ATLANTA, March 2, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Worldly, a creative house curated by Jason Harvey to empower design talent of color, is excited to announce the launch of its first-ever collaboration with designer John Byrd-Olivieri. Entitled "Eden on Hush", the new collection is a rich blend of Harvey's and Byrd-Olivieri's style of avant-garde cirque, streetwear, theatrical costumes, and grand classicism.
Launching March 23, 2022 in Atlanta, GA; a city known for its creative influence in music, film, and now fashion, Worldly embodies the celebration of culture, empowerment, and society and also serves as a house to uplift, mentor, and propel young design talent while building a support system for the next generation of black and brown fashion designers. Worldly is pushing fashion forward with making a conscious effort to create a space for talented designers who may lack the necessary resources to scale their brand.
With a commitment to spearhead diversity in the fashion industry, Harvey is focused on building partnerships with his community to make brands developed under the Worldly umbrella accessible to a wider audience. Expanding beyond "just" fashion, the brand philosophy is based on positive change and fashion's influence on the world all of which is impactful, thoughtful and connected.
"Worldly looks to embrace the fashion industry while creating an intersection between diversity, spirituality, and empowerment," stated Harvey, CEO and Founder of Worldly. "There's a lot of creativity that runs within the rich DNA of black and brown talent. Therefore, I am creating a house that provides a support system for talent who may not have the necessary resources to scale their business to the next level."
Designed by Harvey and Byrd-Oliveiri, "Eden on Hush" is a collection of 20-25 looks and will exemplify fine craftsmanship and exemplary tailoring. Paradoxically, it is both designers' inspiration from their vibrant heritage that allows them to conjure up the innovation that defines their expression of art and fashion in this manner today.
The debut collection under Worldly will feature a variation of jewel tone hues with culturally-infused silhouettes of bold oversized sets, dramatic wide-leg pants, alluring yet classic silk dresses, high-end construction, and statement-making outerwear .
"Eden on Hush" is made to order and will be available for purchase on http://www.hellaworldly.com beginning March 23rd.

ABOUT JASON HARVEY
Growing up in Memphis, Tennessee, Jason Harvey was inspired by the strains of blues, soul, and rock 'n' roll. His earnest and humble roots were shaped by his family, a far cry from the reflection of a high-octane maximalism life that's often represented in public. Spending time at Morehouse College shined a light on Black power coming from within; not as something that was granted to him by someone else. Harvey strongly believes that art is about offering people a way to express their identity, something he feels is more important today than ever before. He has done so in his career thus far, with his steep career trajectory paved with opportunities as creative director, producer, designer, and artist. Some of his most notable endeavors include producing the YouTube children's show, "Grans," and co-creating "Yevrah" luxury footwear that was showcased at Art Basel in Miami, FL.
