I can't help but give it 5 stars! From the underwear to bras to loungewear, it's all such great quality and fit. I wore Skims under my wedding dress, sleep in the PJ set, and wear the undies and crossover bra almost everyday. It also is shipped in a paper bag, which I highly value and appreciate!

    I'd recommend sizing up, and going for the cotton pieces! They also have a super easy return policy, so it's worth ordering a couple sizes at first.

  • Absolutely love the products. They are comfortable and functional.

    Feedback

    Having to pay for returns is a pain - the returns process should be so much easier, especially given how easy the competitors make it. And by the time you submit the return, the product is often sold out. Underwear is excellent though!!

  • quality of everything I've bought is good and items are TTS.

    Feedback

    don't do exchanges so the process to return and re-buy is lengthy. also costs $6 to process a return if you don't choose store credit refund.

  • First and foremost, everything runs VERY VERY small. I’m an XL and everything I’ve gotten I have had to order an XXL to feel comfortable. I have several of the bandeaus and love them - they’re very soft and comfy if you get the right size. Personally, I prefer to buy these secondhand because I don’t think the price is worth it.

  • When I first opened it up it appeared very tiny and was a slightly difficult to put on because I have a large chest and thighs. However once it was on it fit very comfortably and supported all the right areas. The compression was enough to keep everything in place and outlined my figure perfectly. The crotch area is also a lot more comfortable than I was anticipating. The only think I wish is that the cups were slightly padded, not because it doesn't provide enough support but because I don't like my nipples showing through some thin outfits. This was an easy fix though, I just took a pair of removable pads from one of my bras and through it in the bodysuit and it worked perfectly.

  • I now have 3 pieces from skims, and so far I’m fairly impressed. Despite using the same size across multiple different brands, the skims bras have always fit me best. Looking seamless under shirts and hugging my breasts with no gaps given my smaller size. They are pricey for me though, and not as readily available in Canada.

    Feedback

    I think the bras are worth it (namely the underwire mesh bras), but their underwear is so-so. So far I’ve tried the cotton string bikini, which doesn’t fit with my proportions and looks odd, and the cotton dipped thong, which has rave reviews but IMO is nothing special. I did thoroughly enjoy the comfort of the cotton rib brief, although the piling happening on the waistband is unsightly.

    I love all my skins stuff! It’s literally my most flattering and favorite items I own. They don’t lose shape or color with washing and I really believe they are worth their value. My only complaint is that they sell out so quickly and don’t bring colors back

  • It's okay for what I needed. I wanted something with a bit more compression. The fit is alright but if you want more compression, get another brand.

  • Suuuuper cozy when you get it - but over time, pills and snags quite easily. The brand wants you to treat the products like everyday staples but everything quickly shows wear. Sort of disappointing at this price point.

    Quality

  • I have a high waisted shape wear and a sculpting bodysuit

    Feedback

    The sizing is very off, I’m a different size in every SKIMS product. For shapewear size up. At the price point, there isn’t as much control or sculpting that you’d expect, and the quality is poor, my pieces have both started fraying after three wears. Spanx shapewear offers much more control and better quality at roughly the same price.

  • I was hesitant to buy Skims at first due to the fact that it is a celebrity owned brand, but I've become such a fan of their underwear, loungewear, and bras over time. They produce the smoothest fabric, especially in their Fits Everybody line, and they sculpt you to make you feel like your best self. I find myself buying from them many times over.

    Feedback

    Some of the items definitely get a bit worn, even washing in a delicates bag. With a price tag of $18 for underwear, it seems like they should be more resilient than that. However, the products are still overall a great find.
