Charli's collaboration with SKIMS comes during a high point in her career, following the success of her sixth album, brat, which has been instrumental in inspiring the brat trend. 

The trend is characterized by an edgy, carefree style, which Charli described in a BBC interview as, "Trashy. Just like a pack of cigs and, like, a Bic lighter. And, like, a strappy white top. With no bra. That's, like, kind of all you need."

Expressing her excitement about the partnership, Charli said, "SKIMS empowers people to feel confident in their own skin, which is the essence of Brat. I am excited to be working with a brand that understands that comfort and style don’t need to be compromised. Shooting with Petra for this campaign was a dream and I was so excited to get on set and wear these timeless, sexy pieces."

Kim Kardashian, SKIMS co-founder, also expressed her enthusiasm for the collaboration, stating, "Having Charli XCX as the face of our new SKIMS campaign is so exciting. She is a one-of-a-kind talent who has truly cemented herself as a megastar within music and beyond."

The SKIMS Cotton collections will be available for purchase on Wednesday, August 21, at SKIMS.com.

Amid the excitement surrounding her SKIMS campaign, Charli has also sparked plastic surgery rumours. Recent photos showing her lifted brow have led to speculation on social media, with some suggesting that the singer, whose real name is Charlotte Aitchinson, may have undergone cosmetic procedures, including a possible 'ponytail lift,' a non-surgical treatment that involves tightening the skin around the eyes.

Molly Bailey, a social media user and injector, speculated on Instagram, "Charli has mentioned tox treatments in the past, and her glassy skin speaks for itself. What seems to be the most noticeable change is her lifted brows and extra upper eyelid space." 

Bailey further speculated that Charli might have had a rhinoplasty and "a little" lip filler earlier in her life. In response, Charli shared on Instagram, "OMG I'm obsessed w this sh**."
