Yukia Walker, CCBC Owner, struggled with her weight throughout childhood and into adulthood. When it came time to choose her own wedding dress, she encountered unexpected obstacles. Although armed with a generous budget, she soon realized the boutiques had little to no selection of plus-sized gowns and was horrified to see her size 14 frame stuffed into a size 10 gown. After being “laughed out” of a salon for asking for a size 16 gown, Yukia grew increasingly weary and eventually settled on a lackluster dress found at a discount bridal sale. After hearing other full-figured brides' horror stories, she and her sister Yuneisia decided enough was enough!! The fledgling Curvaceous Couture started in their Dad’s basement soon thereafter and the rest is history!
