Summary
- SKIMS raises $225 million in new financing
- Brand now valued at $5 billion
- Plans to expand internationally with new funding
In a major milestone for Kim Kardashian's fashion empire, her clothing company SKIMS has raised $225 million in new financing, now valuing the brand at a staggering $5 billion. Kardashian, who co-founded SKIMS with Jens Grede, announced the news on November 11, 2025, stating that the funding will help the brand reach an exciting new chapter as a "global omnichannel retail brand."
SKIMS, which currently operates 18 physical locations across the United States, including in New York, Los Angeles, and Atlanta, in addition to its thriving online store, plans to use the new capital to fuel its international expansion. The brand's rapid growth and soaring valuation validate the hard work of the SKIMS team and its partners, cementing Kardashian's status as a savvy businesswoman and fashion innovator.
The announcement comes just weeks after SKIMS made headlines for its controversial new line of pubic hair-revealing underwear, which sparked a mix of praise and criticism from consumers. However, the brand's ability to generate buzz and attract significant investment suggests that Kardashian and her team have a keen understanding of the evolving fashion landscape and the desires of their target audience.
