RISE OF THE PHOENIX

**OCTAVIUS MARSION CELEBRATES 10 YEARS WITH THE POWERFUL “RISE OF THE PHOENIX” COLLECTION**

(Atlanta, GA – October 4,  2025) — A decade after igniting the fashion world with his viral debut collection of all white “Harlem Renaissance:–inspired tuxedos, each honoring legendary men of color, head designer Octavius Terry of the brand **OCTAVIUS MARSION** returns with a landmark moment: his 10-year anniversary collection, *“Rise of the Phoenix.”*

First unveiled on his birthday in 2015, Octavius’s debut collection redefined the narrative of men’s special occasion wear with bold, “Alternative Red Carpet” tuxedos named after icons like Cab Calloway and Cassius Clay. That collection marked the birth of a brand that dared to blend cultural homage with fearless design.

 Now, ten years later, *“Rise of the Phoenix”* captures not only the evolution of Octavius’ artistry, but the resilience of his personal journey. Like the mythological bird reborn from fire and ash, the collection symbolizes **rebirth, renewal, and transformation** after hardship. Each design tells a story of overcoming adversity, emerging from devastation stronger, wiser, and renewed.

This anniversary collection is more than fashion—it is a visual fable of perseverance, growth, and hope. Just as the phoenix rises, so too has Octavius  channeling trials and triumphs into a body of work through OCTAVIUS MARSION that reflects both his past and his fearless future.
