Reliance Retail Partners with Kim Kardashian's SKIMS to Enter Indian Market
IN · Published Aug 6, 2026
Reliance Brands, the luxury retail division of Reliance Retail, has announced a partnership with Kim Kardashian's shapewear brand SKIMS to bring the globally popular label to India.
The collaboration will see SKIMS operating through both physical and digital channels, initially focusing on Delhi and Mumbai.

Impact & Risks

The entry of SKIMS into India is expected to intensify competition in the shapewear and beauty market, which is already witnessing robust growth. Local brands like Underneat and other international labels will face increased pressure to innovate and capture market share. The partnership also highlights the growing influence of global trends on Indian consumers, particularly younger demographics. However, challenges such as pricing, cultural preferences, and logistics could impact the brand's success in the Indian market.
