Introduction to SKIMS bodysuit

From Kim to SKIMS: A history on the SKIMS bodysuit shapewear line

The year was 2019. Masks were Halloween costumes or slipped on to keep the dust away. Shops were open, and sneezing in a bus was not answered by glares or fearful gazes. Kim Kardashian still had the last name of a cardinal point, and Kanye was, well, Kanye. A new celebrity brand opened its eyes to our wonderful world, where “social-distancing” was a thing exclusively for introverts. Its first cry was in the form of a hashtag that is an impressive play of words: #ShowYourSKIMS.

SKIMS’ original name, though, had attracted a massive backlash. The Kimono, it was previously called, with yet another play on words with Kim standing for the celebrity of the hour and ono meaning one. Well, that was what she thought anyway, and wrongly too as the root words of kimono are “ki (wear)” and “mono (thing).”

Tweeps (Twitter users) didn’t appreciate the pun. They used the Social Media site to express their disagreement with essay-long threads accompanied with the hashtag #KimOhNo. Even the Mayor of Kyoto City asked Kim to reconsider the brand’s name, which she promptly did along with an apology.

Despite the muddy and controversial waters of SKIMS’ origins, on its first day of launch, the brand sold out within minutes—yes! Minutes!—amassing a profit of 2 million USD.

What fabric is the SKIMS bodysuit made of?

SKIMS bodysuits are often made of nylon fabric and spandex, but they also come in other materials such as cotton.

Does SKIMS bodysuit have a built-in bra?

SKIMS bodysuits do not all come with built-in bras, but this is no downer as SKIMS bodysuits are made of thick materials, so there is no need for a bra when you slip them on. Unless, of course, you choose to wear the bodysuits with free busts.

On this topic, Kim Kardashian says: “With these you don’t have to wear a bra because they hold you.


How to wash SKIMS bodysuit

The day is past. You’ve worn a SKIMS bodysuit either for an outing or two, and naturally, you want to wash it so you can wear it again the next day. But how do you clean SKIMS bodysuits? What is the proper way to clean them while ensuring they last you many more days, stunning your friends with their gracious highlights?

Well, I highly recommend washing them with your hands, so the bodysuit’s material retains its integrity and, as such, lasts longer. Be gentle and make use of warm water!

Ensure you use soft detergents as well, special ones that lack alcohol, dyes, softeners, and bleach, like the ones that do have these ingredients can eat at your bodysuits, ruining its integrity and shape. Use the type of detergents made for lingerie as these are more gentle on your bodysuits.

If you feel like you must use a washing machine, be sure to use the machine’s softest and shortest cycle in cold water. Ensure to use a lingerie bag for your SKIMS bodysuits, and do not wash them with other clothes.

After you’ve done all that, dry them out in the sun from a hanger and not with your dryer.

And like that, you’re ready to look fabulous again come the next outing or Instagram post.
