Skims has landed Kim Kardashian on the cover of Time magazine. The publication revealed its June 21 issue on Tuesday, featuring a list of the 100 most influential businesses of 2023.
Kardashian’s monochromatic cover look included a black long-sleeve bodysuit, gloves and a crocodile print maxiskirt with buckle-embellished cutouts. She also added on a pair of crushed velvet boots.
The business mogul was photographed by Dana Scruggs, who has also created covers for Rolling Stone, Numéro and Essence.
Kardashian founded her shapewear line in 2019. Since then, Skims has expanded to loungewear, sleepwear and will soon venture into men’s.
