‘Tis the season for leaning into comfort—and Skims, despite being known for undergarments and shapewear, is the brand leading the charge. No matter what piece you sport—from bras, to loungewear, and even slinky dresses—all are uncommonly soft to the touch. Just ask a Vogue editor, and they’ll spout off countless pieces they own and covet.
Vogue’s Skims Essentials List:
For some, it’s about those transitional pieces to carry them from pregnancy to motherhood and beyond. Others swear by their high-rise undies for everyday wear, and then there are those who love the ready-to-wear options most, from off-the-shoulder tops to lounge dresses that can be worn both inside and outside the home.
Discover Vogue editors’ beloved Skims favorites and shop all their go-to pieces to refresh your own collection and wardrobes.
Sculpting Briefs
“When it comes to undergarments, I’m not looking anywhere but at Skims. Their high-waisted sculpting briefs are the perfect support for long skirts, evening dresses, and silky trousers.” —Libby Page, executive shopping director
Motherhood Musts, For Now Later
“For a pregnant person, Skims is the ultimate luxury. For now and later, I love lounging in the foldover maternity pants, which require no fuss and no pulling. As I ease into mat leave, I’m taking my favorites with me—the fleece sleep set, leggings, and fuzzy, knitted robe!” — Cortne Bonilla, senior shopping writer
The Bare Necessities
“I retired from the world of underwire bras the second I discovered Skims’ wireless options. They’re perfectly supportive, but without the discomfort. I also love the Fits Everybody undies, for their softness and stretch, and the same can be said for the ultimately flattering Soft Lounge slip dress. I tend to add a pack of ankle socks to my cart every time I place an order—you simply cannot go wrong!” — Alexandra Ditch, associate shopping producer
Flattering Ready-to-Wear
“I’m really keen on no-think, ’90s minimalist outfits (especially during the work week). I’ve never met a Skims dress, skirt, or top that didn’t look as good as it feels—which is incredibly soft and figure-flattering, by the way. Their PJs are regulars in my nightly rotation, too, for being impossibly cozy.” —Concetta Ciarlo, shopping writer, beauty
Lounging About
“I’m not typically one for a matching set, but this Skims duo changed my mind—it’s made from the softest fabric blend, and the loose fit is perfect for lounging around the house.” —Elly Leavitt, shopping editor, lifestyle
