Shoppers can find the pieces on Skims’ e-commerce store, at Skims and The North Face retail locations, and at select luxury retailers, including Ssense, Highsnobiety, and Luisa Via Roma.

“I’m extremely proud to announce The North Face x Skims collaboration.

The collection is a combination of functional and flattering apparel solutions for the season.” said Kim Kardashian, co-founder and chief creative officer, Skims. 

“I’ve spent a lot of time on the slopes, so I was definitely inspired when we were developing this collection and I can’t wait to wear these pieces on my next trip.” 

The collection launches with two campaigns. A shoot by Vanessa Beecroft showcases models navigating the slopes of Chile, while another, shot by Donna Trope, features Kim Kardashian herself donning key looks from the collection. Both campaigns highlight the collection’s versatility and monochromatic layering.
