Skims Store Opening in Kansas City

0:00It's May 1st. You're listening to Kansas News today, AI-powered local news. Kim Kardashian's Schemes brand is set to open its first store in Kansas, or Missouri, right here in Kansas City. The shapewear company, launched back in 2019, filed permits for a spot at 405 Nichols Road on the country club Plaza. That location used to house soft surroundings, which shut down this year. Schemes offers more than just shapewear these days. They stock underwear, loungewear, swimsuits, menswear, and plenty more. This move fits with other fresh additions to the Plaza, like Aloeoga, local label Merza, and luxury consignment shop, Duget Co. Fans have been buzzing about the viral brand-hitting town. With 23 stores already across the country, it's a big get for local shoppers, craving that inclusive sizing and celeb back style. No official opening date yet on their site, and when reached out to, Schemes had nothing to share. The Plaza stayed quiet too on details.
