If you saw Nia Long at the opening of the new SKIMS flagship store in NYC on December 12 and thought, “Damn! She should do a campaign with SKIMS,” then I have good news for you!! Enter: Nia Long’s new SKIMS shapewear campaign, which is truly iconique.
In the below BTS pic exclusively for Cosmo, the actor (who’s set to star in the forthcoming Michael Jackson biopic Michael) looks s-t-u-n-n-i-n-g in key pieces from the collection.
P.S. Curious about the latest shapewear campaign? Say no more! Per the company’s press release, SKIMS’ “most alluring campaign yet” is all about “highlighting key collections, such as SKIMS Body, Seamless Sculpt, and Hosiery, each designed to offer a flattering fit and versatile style for every body type and occasion.” Renowned artist, photographer, and longtime SKIMS creative collaborator Vanessa Beecroft was tapped to capture Nia in the inclusive range of tonal shapewear.
“The images captured by Vanessa Beecroft represent the freedom I’ve embraced to love all of myself,” Nia tells Cosmo of the experience. “Women have a choice to reinvent themselves at any age. It is truly an honor to be a part of the SKIMS family, where women are celebrated at any age and size. Getting almost naked with SKIMS in my 50s is liberating. I’ve never felt better.”
And apparently, the admiration is mutual. “I have been in awe of Nia since the ’90s, so to have her star in our latest SKIMS shapewear campaign is truly iconic,” Kim Kardashian said in a press release. “Nia is such a beautiful and confident woman, which was so effortlessly captured for the campaign. She looks so incredible in every single piece.”
