She spent last week partying with Kate Moss, who famously declared ‘nothing tastes as good as skinny feels’, but model Charli Howard is hitting back against the return of super-thin models to the catwalks.
In recent months, more waif-like women have appeared at top fashion shows, while models previously noted for their fuller figures have begun to lose weight. It prompted the New York Post to declare: ‘Bye-bye booty: Heroin chic is back.’
‘Being thin is not a f****** trend,’ raged Charli, 31, recalling how she used to go to ‘extreme lengths to be thin’. She revealed that as a consequence of her restricted diet her hair fell out, her gums bled and she couldn’t breathe while walking upstairs. Even so, fashion bookers told her she wasn’t thin enough.
Among the models sparking debate about heroin chic is Bella Hadid. But Charli, attending Diet Coke’s 40th anniversary party, adds: ‘Women like Bella are like athletes – they’re a rarity. As much as she is beautiful, most women do not look like her.’

Aristo magician Archie Manners was branded a threat to national security after organising a stunt that saw a bunch of professional athletes running a half-marathon inside Terminal 5 at Heathrow.
The runners booked cheap flights and went through security, but then changed into lycra and set off around the concourses.
Archie, 29, posted a video of the bizarre event but received a message from airport officials threatening police action.
Happily, they saw the funny side after Archie agreed to blur out sections showing the airport’s more sensitive areas.
