Fat Beauty Contest filmography

Charlotte Coyle is a woman on a mission. She’s determined to organise an event that will revolutionise the way we look, think and feel about larger women.

After years of meeting prejudice as a plus-size model, Charlotte has decided to hold a beauty contest for big women in the heart of London’s glamorous West End. But with the clock ticking away, a budget of next to nothing and meeting fat bigotry at every turn, can Charlotte ever pull off her dream?

This dramatic and entertaining film lifts the lid on Charlotte’s amazing journey – from the Miss Plus size pageant in the heartlands of America to the chic of London Fashion Week – and introduces the women desperate to be crowned the biggest beauty queen.
