Compression, shapewear and loungewear — three sizing logics under one label.
Get Utopia freeFree on the App Store · one photo · about a minute per try-on
SKIMS covers shapewear that is meant to compress, loungewear that is meant to drape, and a growing line of outerwear and dresses in between. The fabric does the work in all three, but it does a different job in each.
Sizing across that range is genuinely confusing, and the product photography — flat, close-cropped, colour-matched — is designed to sell the fabric rather than to explain the fit.
What to try on first
- Shapewear, where the intended compression level matters
- Cotton and Soft Lounge sets
- The slip dresses and bodycon pieces
- Bralettes and everyday underwear
How SKIMS sizing actually behaves
Take shapewear at your true size — sizing down to get more compression is the most common SKIMS mistake and generally produces rolling rather than smoothing. The lounge and cotton lines are cut relaxed. The Soft Lounge slip dresses cling and are cut long, so height changes where the hem lands significantly.
How it works
Pick a fit
Browse or search more than 400,000 pieces from brands like COS, Nike, Aritzia and Reformation — in plain English, filtered by vibe — or open a product you already found elsewhere.
Add your photo
Use one full-length photo. Utopia builds a fit model from it — a reusable likeness that keeps your face, body and proportions — which takes about 40 to 70 seconds, once.
See it on you
One tap and Utopia tailors the garment onto you with true fabric, drape and lighting, in about 30 to 60 seconds. Save the look, share it, or send it to a friend before you buy.
SKIMS try-on questions
Can I try SKIMS on virtually?
+
Yes. SKIMS is in the Utopia catalogue, so a piece can be rendered onto a photo of you before you order.
Should I size down in SKIMS shapewear?
+
No. Take your true size — sizing down to increase compression usually causes the garment to roll or dig rather than smooth, which is the most common complaint.
How does SKIMS loungewear fit?
+
The cotton and lounge lines are cut relaxed rather than compressive. The Soft Lounge slip dresses cling and run long, so where the hem falls depends heavily on your height.

How to buy clothes for someone whose style you don't understand
Buying clothes for another person fails for two reasons: you guess the size and you guess the taste. Both are fixable, and neither requires asking them.
