Skims, the innovative shapewear brand launched by Kim Kardashian in 2019, has recently gained attention for its unexpected benefits. American woman Angelina Wiley’s life was saved when she wore a Skims bodysuit during a shooting in Kansas City earlier this year. The intense compression of the garment prevented her from bleeding out after being shot four times, highlighting the innovative design of Skims and sparking a discussion on the evolution of shapewear and its role in modern fashion.
