The inventory barrier I face in China

I have spent significant time searching for specific pieces from the Skims Fits Everybody Collection in local department stores across Hong Kong and mainland China. In 2026, the demand for Kim Kardashian’s shapewear has reached a peak, yet the "hidden barrier" remains: local inventory is extremely limited. We often see only the basic neutral colors and a handful of sizes, which defeats the purpose of a brand built on inclusivity.

I realized that if I wanted the full seasonal palette or the extended size range, I had to look toward the source. The US Skims website consistently stocks the complete collection, but they do not always provide the most efficient direct shipping options for us. This is why I shifted my strategy to use a freight forwarder to bridge the gap.

Why I choose the Skims Fits Everybody Collection

My preference for this specific collection comes down to the buttery-soft fabric that stretches to twice its size. It is perfect for the humid climate I often experience here, as it feels like a second skin. However, since everyone else in the region is also trying to buy these pieces, the local "out of stock" notifications are constant. By using comGateway, I can bypass these local shortages entirely.

My strategy to shop US store selections

When I shop us store websites, I get access to the same deals and drops as US residents. I use my tax-free us address provided by my freight forwarder to ensure I am not paying unnecessary US state taxes at checkout. This small step saves me about 7% to 10% on every order, which adds up when I am refreshing my entire wardrobe.

If I ever run into a situation where my Chinese credit card is not accepted, I look into proxy shopping or buy for me services. This ensures that even if the retailer has strict payment filters, I still get my items. Once the items reach the warehouse, I can forward packages to my home in Shanghai or Beijing with ease.

Shipping estimates for Skims hauls

I know many people worry about the cost of international shipping. To help you plan your 2026 budget, I have put together these estimates based on my previous orders of the Fits Everybody Collection.

Before I finalize any purchase, I always use the shipping calculator to see if adding one more bodysuit will significantly change the price. It is the best way to estimate shipping cost before committing.

How I handle import tax and China delivery

One of the most important things I have learned is how to manage import tax when my items arrive. China has specific thresholds for personal postal articles. If my order stays under a certain value, the process is usually smooth. I prefer using ship to China services that offer clear tracking so I know exactly when my package is clearing customs.

I often choose FedEx international shipping or DHL international shipping for my Skims orders because their tracking systems are incredibly reliable. While they might be slightly more expensive than standard post, the speed and security they offer for high-demand fashion items are worth it for my peace of mind.

FAQ for first-time buyers

I receive many questions about whether this process is complicated. It really isn't once you have your US address. If you have specific concerns about restricted items or storage times, you can always check the FAQ on the service provider's site. They cover everything from package consolidation to insurance.

My 2026 advice for anyone in China wanting the Skims Fits Everybody Collection is to stop waiting for local stores to restock. They rarely get the best colors. Just buy from the US and use a freight forwarder to handle the rest. It is the only way I have found to guarantee I get exactly what I want without the frustration of empty local shelves.
