Explanation

The word 'skinny' in this context is being used to describe someone who is extremely thin in a way that appears unhealthy. The phrase 'malnourished and starved' provides important context that this is negative thinness, not fashionably thin. 'Unattractively thin' best captures this negative connotation.
