I recently discovered Beaucoo and it is different than any other fashion app I’ve seen on web or mobile previously. Essentially, it is Instagram for fashion addicts who also want to browse to find size specific inspiration and great outfit ideas.
Beaucoo is designed to help you get fashion inspiration based on size and style matches. Yep, that’s right… you put in your measurements, and the app finds other users with similar sizes and styles to your own, so you can not only get fashion inspiration, but you can see what different items look like on similar body types to simplify your shopping and avoid wasted time.
Haven’t we all found something gorgeous on a blogger or Insta but quickly groaned when we see it’s not available in our size, or quite frankly, we never know how that sweater dress will look on someone who isn’t a size zero? Ya, me too.
I absolutely love seeing women of all sizes sporting their unique fashion sense- yet often it’s difficult and frustrating to decide from a picture if that style will look good on someone your size. I have an athletic build and a big chest, so there are certain cuts and mainly, certain prints I just can’t wear. Beaucoo breaks out us out of the conformist fashion rut and opens up windows of possibilities.
Beaucoo is like the Instagram of fashion, but smarter- you can instantly get inspiration from ladies built to your size but also garner what you should buy next by seeing it on a real life person without the guesswork. I get so inspired to see women of all sizes modeling their fashion sense- it really puts a new opportunity to interact with fashion on a whole new level.
You can log in to your BeauCoo account online or via their iPhone app or Droid app
Why I love BeauCoo-
- Easy to browse for fashion inspiration on sizes that match yours online or on your phone.
- Get instant yay or nays when you’re in the dressing room about to buy.
- Connect with fellow fashion lovers with other ladies with similar tastes.
- You can double tap just like Insta to like photos and spread the love to other fashionistas.

BeauCoo is one of my new addictions, I’ve already been photo-crushing on some awesome fashionistas that get my style and do a fabulous job of playing with color. Some of my favorite retailers (like Modcloth) are great but it’s always a shot in the dark if their pieces are actually going to look good on anyone above size small. I loved being able to see dresses I’ve been pining over before waiting on reviewers to upload to Modcloth. Love. Love. Love.
Also, don’t you just want this dress??! ADORBS.
Seriously- this is the first app I’ve seen in awhile (aside from Pinterest) that INSPIRED me. Like, seriously, inspired me. There are plenty of fashion apps that are geared for shopping, plenty of photo apps geared for creativity, but not one that really simplifies shopping and creatively inspires both creators and users simultaneously.
Every time I use the BeauCoo app, I get so excited to see styles that look hot but I already know will look awesome on my body type- women on this app are so savvy and put together the best outfits! If you love Instagram, you are going to love BeauCoo.
Also, I think this video sums up why this app is so-darn-good:

So, have you used Beaucoo?
What apps are you addicted to?
Thanks for sharing this! Another app addiction to add to the list! I could spend hours looking at style on Pinterest, but ALL of the clothes i love are on teeny weeny ladies. Thanks!
Ya, nothing against skinny folks, but it’s really hard to gauge what a striped vneck sweater will look like on someone who is 34D like myself, or if that particular cut of jeans will do a body good!
