SKIMS is certainly a brand that keeps us on our toes. From the brand’s clever partnerships with 2024’s icons, to include Sabrina Carpenter, Jude Bellingham, and most recently Bridgerton’s Nicola Coughlan, to its sensational Swarovski collab, Kim Kardashian knows exactly how to capture an audience. That’s why, every time the bi-annual SKIMS sale comes around, we’re all ears – and purses.
The sales sees thousands of popular styles at discounted prices – nobody can say no to a bra reduced to just £24. Some of the most viral SKIMS styles includes the cotton jersey tee, the (literally most comfortable ever) fits everybody thong and of course, the TikTok-viral SKIMS slip dress. But, if you want to shop these styles with great savings, you’re going to have to be quick – it’s likely they’ll sell out within minutes.
Not only that, but SKIMS isn’t exactly known for its discounts. In fact, the shapewear brand only have two sales per year, meaning there’s only a short window to bag the items you’ve had your eyes on. If you’re eager to snag the best deals too, we’ve curated a selection of SKIMS must-haves to shop during the sale.
The Fits Everybody plunge bra is popular for a reason. With its barely-there fit and innovative cup technology that allows the bra to stretch to individuals who are in-between sizes, it’s arguably one of the most coveted SKIMS bras, ever.
It’s the dress that went viral, and now it’s got a hefty discount. The shade ‘sugar plum’ is the perfect shade of lilac, and the delicate spaghetti straps exude an understated charm. Plus, the stretch of the fabric ensures a flattering fit, and the floor-length hemline adds a little bit of drama to your stride.
If there’s anything we’ve learned from the last few months of UK weather, it’s that ‘summer’ doesn’t quite seem to be here yet. A great British summer essential, does in fact, involve a hoodie, so bag this SKIMS one while you can.
This one might not be lingerie or shapewear, but there are also some great deals on SKIMS Swim too. The scoop neck one-piece is an absolute staple (or should be) in your holiday packing, and it also can double as a bodysuit.
The famous SKIMS t-shirts are also in the sale, and we particularly enjoy with this one in the shade ‘pistachio’.
Everyone needs a pair of baggy shorts in their pyjama drawer. Made with an ultra-soft feel and a breathable fabric, these are perfect for lounging around the house.
SKIMS may be famous for its loungewear, but what about a dress you’d be able to leave the house in? Style up this mini dress with a pair of kitten heels, gold clutch and some statement earrings and you’re ready for a night out on the town.
We don’t need another reason to shop the SKIMS sale, but 50% off is tempting to say the least. The plunge bra is unique thanks to its zero-lines bonding which means you can’t see it through clothes, and high apex cups to give you that lift you’re looking for.
A pop of colour can be fun in the summer, and there’s nothing brighter than this SKIMS dress in the shade ‘neon orchid.’ This bestselling dress promises to snatch and smooth your body. Plus, it’s double-lined so you won’t need to worry about what you have on underneath.
Countless celebrities have been spotted in capri pants over the last couple of months – including Jennifer Lawrence and Gigi Hadid. Jump on the capri pant hype with a pair from SKIMS.
Butter yellow is, without a doubt, the colour of the season – so why not commit to it all the way to your underwear?
A bralette to match your new butter yellow briefs, this lace bra is buttery soft and has a pullover style, so you don’t have to faff around with closures. Its adjustable straps are also key to make sure your bralette is super snug fitting, and most importantly, still supportive.
SKIMS also sell multipacks of its cheeky brief pants, so you can experience comfort everyday of the week. Featuring some gorgeous summery shades, this five-pack would make for a great gift, or just a great gift to yourself.
For the ultimate off-duty model look, invest in a pair of tracksuit trousers. To master the look it’s simple; add a pair of oversized sunglasses and a cropped baby tee, and you’ll exuding that sporty-chic look in no time.
The SKIMS dresses are such a cult-classic, we couldn’t not add another one to the list. This body-hugging dress features a scoop neck, subtle racerback, and the SKIMS logo label. The great thing about the SKIMS dresses is that they can so easily be styled up, with a simple pair of heels and an updo.
A grey hoodie is just one of those wardrobe staples, and you won’t find one cosier than this fleece from SKIMS. It’s been spotted on Kim K herself numerous times, and fits perfectly oversized.
Although they may be rare, SKIMS does in fact, have sales. Twice a year SKIMS treat us to a sale where they often offer up to 50% off some of its bestsellers, once in the summer months and another sale comes around near Black Friday in November.
It probably won’t surprise you, but the most popular SKIMS product is the Soft Lounge Long Slip Dress. The slimming dress can be difficult to get your hands on at the best of times, and even more so when it has price deductions. It’s not hard to see why thanks to its much-loved figure-hugging silhouette and soft fabric. But, the Slip Dress shouldn’t be the only SKIMS dress on your ‘to buy’ list, also think about investing in the long-sleeve version to make sure you’ve got a SKIMS dress for all the seasons.
Another item to keep your eyes out for is the Cotton Jersey T-Shirt that took the internet by storm and was dubbed ‘the most flattering t-shirt ever’ by TikTok, thanks to its lightweight, stretchy cotton-spandex material and sizing from XXS to 4X.
The most popular collection within SKIMS is without a doubt the ‘Fits Everybody’ selection. Made up of dresses, bras and everyday underwear, there is so much in the collection we want to get our hands on. Including the best-selling thong and t-shirt bra.
