Last week, the news broke that SKIMS, the brainchild of Kim Kardashian and arguably the brand which has revolutionised the shapewear market, would be collaborating with Dolce & Gabbana on a new collection. While it was a surprise, we should have predicted it – after all, this is the label which was inextricably linked to Kourtney Kardashian's wedding (the design duo said they 'hosted' proceedings in Italy) and, since then, Kim has 'curated' a collection for the label. Now, the SKIMS collaboration is available to shop – and unsurprisingly, some pieces are already selling out.
The campaign images launched last week didn't give much away, other than show Kim and sister Kourtney doing their best impression of Sophia Loren in skin-tight leopard print and balconette bras. Now the full collection has launched, it's clear that it stays true to the SKIMS aesthetic while incorporating the unapologetic glamour for which Dolce & Gabbana is so known. This translates to a whole lot of leopard print, in the form of push-up bras, long sleeved T-shirts, long silk slip dresses and pyjama sets. All are available in the typically inclusive sizing we've come to expect from SKIMS.
There are also classic SKIMS pieces, like the tank tops, high waisted briefs and mesh bodysuits with some extra-special items thrown in – think silk leopard corsets, babydoll dresses and some oversized silk cargo pants, also in the signature spotted print.
Some pieces have been so popular, they've already sold out but it is possibly to join the waiting list, which means you'll be first in the queue when stock is replenished. But don't waste any more time – shop the best Dolce&Gabbana x SKIMS pieces below, while you still can.
