If you’re a plus size person who loves contemporary pieces and cares about sustainability, then BAACAL from Cynthia Vincent should definitely be on your radar if it isn’t already!
You Oughta Know: Baacal By Cynthia Vincent
BAACAL, named after late actress Lauren Bacall, is a designer-led, high-end clothing brand for people who wear sizes 10-22. Designed by fashion industry veteran Cynthia Vincent, BAACAL is the perfect combo of luxury, style, and sustainability.
Vincent, has taken classic styles and revamped them for the modern, stylish woman. You know, those pieces that you’ll reach for every time you want to make a statement, for years to come!
It was incredibly difficult to find high quality investment pieces beyond a size 12. Knowing that the average American woman is a size 16, I wanted to create a brand for women like me, the true majority.

Sustainably Minded Plus Size Fashion
Created for the modern plus size fashion enthusiast, BAACAL is a modern luxury brand that cares about its eco-footprint. 80% of the brand’s limited-run collections are made in Los Angeles, using upcycled, vintage, and existing materials – everything from the fabric to the buttons and trim.
Inclusivity and sustainability are issues and values that are close to Vincent’s heart.
That alone is a reason to support this brand, but now we are especially pumped because Cynthia Vincent just announced that Yvette Nicole Brown is the new face of BAACAL!
Introducing The Stunning New Face Of BAACAL, Yvette Nicole Brown!
Yvette Nicole Brown, the powerhouse plus size actress, comedian, writer, and host, is the new muse for the luxury sustainable brand!
She is absolutely owning these looks! We are soooo excited to see what’s to come with Yvette as the brand’s face!
This partnership has actually been a long time coming! Cynthia had planned to have Yvette as the face of her collection last Spring 2020, and then Covid happened and turned those plans upside down– so she has been anxiously awaiting the right timing to share these images of Yvette Nicole Brown as the face of the brand.
Yvette Nicole Brown is one of the most beautiful humans I have had the pleasure of knowing. Covid may have interrupted the launch of what was sure to be a wonderful collection….but with YNB’s voice in our ear and in our hearts, we keep going.

I wanted to make a brand from my point of view; where I “fit” into fashion. I always found it challenging to find pieces that represented me and women like me.
