Lottie Moss has blasted the ‘heroin chic’ aesthetic that was made famous by her supermodel sister.
The Nineties trend that made Kate Moss famous: pale skin, slicked-back hair and – infamously – an extremely thin physique, has been making a comeback in recent years.
Yet Lottie – who has just resolved a three-year feud with her sibling– revealed it’s not a trend she’d be embracing as she called out for more ‘body positivity’.
Speaking on her podcast Dream On, the 26-year-old model mused: ‘This heroin chic trend right now coming back, which is something that happened in the Nineties, we should not be going back there.
‘This should not be a trend right now… Where did the body positivity go?’

Lottie – who looked happy and healthy when she attended the 4th and Reckless fashion show on Thursday – added: ‘I don’t understand because we were doing so well.
‘The curvy girls were eating and it was becoming more of a trend to be curvier and sexy and now it’s gone back in time to this heroin chic, not eating, being super, super thin.
‘And obviously if that’s your body type and you are naturally very thin then this excludes you.
‘But just be happy with your weight and happy you have a body that functions and works instead of putting it through something like that.
‘It can be so detrimental to your body in the future.’
Lottie’s comments come after Kate revealed the abuse she would receive because of her look, saying people would approach her in the street and accuse her of promoting eating disorders.
She told a new Disney+ documentary: ‘Parents would come up to me and say, “My daughter’s anorexic”. It was awful.
‘I think because I was just skinny, and people weren’t used to seeing skinny. But if I’d been more buxom, it wouldn’t have been such a big deal. It’s just that my body shape was different from the models before me.’
Lottie’s relationship with Kate became fractured after she started to model for OnlyFans but they have recently rekindled, celebrating their father’s 80th birthday together last week
Elsewhere in the chat, Lottie revealed that she had to be hospitalised after she overdosed on Ozempic.
The model was violently ill, suffering a seizure and severe dehydration after taking the drug when she weighed around 60kg – just 9stone.
She said she would rather ‘die’ than use Ozempic again, which is meant to treat the obese or diabetics and has suffered global shortages.
Lottie recalled having the seizure, which was caused by severe dehydration, and said her face and hands clenching up was one of the ‘scariest’ experiences she has ever endured.
She said there were, ‘small things I wish I’d known before taking it’ and revealed her weight plummeted to around 53kg in a few weeks.
After being seen by medical professionals, Lottie learned the dosage of Ozempic she was injecting into her leg should be prescribed to someone weighing at least 100 kilos – nearly double her size.
Lottie explained: ‘A few months ago, I was not feeling happy about my weight, I had a friend, and she could get it for me.
‘It was below board, from a doctor, but it wasn’t like you go into a doctor’s office and he prescribes it for you, takes your blood pressure, and takes tests, which is what you need when you go on something like Ozempic.
‘At the end of the day it is a medication, it is dangerous and really meant for weight loss of people of a very large size.
‘When I was taking it, the amount that I was taking was meant for people who are 100 kilos and over and I’m in the 50s range.’
Lottie recently revealed she had a seizure during an emergency trip to the hospital after she took a high dosage of Ozempic for two weeks, causing her to be violently ill
Lottie continued: ‘It’s these small things I wish I’d known before taking it. But I took it, you inject it into your leg, and it was the worst decision I ever made.
‘This is a warning to everyone. Please, if you’re thinking of taking it, do not take it, it’s so not worth it.’
The OnlyFans star described the severe side effects she suffered as a result of taking the drug such as vomiting, losing the colour in her face, and dramatically dropping in weight.
Lottie said she weighed approximately 60 kilos before she dropped to 57 following her first dose and was 53 kilos at her lowest, which is just over eight stone.
