Recently, a massive 60-foot inflatable statue of Kim Kardashian landed in the centre of Times Square in New York City, enthralling onlookers and generating a lot of conversation. Kardashian’s well-known shape wear company, SKIMS, is launching its newest swimwear line with this eye-catching display part of its marketing campaign. 

The Times Square Takeover by SKIMS

The enormous inflatable figure wearing the brand’s new swim line—the triangle top and tanga bottoms in a tide hue—is part of the SKIMS pop-up experience, which is located on 43rd Street between Broadway and Seventh Avenue. The installation will provide visitors with an immersive look into SKIMS’s most recent offerings and will be on display today and tomorrow.

Kim Kardashian told TimeOut that she loves how the new SKIMS swim collection offers something for everyone, whether for a vacation or a beach day, emphasising that it’s all about feeling confident and amazing in what you wear.

Public Reaction To This Marketing Strategy

The tall inflatable Kim Kardashian’s surprising emergence has amused and shocked onlookers. Videos posted on social media depict a range of responses from excitement to perplexity as onlookers encounter the massive figure. Some social media users think this behaviour is unhinged and embarrassing, but others view it as a bold and effective marketing strategy.

This striking exhibit demonstrates the innovative marketing techniques SKIMS employs to engage the public and generate enthusiasm for its products. High-profile marketing like this is crucial to the brand’s ongoing product line expansion and to maintain its reputation in the fiercely competitive fashion industry.

SKIMS has organised a spring celebration at Bloomingdale’s on 59th Street on March 8 in addition to the Times Square display. To further improve the brand’s interaction with its audience, attendees will be able to browse the new collection, savour free ice cream bars, and get branded hair clips with every purchase.
