  Why should high fashion be reserved for women smaller than a size 14?  Wilbur doesn't think it should.  That is why he is launching his eponymous line of bold, modern, and classic day-to-evening dresses for the curvy fashionista this September.  With the introduction of this new collection he's dubbed The SuperWoman, Wilbur is seeking to "reshape" the ideal of beauty in the fashion industry.  Having felt like a fashion outsider himself when he first founded his company over 12 years ago, Wilbur identifies with his new customer.  The designer says, "All of us have value and we each have a compelling story to share." Wilbur shares some of his stories which include his triumphs and disappointments in a blog titled " I Am Fabulous - A BlackFashionDude's Odyssey" on blogspot.  He is currently writing his first book which will be based on the blog.  Find out more about Wilbur's adventures on facebook at www.facebook.com/sortakinda or on the company's website www.skwilbur.com.
