British Vogue's editor says skinny models are back 'in', partly fuelled by weight loss drug Ozempic.

The fashion industry "should be concerned" by a trend back to using more skinny models, the editorial director of British Vogue has said.

"We're in this moment where we're seeing the pendulum sort of swing back to skinny being 'in' and often these things are treated like a trend and we don't want them to be." Nnadi said she thought it was "important that all bodies are represented" in fashion, adding that it was an issue she and her colleagues were mindful of.

Referring to last season's fashion weeks, where designers showcase their new collections, Nnadi said: "I didn't think there was enough representation as far as body diversity."Hopefully the season will be a wake-up call and it won't be that we see that kind of negative trend that we see that progress."
