Kim Kardashian Releases New Shapeware Line Called Skims: Where To Buy, Prices

Kim Kardashian West finally released her much-awaited collection of shapewear called Skims on Tuesday. The line, which was created due to the "Keeping Up With the Kardashian" star's personal struggles with finding products that worked for her, features a wide range of sizes, colors, and more. Where can fans purchase the "solution-focused" pieces?

In a press release, Skims stated that it sets out to be "a new, innovative approach to shape enhancing undergarments" that is "fueled by [Kardashian West's] passion to create something that doesn’t currently exist." How does the line differ from what has previously been in the market? Per People, the mogul made sure that "comfort was key," as she shared that many people hadn't previously taken to shapewear due to its potentially-claustrophobic nature.

Additionally, per the press release, the line uses "the most advanced construction techniques to create new solutions: heavy bonded materials that smooth and flatter, seamless technology that sculpts and lifts, compression that cinches in the waist, and lightweight, breathable fabrics for comfort and ease."

On top of providing "innovative solutions to achieve fashion and body goals for all," Kardashian also sought to create designs that fixed a specific problem, such as a one-leg bike short that was intentionally created to be worn under gowns or skirts with a slit.
