The White Lotus breakout star Patrick Schwarzenegger and Abby Champion are bringing their wedding dreams to life – and they’re doing it in style with a steamy new campaign from SKIMS. The couple, who announced their engagement in December 2023, is featured in the brand’s latest Wedding Shop campaign, which dropped on March 17, ahead of the full collection’s release on March 20.
The campaign highlights the brand’s new collection of 24 limited-edition pieces, designed to make both brides and grooms feel their best on their big day. In keeping with the SKIMS’ signature style, the collection offers a sultry blend of seductive lingerie and sleek, modern silhouettes, and the photoshoot pushes those boundaries even further. With their undeniable chemistry and red-hot looks, Schwarzenegger and Champion are giving fans a sneak peek of what to expect from their wedding celebrations.
Sultry Fashion with a Personal Touch
The campaign features Champion in eye-catching lingerie, including a lacy three-piece set made up of the Scoop Corset, Butterfly Thong, and Hosiery Thigh High Stockings. Meanwhile, Schwarzenegger is seen in a range of outfits – from boxers and suits to some daring shots where he’s fully nude, strategically covered only by a bouquet or his fiancée. In some images, the actor is depicted in a cozy, intimate setting, seemingly naked except for a pair of socks, as he is artfully covered by Champion, who wears a simple cropped cami and shorts.

For Schwarzenegger, the shoot was an experience he’ll never forget. “It was such a fun experience,” he shared in a press release. “The more we shot, the more excited I got for our big day.” Despite the risqué nature of the photos, he praised SKIMS’ thoughtful designs for men, saying, “Grooms are usually expected to just show up, but SKIMS designed with the men in mind also.”
Champion echoed his sentiments, emphasizing how meaningful this time in their lives is. “This is such an exciting time for me,” she said. “I want to feel my best throughout it all. This collection is definitely going to be a must for our wedding celebrations and honeymoon.”
A Love Story for the Ages
This new campaign marks the second wedding-themed release from SKIMS, following the debut of a series with podcast host Alex Cooper and her husband, Matt Kaplan, in March 2024. Kim Kardashian, the chief creative officer and co-founder of SKIMS, has long been a fan of the couple’s dynamic, calling their love “beautiful.” In a statement, Kardashian said, “Patrick and Abby’s love is so beautiful, and it shows in every shot.”
