NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Music City is about to get a major fashion-forward upgrade as SKIMS, the wildly popular shapewear and lifestyle brand co-founded by media mogul Kim Kardashian, prepares to open its first Nashville storefront in The Mall at Green Hills. Known for its sleek, body-positive apparel that merges comfort with confidence, SKIMS is joining an exclusive lineup of luxury and experiential brands reshaping Nashville’s high-end retail scene.
The boutique is set to open soon, however, the official opening date has not yet been announced. Retail insiders suggest the launch could happen as early as this fall, aligning with a broader expansion of new store arrivals in the area.
“We’re thrilled to welcome these premier experiential brands to The Mall at Green Hills,” said Norah Buikstra, General Manager of the property. “Each one brings something unique to our community, whether it’s timeless luxury, sustainable style, or innovative comfort.”
SKIMS, currently valued at an estimated $4 billion, has been on a rapid growth trajectory, launching dedicated storefronts in fashion capitals like Los Angeles, Washington, D.C., New York, and most recently, Atlanta and Austin. The addition of a Nashville location solidifies the brand’s confidence in the city’s body positivity and wellness-conscious consumer base.
Industry analysts say SKIMS’ decision to plant roots in Nashville is more than a branding move, it’s a strategic expansion into one of the country’s fastest-growing, fitness-oriented cities. The brand’s emphasis on body inclusivity, versatile loungewear, and athleisure aligns perfectly with Nashville’s rising wellness and fitness culture.
“Nashville has a unique identity where comfort meets style and self-care meets community,” said Danielle Harmon, a local fashion stylist and wellness influencer. “SKIMS fits that aesthetic and mindset beautifully. It’s not just about looking good in the clothes—it’s about how you feel in them.”
SKIMS originally gained attention for its size-inclusive shapewear and solution-based underwear, but the brand has since expanded to include loungewear, athletic apparel, swimwear, and men’s basics. While the Nashville location will launch with the brand’s signature women’s collection, insiders hint that men’s apparel may follow in a second wave, depending on store performance and customer demand.
SKIMS has carved out a niche at the intersection of fashion and function, a place that resonates with the wellness-minded community in Nashville. As boutique fitness studios, wellness spas, and holistic health hubs rise across the city, SKIMS’ offering of breathable, body-hugging basics provides a wardrobe that keeps up with Nashville’s active lifestyle.
Beyond style, the brand’s ethos, body acceptance, comfort-first design, and representation mirrors a broader cultural shift toward wellness from the inside out.
While Nashville is known for its boots and rhinestones, the city is embracing a new wave of fashion-forward living—one rooted in confidence, comfort, and cultural awareness. With the addition of SKIMS to Green Hills’ evolving retail mix, Nashville continues its rise as a Southern capital of not just music, but also modern lifestyle and self-expression.
For now, locals are watching closely for grand opening details, giveaways, and influencer sneak peeks—which are all signature parts of the SKIMS rollout experience.
