Who started the trend of women looking drug addicted , skinny and emaciated ?

Question

I ask because in my fathers day women looked much different then today - they had wide hips , nice legs and healthy looking . Today they look much different so I wonder who started this trend ?

Answer 1

Nico predates them all. She had the highest visibility of what was later called in the 1980s the "waif models", such as Kate Moss, who modeled for Calvin Klein.

Nico's thin figure was probably helped due to her drug addiction, and her modeling career.

More people remember Twiggy than Nico, but Nico was the starting point for glamorizing the rail thin look.

Marianne Faithful was another high profile model/actress/singer who promoted the ultra thin look, but NICO was really the first.

Later in Hollywood, Audrey Hepburn was the thinnest of the thin. Even back when she was doing movies like "Breakfast At Tiffany's" other actors would privately mock her aversion to eating (which kept her thin). Mia Farrow came next, and her hollow eyes look made her perfect for parts like "Rosemary's Baby".

Answer 2

While it was Twiggy and others who started the trend, it is the empty-headed females who have continued it and taken it where no one has gone before...and the males who have a fixation on young girls. You notice that while men like the skinny look, they want you to have humongous boobs and a plumpy backside....Just no hips and thighs, thank you.
Women are foolish.


A woman should look like a woman....

Answer 3

Mia Farrow was a big contributer back in the late 60's. Hollywood and America went crazy for her look. A lot of english actresses were also skinny and sick looking.

Answer 4

I think it sort of started in the 60s with the Mod look. Twiggy was the original waif.

Twiggy, in the 60's.
