Kim Kardashian mixed 'teabags in a tub' to dye her shapewear

Kim Kardashian admits she highlighted personal expereince to design SKIMS.

The 41-year-old, who was invited to speak at the 2023 TIME100 Summit on Tuesday admitted she used to die her shape wear on tea bags.

She began: "It was filling the gap of something that didn't exist in the marketplace.

"For me, I was just looking for a solution to the fact that I love to wear shapewear and there wasn't a colour tone that fit my skin tone, let alone most of my friends," she told host Poppy Harlow.

"There was either a super light nude, which was a more pale colour and then the colour black. There was really nothing in between.

Kim confessed: "So I would take coffee and tea bags and I would put them in the sink or the bathtub and put shapewear in there."

"I would cut them all up because you know, the cuts weren't right and I found one of my original ones, I always kept them, and it was just so funny to look back and see what I would try to do," she recalled.
