SKIMS

When Kim Kardashian launched SKIMS in 2019, it quickly became one of the most popular and sought-after shapewear brands on the market. Offering a wide range of products including bodysuits, leggings, bras, and more, the brand set itself apart with its focus on comfort, versatility, and inclusivity. And while celebrities and influencers have raved about SKIMS, it’s safe to say Kardashian’s brand — which sells $60 bodysuits and $80 dresses — is not the most affordable for us non-millionaires. If you’re looking for similar options that won’t break the bank, we’ve scoured Amazon to find the best SKIMS-inspired alternatives for less than $50.
