The highly anticipated NikeSKIMS collaboration has officially arrived in Australian stores as of this morning, February 6. This marks the brand's expansion into the Australian market following its international debut last September.
A Fusion of Style and Performance
Fronted by global K-pop superstar LISA from Blackpink, the debut collection masterfully blends SKIMS' signature body-hugging aesthetics with Nike's renowned performance technology. The range presents a sophisticated palette of ballerina-inspired hues including pale pink, black, brown, and grey across soft silhouettes and wrap layers.
Designed for Movement and Grace
Crafted to celebrate the modern ballerina, the collection represents what the brand describes as "grace in motion and strength in form." The Spring '26 line introduces five distinct apparel collections alongside the new NikeSKIMS Rift Satin footwear and updated accessories.
"This Spring '26 Collection celebrates the timeless poise and elegance of ballerinas but with a distinct modern twist," explains Kim Kardashian, Co-Founder and Chief Creative Officer of SKIMS. "We obsessed every detail — from the soft lines and feminine colors to the premium materials. Each piece is a statement of beauty and allows women to move with confidence and grace."
Innovative Fabric Technology
This launch represents NikeSKIMS' first complete head-to-toe dressing system, featuring five specialized material collections: Matte, Stretch Knit, Ribbed Seamless, Weightless Layers, and Woven Nylon. Each fabric has been engineered to be breathable, lightweight, and high-performing while maintaining stunning visual appeal.
Collection Highlights
Among the standout pieces generating significant buzz is the NikeSKIMS Stretch Knit, priced at $100, which has been praised for its dreamy appearance both on models and in person. The NikeSKIMS Matte Women's V-Panel Stirrup Leggings ($170) feature a double-layered V-panel designed to sculpt and accentuate the body's natural curves.
The collection also introduces the NikeSKIMS Rift Satin shoes at $240, expected to become a controversial yet highly sought-after item. Size inclusivity remains a priority with options ranging from XXS to 4XL, while pricing spans from $35 to $240 across the range.
Early indicators show Australian shoppers are enthusiastically embracing the ballet-inspired aesthetic, with many rushing to add the soft pink pieces to their carts. The collection offers versatile pieces perfect for low-impact exercise sessions like Pilates classes while maintaining the style sophistication needed for post-workout social occasions.
