Summer has officially gotten hotter—and no, it's not because of the weather. Kim Kardashian and her ultra-successful brand SKIMS are entering a new chapter with a collaboration that's an explosion of glamour, boldness, and... animal prints. With Cavalli, the fashion emperor of wild prints and Mediterranean seduction, they've created a collection that brings a new dimension to swimwear—one that knows no holds barred and knows that everyone wants a little drama this summer.
Although SKIMS usually known for its minimalist aesthetic, this time things went in a completely different direction – and that's its strength. Instead of a soft neutral palette, we now get vibrant prints, reminiscent of a time when fashion still knew how to say "why not?" Just imagine: vintage Cavalli, who loves tigers, pheasants and zebras, but presents them through the sophisticated filter of a modern silhouette. And as always with Kim – every piece is made with the body in mind. In all shapes and sizes.
Explosion of prints: Fagianella, Zebra, Tiger Face
New collection SKIMS Swim x Roberto Cavalli brings a reinterpretation of the most popular SKIMS models – this time dressed up in three selected archival prints from Cavalli's fashion treasure trove:
- Fagianella: a subtle yet exotic pattern reminiscent of pheasant feathers in a soft color tone - for those who want to charm without screaming.
- Light Zebra: a softer interpretation of the iconic zebra pattern that adds texture without the chaos.
- Tiger Face: exactly what it says on the packaging – a dramatic, almost hypnotic tiger face print that makes an impression in a second.
The collection includes everything you need for holiday in style: scoop-neck one-piece swimsuit, boldly cut bikinis, light bedspreads also fashion accessories, which are made to match - both the outfit and the location, be it Saint-Tropez or your home pool.
Kim x Cavalli = a fashion metaphor for power
Kim stated at the launch:
"I've always admired Cavalli's exotic prints and bold energy., so collaborating on this collection was something really special. With it, we created something unexpected and sophisticated.”
And indeed, the collection is not only an aesthetic treat, but also a fashion statement: that every body can rule swimsuit season, regardless of size or latitude.
When fashion meets film: a dreamlike campaign
The entire collection is rounded off with a campaign shot by – who else? Nadia Lee Cohen, a visual artist who mixes retro aesthetics, film nostalgia and unexpected theatricality. They appear in the campaign Kim Kardashian and Kris Jenner, caught in scenes that could easily be part of some 70s fashion-psychological Italian drama.

Each photo is a work of art, full of color contrasts, seductive poses, and mysterious smiles. In short – this is not just a campaign, it's an exhibition. With lots of cleavage.
