The North Face x SKIMS: A Match Made in Winter Fashion Heaven

·by Hannah O'Connor

In a collaboration that effortlessly marries high performance with high fashion, Kim Kardashian has once again teamed up with an industry titan. Hot on the heels of the successful Dolce & Gabbana x SKIMS collaboration, Kim's latest partnership is with none other than The North Face, a brand synonymous with outdoor adventure and winter sports. The result? A winter collection that combines The North Face’s legendary technical prowess with SKIMS’ signature sleek and body-conscious aesthetic.

This new collection is a game-changer, offering a stylish take on winter gear that’s both functional and incredibly chic. The partnership takes The North Face’s iconic designs and reimagines them through the lens of SKIMS’ minimalist, neutral-toned palette, featuring an array of earthy tones like warm beige, rich browns, and classic blacks. The result is a collection that feels as much at home on the slopes of the Alps as it does lounging by a cozy fire in a mountain chalet.

The capsule features everything you could possibly need to survive (and look amazing doing so) this winter: down jackets, waterproof pants, form-fitting base layers, snug beanies, and warm gloves—all designed to keep you warm and stylish through whatever the elements throw your way. Whether you're conquering a ski slope or simply running errands, these pieces are the epitome of functional fashion.


Kim Kardashian, who is known for her impeccable taste and love of body-enhancing designs, says of the collaboration, “This is SKIMS’ first foray into winter apparel, and teaming up with The North Face has allowed us to leverage their expertise in outdoor performance while infusing our aesthetic vision into the mix. It’s the perfect blend of function and beauty, and I can’t wait to wear these pieces on my next ski trip!”

The advertising campaign, shot by the celebrated American contemporary artist Vanessa Beecroft, showcases models navigating the dramatic Chilean mountainside, seamlessly moving between the peaks and the slopes in the brand's minimalist layering system. The photos highlight the sophisticated, tonal color-blocking and technical features that make this collection stand out in a crowded winter wear market.

This collaboration marks a pivotal moment for SKIMS as it expands beyond loungewear and shapewear, solidifying its place as a go-to brand for all-season, all-occasion wardrobes. With this partnership, SKIMS is not just creating clothing—it’s redefining what we wear when we face the elements.

Available for purchase starting December 10, 2024, the The North Face x SKIMS collection can be found online at SKIMS’ official website, select The North Face stores, and at luxury retailers such as SSENSE, Highsnobiety, and Luisa via Roma. The range offers sizes from XXS to 3X and S to XL, with prices ranging from £60.00 to £360.00, ensuring that there’s something for everyone in the market for functional yet fashionable winter wear.

Mark your calendars—this is one collection you won’t want to miss. Whether you're hitting the slopes or simply enjoying the chilly air, this collaboration ensures you'll do so in style.
