Willy Chavarria Spring/Summer 2026
by Adriano Batista
Willy Chavarria’s Spring/Summer 2026 runway show was a protest, a love letter, and a reclamation of dignity. From the first moment, when 35 men stood in white ACLU T-shirts, the message was clear: this is about people whose humanity is too often denied. The stark simplicity of those shirts, referencing the brutal profiling in Salvadoran prisons, set the tone. Fashion, for Chavarria, is about truth.
“I’m not interested in luxury as a symbol of privilege,” he says. “I’m interested in luxury as a symbol of truth in one’s own character.” That truth runs through every piece in this collection. The Italian-milled fabrics, the impeccable tailoring, the defiant bursts of color (papaya, red hot, Bourdin blue) all speak to resilience and joy. This is clothing as identity, as armor, as celebration.
Chavarria’s own story, growing up in Huron, California, now shaping fashion in New York and Paris, echoes in the clothes. The silhouettes are sharp but fluid, playing with tradition while refusing to be confined by it.
This season also marks Chavarria’s first full accessories line, built around the signature “W” strap detail. Bolero bags, oversized clutches, and totes come in rich, rebellious hues, crafted from Italian leathers so lush they feel like a challenge. Even the adidas collaboration evolves, with new running silhouettes like the Megaride AG and the Chavarria Superstar, blending streetwear edge with high-fashion rigor.
This is fashion for the immigrant, the outsider. It’s for anyone who’s been told they don’t belong.
