Wedding style looks good on Patrick Schwarzenegger and Abby Champion!
The White Lotus star, 31, and the supermodel, 27, are on their way to the altar, but before then, they’re playing the role of groom and bride with SKIMS.
On March 17, the clothing brand launched a new Wedding Shop campaign starring the couple, who announced their engagement in December 2023.
Featuring 24 limited-edition pieces, the new line (officially out March 20) is seductive and steamy and the photos are that — and more.
Many of the snapshots showcase Champion in sexy lingerie (like a lacy three-piece look featuring the Scoop Corset, Butterfly Thong and Hosiery Thigh High Stockings) and Schwarzenegger in boxers, a suit — and in certain pics, nothing.
That’s right, for the campaign the actor committed to looking sexy by stripping down to seemingly nothing, as one photo shows him posing with nothing on and a bouquet covering his crotch. Even for a photo with a cozier vibe, he appears to be naked (minus socks) but strategically covered by Champion, who’s outfitted in a cropped cami and shorts.
In a press release, Schwarzenegger said he had “such a fun experience” on set and that it only made him “more excited for our big day.” Plus, despite him wearing close to nothing for the shoot, he gushed over SKIMS’ wedding attire for men, sharing: “Grooms are usually expected to just show up, but SKIMS designed with the men in mind also.”
Champion added: “This is such an exciting time in my life, and I want to feel my best throughout it all,” nothing that that the collection is definitely going to be a must for their wedding celebrations and honeymoon.
This is the second wedding-inspired campaign coming from the brand following the series debut’ in March 2024 with Alex Cooper and her husband, Matt Kaplan.
Kim Kardashian, chief creative officer and co-founder of SKIMS, shared in a press release: “Patrick and Abby’s love is so beautiful, and it shows in every shot.”

Since their relationship started 10 years ago, Schwarzenegger and Champion have been head over heels for one another.
Speaking to PEOPLE for the February digital cover, he opened up about their decade-long relationship and how their romance has blossomed over time.
“I think that when we first met, there was obviously an attraction — physical attraction — and I thought she was the most beautiful girl that I had seen and had met,” he said. “And [I] was interested in hanging out and going out on dates.”

Reflecting on meeting when they were much younger, Schwarzenegger added that, as they’ve gotten older, he “continuously fell in love with her more and more, with the kind of human that she was becoming and that the relationship was becoming.”
“I think one of the best things that we’ve had is that we’ve grown a lot together and we’ve grown our personal relationships, but also our careers together,” he said. “And it’s been kind of fun to climb that journey as one.”
