Fat Beauty Contest

Fat Beauty Contest

The contestants

Can you be big and beautiful? Size 18 model Charlotte Coyle thinks so, and is on a mission to prove it to the British fashion industry, challenging the notion that thin is everything.

Struggling to find work in the UK - even as a plus-size model - unless she drops to a size 16, Charlotte decides to organise a US-style fat beauty contest in the heart of London's West End for women of size 16 and above.

But Charlotte is new to planning events on this scale and it's not long before the huge scale of her task becomes all too clear... Can she pull off the gig of a lifetime or will she fall at the final hurdle?
