Skims, the shapewear and intimates brand created by Kim Kardashian, has raised $270 million in a Series C funding round that values it at $4 billion, the company announced Wednesday. That’s up from its previous valuation of $3.2 billion in 2022.

Led by Wellington Management with participation from Green Oaks Capital Partners, D1 Capital Partners and Imaginary Ventures, the new funding will go toward product innovation, category expansion and retail expansion, Skims said in a statement.

The company is on track to reach $750 million in net sales this year, up from about $500 million in 2022. Since its founding in 2019, Skims has raised a total of $670 million.

The funding round comes on the heels of the news that Kardashian is currently fundraising for her new private equity firm SKKY Partners, which will focus on consumer media and investments.
