Thrive CapitalImaginary VenturesKim Kardashian and Jens Grede co-founded SKIMS in June 2019, along with Emma Grede, initially calling the company Kimono Intimates before renaming it after criticism that the original name disrespected Japanese culture. Headquartered in Los Angeles, SKIMS makes shapewear, underwear, and loungewear in sizes from XXS to 5XL, with shapewear offered in nine skin-tone shades, and has since added menswear and collaborations with Fendi and Nike.
The brand sold out its first collection within ten minutes of launch and had sold more than three million products by the end of its first year. SKIMS' valuation climbed from $1.6 billion in April 2021 to $3.2 billion in January 2022 and past $5 billion by 2025.
