Nicola (ニコラ, Nikora, stylized in all lowercase letters) is a fashion magazine published in Japan by Shinchosha.

Nicola was first published in 1997 and covers teen fashion trends, hair and make-up, and lifestyles.

This audition draws thousands of young girls from all over Japan every year.

Nicomos are supposed to leave the magazine before they enter second grade of high school.

In 2006, the magazine introduced a version targeted at elementary school students called Nico-Petit (ニコ★プチ, Nikopuchi).
