Kim Kardashian’s ‘SKIMS’ Bodysuits - A Review
When it comes to the shape wear game, I’ve been reluctant to try Kim Kardashian’s SKIMS brand. With the classic shape wear choices like Spanx still on the market, and new competitors like Lizzo’s Yitty brand also entering the chat, I didn’t know where to begin when it came to clothing that would hug my curves and lift my breasts, all while keeping me comfortable (and not making me feel like I’m, well, suffocating).
Enter Christmas Day and a lovely gift from my mom— a fuchsia pink bodysuit from Kim K’s SKIMS line. I was excited to try it, as I’d been interested but, as I said before, a bit skeptical— and wow, wow, wow.
Now, I haven’t tried Yitty yet (but I plan to!) and I’ve only worn a handful of Spanx products, but so far this SKIMS bodysuit is rocking my world. Let me explain—
How Kim K’s SKIMS brand bodysuit hugs every curve, without feeling restrictive
At first touch, the SKIMS bodysuits feel soft— sort of the like “butter” legging material sold by brands like LulaRoe or LuLu Lemon, which give them a silky and soft, almost barely-there lightweight feel on the body. What’s more, the fabric really allows the vibrancy of the color to shine through, and is extremely durable + can withstand some stretch.
That said, the color really allows this bodysuit to shine and be worn both while lounging at home or styled-up when you’re out and about, giving it a particular versatility I’ve really been enjoying so far. Plus, the comfortable nature of the material makes this bodysuit the perfect choice for a long day, as it doesn’t become uncomfortable or “stiff”, even after hours of wear.
Additionally, this bodysuit (though listed as being one of the “lower support” models of Kim K’s shape wear) hugs every curve and lifts the bust with ease, once again without feeling tight or stuffy. My body feels sculpted and supported all day long while I wear it, making my bust look supported and smooth (with no bra required, as the supportive nature of the garment holds everything in place as it should).
Whether you’re working, working out, running errands out and about, or just lounging around the house in a post-Christmas haze, this SKIMS bodysuit is well worth the money (coming in around $60), and seems as if it’ll last a long time (making it all the more worth the investment). I’ll definitely be ordering more SKIMS products in the future, as well as trying out some other shape wear brands to help support my natural shape.
