Skims taps Roberto Cavalli for luxury swimwear collaboration
Launching under the Skims Swim banner, the new collaboration comes inspired by the "Euro Summer", and combines Roberto Cavalli 's bold, animal prints with the U.S shapewear brand's body-enhancing swimwear, alongside billowy chiffon cover-ups and other accessories.
All items are marked by three archival Cavalli prints: Fagianella, Light Zebra, and Tiger Face, with each piece crafted in Skims' supportive fabrics, across an inclusive size range from XXS to 4X.
"Unveiling such a luxurious collection with Roberto Cavalli is incredibly exciting. I've always admired the brand's exotic prints and bold energy, and bringing that vision to life through Skims Swim allowed us to create something truly unexpected and elevated,' said Kim Kardashian, co-founder and chief creative officer, Skims.
'We paired Cavalli's most iconic prints with our signature swim silhouettes to deliver a sexy collection that empowers every body to own swim season, no matter where they vacation.'
The accompanying campaign, lensed by photographer Nadia Lee Cohen, stars Kardashian herself sporting a cropped blonde wig wearing the collab's Scoop Neck One Piece in Tiger Face Print in one image, while the influencer-turned-entrepreneur's mother, Kris Jenner, also stars, in the same shot donning matching floor-length cover-up in a striking tiger print.
"We're thrilled to introduce the Roberto Cavalli and Skims collection to the world. Collaborating with Skims on this glamorous, bold collection of swimwear has been a remarkable experience. To me, Kim is a modern Marilyn Monroe, she is the pop icon, she inspires me so much.' shared Fausto Puglisi, creative director of Roberto Cavalli, which was founded by its namesake designer in Florence, in 1970.
'Our brands are iconic in their own distinct ways, and we've meticulously blended archival prints with modern, functional design to create a collection that embodies the essence of Italian luxury.'
The Roberto Cavalli X Skims collaboration will be available for purchase on June 27, in-store and online at Skims, at select Roberto Cavalli boutiques, and via top luxury retailers, including Printemps New York.

Giorgio Armani and Kith return with second collaboration
Giorgio Armani and Kith have returned with a second collaboration paying homage to the term "estate", in a melange of Italian elegance and modern New York sophistication. The term "estate" was chosen by the Italian-New York duo for its double entendre; meaning "property" in English, and "summer" in Italian, embracing aspirational luxury and owning a summer lifestyle. In an extension of the pair's freshman menswear collaboration, the sophomore collaboration includes womenswear for the first time, with luxury dresses, kimonos, gowns and cover-ups the defining items, alongside graphic tees of Italian and American destinations, as well as a custom sarong and swimwear made with co-branded hardware. Key pieces for men include a double-breasted blazer crafted from a silk twill weave in a new silhouette, in addition to a silk crossover shirt and monogram pant, a bomber jacket, and a Bermuda short. The men's line also boasts swimwear, day shorts and a wide range of tees, as well as premium sunglasses, headwear -- from bucket hats to caps --accompanied by bandanas, bags, belts, card holders and ties. Totes, including canvas and raffia bags with suede and leather, complement suede and leather belts with a co-branded buckle. And finally, for footwear, some loafers and slides, including an espadrille loafer. Celebrating the launch, Giorgio Armani and Kith will host activations in Malibu, The Hamptons, Forte Dei Marmi and Porto Cervo, the four location that inspired the collection. This will include an early release at Kith Malibu on July 4 and at the Giorgio Armani and Kith Hamptons House on July 5 and 6 at the Topping Rose Hotel in Bridgehampton, NY. The global launch will take place at selected Giorgio Armani boutiques and Kith shops worldwide, from July 10, as well as online.
