In July, SKIMS refreshed its popular swimwear line just in time for the global heat wave. When the collection was first introduced in March, it sold out almost immediately, as is customary for the company. A big part of its initial success was that it was endorsed by the brand’s founder, Kim Kardashian, who shared beachy photos with her 326 million Instagram followers in the weeks leading up to the launch. But it was also because the items were high-quality and innovative, as they could be worn in the water, by the pool, or on the beach.
Sizes XXS to 4X are available in the newest collection, which has 23 various designs designed to be combined and matched. This includes several old favorites as well as 11 new debuts. Prices range from $32 to $108. A new bubblegum pink tint has been added to the collection, along with white and the previously available ochre, almond, cocoa, gunmetal, and onyx tones.
A pair of $48 USD Swim Gloves, available in seven different colors and sizes, seems to be out of stock on the company’s website already. Using the same “stretchy swim fabric” as the Skims swimming suits, the gloves are safe to use in the water. A few people on social media questioned whether or not it made sense to wear elbow-length gloves while in the water, despite the gloves’ popularity online. However, the thought of vacationing in swim gloves is still appealing to a sizable portion of the population that the brand appeals to.
Our definitive guide to the SKIMS Swim collection includes a few favorites and all the details you need to know. Make your choice from the items below.
Two Pieces
If you haven’t already made it to the beach this year, it’s only a matter of time until you’re dousing yourself in sunscreen and dipping your toes into the ocean’s waves. The ideal two-piece swimsuit or bikini for your day in the sun is essential before you make your first oceanside appearance. A broad variety of mix-and-match shirts and bottoms are available at SKIMS Swim, all of which are both fashionable and seductive.
In addition to the Swim Tank Bikini Top, which includes a flattering scoop neck and an underband for extra support, we also have the Swim Triangle Top, a simple swim design with ties at the neck and back for a customizable fit. If you’re looking for the most minimum swimwear possible, go no further than the Swim Micro Tanga Bikini Thong, which has a very dipped front and an ultra-cheeky rear. Swim Mid Waist Shorts are a sporty alternative that may be worn alone for optimum coverage or combined to create a complete swimsuit ensemble.
One Pieces
Featuring a scoop neckline, racerback straps, and cheeky back coverage, the Swim Cut Out Monokini is a show-stopping one-piece swimsuit. With its deep scoop neck and back and completely adjustable straps and modest back coverage, the Swim Scoop Neck One Piece is a modern take on a classic. The Zip Front Long Sleeve One Piece is a long-sleeve silhouette for a sporty design that will keep you looking good throughout any aquatic activity.
Pieces from the “Metallic Swim” collection, which was previously launched in July, may be seen in a glamorous ad in which Kim Kardashian is turned into an ’80s bombshell. Available in “Nickle,” “Champagne,” and “Gold” hues, the collection features classic items from SKIMS as well as standout one-pieces. With its deep scoop necklines and modest back coverage, the ultra-flattering Metallic Swim High Cut One Piece will have you feeling as hot as you appear.
Cover Ups
It takes more than just a bikini or a one-piece to put together the ultimate beach or poolside ensemble. It’s much easier to move from the water to your next destination when you have a well-chosen swimsuit cover-up. A wide variety of skirts, blouses, and dresses are available at SKIMS.
The Swim Tank Dress is ideal for a day at the beach or a night out on the town. The short length and square neckline of this transitional item make it simple to wear. You may also use it as a cover-up or as a top under another swimsuit or cover-up from your wardrobe. There is also a long-sleeve version made of the same flexible fabric with a cropped length. Size down for a more snug fit, the brand says.
Accessories
The plush Terry Towel, part of the SKIMS Swim collection, adds extra softness and luxury to your beach or poolside experience. Perfect for sunbathing and lazing by the pool in elegance. The fabric dries quickly and has a repeating logo design. If you’re looking for something to complement your ensemble, this piece is available in all of the same colors as the aforementioned pieces. Swim Gloves from the brand are another way to create an impact in the pool or on the beach, immediately elevating your style. Nylon and spandex combine to create a flexible aquatic fabric for these long-sleeve gloves.
