The article reports that New York–based Vandale Industries, a long-established leader in intimate apparel and activewear, has completed a strategic acquisition of the luxury lifestyle brand SKIN Worldwide. Vandale, founded in 1982 and known for partnering with major fashion names, is bringing Skin into its portfolio to strengthen its footprint in the luxury comfort, intimate, lounge and wellness categories by combining its operational scale with Skin’s reputation.

Skin Worldwide, founded in 2003 and celebrated for minimalist silhouettes and pieces that feel like a “second skin,” has built a loyal international following for its organic, comfort-focused approach to intimates and loungewear. Vandale’s leadership says the acquisition allows the brand to expand reach and scale while maintaining the “quiet luxury” that distinguishes Skin’s design identity. Vandale plans a refreshed brand presence and expanded product offerings, with new collections expected to debut in Spring 2026 as part of a broader effort to nurture growth in the luxury lifestyle sector.
