Kim Kardashian Launches Underwear With Faux Pubic Hair

Skims introduces a $32 faux hair thong with 12 shade variations, aiming to expand into the merkin market despite mixed reactions on social media.

  • On October 14, 2025, Skims, the shapewear company spearheaded by Kim Kardashian, launched 'The Ultimate Bush' via Instagram and its website, entering the merkin market.
  • Skims' past releases show the brand pushing boundaries with faux nipple bras about two years ago and The Ultimate Butt Collection earlier this year under Kim Kardashian, 44-year-old mogul and Skims' creative director and biggest shareholder.
  • The product features sheer mesh, hand-tufted construction with curly and straight faux hair in twelve shade variations, offered in sizes XXS to 4X and listed as Skims’ 'most daring panty yet.'
  • On social media, Skims' campaign video drew almost 500 Instagram comments within an hour, with followers writing 'Kim Kardashian done lost her mind with them new underwear' and 'I'm calling 911,' critics called the product shocking.
  • Culturally, commentators said the drop reframes pubic hair as a fashion trend and continues Skims' prior buzzy launches, fueling broader fashion and cultural conversation.
