From Dune to Drawers: Timothée Chalamet Could Be the New Face (and Body) of SKIMS

Hollywood heartthrob meets Kardashian empire? That’s the buzz as Dune and Wonka star Timothée Chalamet is reportedly in serious talks to become the next face of SKIMS, Kim Kardashian’s billion-dollar shapewear brand. And guess who’s cheering him on from the sidelines (and probably texting Kim every five minutes)? None other than his girlfriend of two years, Kylie Jenner.

According to sources speaking to The U.S. Sun, this isn’t just a random celebrity-brand flirtation. Kim and Timothée Chalamet have gotten very close since he started dating Kylie, and now the family ties might be evolving into a full-blown business partnership. One insider dished, “Kim loves Timothée. She thinks he has great style, and his popularity will only increase.”

Let’s pause right there. It’s hard to argue with Kim on this one. The 29-year-old French-American actor has quickly become one of Hollywood’s most sought-after stars, with a built-in fanbase that spans red carpets and TikTok fan edits. Add to that his quirky, fashion-forward style and Gen Z appeal, and yeah, it’s a marketing dream.

Kylie Jenner Is Basically Begging Timothée Chalamet To Take This SKIMS Deal

So what’s the deal? Literally, it’s reportedly a multi-year offer worth $1.2 million to become a SKIMS ambassador. And while Timmy initially thought Kim was joking when she floated the idea earlier this year (same reaction we’d have if Kim Kardashian pitched us a modeling gig), it sounds like the Lady Bird star is warming up to it fast.

“Timothée loves SKIMS and the pieces Kim creates, so he is definitely interested,” the source revealed. “He has been talking with Kim a lot lately, wanting to know everything about the brand, its plans, and its future.”

The timing couldn’t be more strategic. Kim is prepping for a major new collection drop later this summer, and adding Chalamet to the SKIMS roster would be a power move — especially in Europe, where Timothée’s dual citizenship gives him serious cultural clout.

Of course, Kylie’s got her fingerprints all over this potential brand marriage. She’s reportedly been nudging her man to take the offer, urging him to level up his image and lock in more high-profile deals. “Kylie keeps telling him they need to become a power couple,” the source said. “She helps him see things differently, work on his image, and secure more deals.”

Timothée Chalamet’s Sister Reportedly Does Not Like Her Brother’s Relationship With Kylie Jenner

But not everyone’s thrilled with the direction Timmy’s heading. His sister, Pauline Chalamet, reportedly isn’t a fan of his relationship with Kylie, and insiders say their sibling bond is at an “all-time low.” Still, Chalamet seems all-in on Team Kardashian. “He loves the Kardashian family and believes Kim is one of the best entrepreneurs and businesswomen in the world,” said the insider.

And if you thought things couldn’t get any more Hollywood fairytale, there’s buzz that Chalamet is planning to propose to Kylie soon with a $300,000 ring crafted in Paris. That’s right — they’re house-hunting in Europe, building the brand, and apparently heading for the aisle. Luxury power couple loading.

So what happens next? Kim reportedly wants a final answer in the coming weeks. If it’s a yes, don’t be surprised if SKIMS suddenly drops a campaign that breaks the internet — again. With Kylie Jenner whispering in one ear and Kim hyping him up in the other, Timothée Chalamet might just become the next unlikely fashion icon…in shapewear.
