Demi Moore, Nicole Kidman and Mindy Kaling stepped out with slimmed-down figures during awards season, a trend that one expert says could be due to a "combination of factors."
While some celebrities have credited popular weight-loss drugs for their physical transformations, Beverly Hills cosmetic dermatologist Dr. Jason Emer told Fox News Digital that a number of variables could be fueling the slender fad that has been sweeping the industry. "There has been a noticeable trend of slimmer appearances on the red carpet. This could be attributed to a combination of factors, including the influence of social media, changing beauty standards, and the accessibility of weight-loss medications."

"There has been a noticeable trend of slimmer appearances on the red carpet. This could be attributed to a combination of factors, including the influence of social media, changing beauty standards, and the accessibility of weight-loss medications," Emer said.
"Additionally, a focus on health and fitness, along with advances in aesthetic procedures, may also contribute to these trends," he added.
