Skims, Kim Kardashian‘s shapewear and clothing brand, is all set to enter the Indian market. Known for its sculpting shapewear, curve-framing bodysuits, lingerie, and neutral-toned basics, the brand has garnered a major global fan following since its debut in 2019.
The brand is quite a viral sensation on social media for its body-hugging and contouring features of the products. The brand makes its way to India via a partnership with Reliance Brands Limited (RBL), giving Indians easier access to the favourite shapewear products.
