Kate Moss suffered 'awful' abuse after she was accused of glamorising an unhealthy body image.

The 50-year-old supermodel became part of the 'heroin chic' fashion trend in the mid 1990s with her 'waif'-like style and Kate has now confessed she was singled out for criticism because she was different to previous stars of the catwalk.

Speaking in new Disney Plus documentary 'In Vogue: The 90s', Kate explained: '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.'

Kate was just a teenager when she shot to fame as a model and one of her most famous shoots for Vogue magazine - which she posed in lingerie - helped cement her as part of the trend, but the pictures shot by photographer Corinne Day sparked a major backlash.
