The cat’s out of the bag and everyone has heard about it: The Skims x The North Face collection, which has been generating no shortage of buzz as of late, finally went live on Dec. 10, and all of its pieces sold out hours after the launch. Fear not, though — your winter forecast can still be stylish with a chance of snow if you get on the waitlist at skims.com.

When iconic, top-selling brands like Skims and The North Face come together, magic is bound to be the outcome — especially when considering the new line perfectly blends the buttery soft shapewear Skims is known for with The North Face’s emphasis on technical, fit-for-the-outdoors materials. The collab’s high-performing, chic pieces are ideal for ski trips, yes, but also for anyone looking to snag the women’s winter coat of their dreams. There’s the 2000 Retro Nuptse Jacket, an archival The North Face style (whose iterations have made it on our list of 2024’s best puffer jackets for women) reimagined in Skims’ signature neutrals like Ochre, Sienna, and Cocoa; the 1995 Retro Denali Fleece Jacket, with a plush fabric that’s not only durable but also protective against the elements; the Woven Seam Taped Pant, whose nylon construction makes it waterproof and breathable both; and more. The collection also features a beanie (with both brands’ embroidered logos front-and-center!), two legging styles fit for layering under heavy-duty ski pants, and fleece gloves.

Coming on the heels of Pantone’s reveal that Mocha Mousse is their 2025 Color of the Year, the Skims x The North Face line’s colorways couldn’t have been more on-trend (at this point, owning winter gear in shades of scrumptious brown is a must). Shoppers will also be pleased with the fact that the items stay true to the very ethos that Skims got famous for in the first place: enhancing curves. After all, many products like the aforementioned Woven Seam Taped Pant boast cinched waistlines and others, like the Refina Bodysuit, have body-shaping stitch lines.

It’s no wonder that inventory has been depleted at lightning-fast speeds. Some collab teaser videos have amassed over 8 million views; joint Skims and The North Face Instagram posts have garnered as many as 149,000 likes; and, overall pre-launch social media activity from the brands generated $5.4 million in media impact, according to Launchmetrics.

Editor testing and review notes: “I own three Skims slip dresses, and you can find me wearing one of them nearly any day I’m working from home and on the weekends under a lightweight sweater or a leather jacket. They’re supremely stretchy and form-fitting in a flattering way — the fabric doesn’t just hug my curves but also smooths them — and these dresses don’t pill or fade with multiple wash and dry cycles.” — WWD Shop Senior Beauty & Lifestyle Commerce Editor Claire Sullivan

Editor testing and review notes: “I spotted a friend wearing this bodysuit with low-rise baggy jeans and sneakers and I knew I had to have it. The square cut is modern and not too revealing, and the low back adds some edge. That low back doesn’t allow you to wear a bra with it, however those with a small chest won’t need one due to the fabric’s shaping abilities.” — Sullivan

Editor testing and review notes: “I reach for this lightweight t-shirt year-round: In the summer, I’ll team it with linen trousers to brave a hot commute, and during winter I’ll wear it on a flight to avoid overheating. It has the breathability of a tissue tee but with enough coverage to conceal my bra straps.” — Sullivan

Editor testing and review notes: “I’m typically most comfortable in wireless bras, however, this is one of the few underwire bras I can wear for a full day without wanting to rip it off by the time I’m home. The underwire feels flexible, not stiff, almost like it moves with you rather than feeling like a corset on my chest. Even after washing and drying it, it fits true to size.” — Sullivan
