Willy Chavarria Menswear S/S 2026 Paris

[Norden]

The fits are off for most of these looks. It’s a disservice to the guys and girls on the streets he’s inspired by, they’re much more invested in this look. This show needs more ambition, just showing in Paris, with all its challenges is not enough. The clothes and styling are bellow par.

Bored of this performative useless skits. Like, the models sitted all around his horrible logo? Give me a break.

He’s considered a “Next-Gen New York Designer” BTW

As they should. If he’s all about his message it would have been cleared before or something where it’s sending money back but just like this seasons show it’s all performative bs. I wanted to see it at the beginning as more but after the $300 dirty underwear it became evident this is all completely devoid of depth and borderline if not already offensive. Also since adding Carlos the end result has become even more clownish than before.

It’s what New York deserves

There will always be grifters like him successfully fooling the fashion sheep into believing that he’s somewhat important— because to criticize his exploitation of performative identity/gender/race politics, while hustling the most basic merch at designer prices, makes you racist/homophobic/misogynist etc etc. He knows how to work the system. There was Kerby Jean-Raymond before him, and there will absolutely be another opportunist hustler in the waiting right now, after them. These types' business strategy seems to exist to get that Adidas corporations payday. They are the fashion equivalent of the worst DEI/EBT/Section 8 abusers. That he’s pushing 60 and still only relies on these performative juvenile aesthetics rather than seasoned, experienced and skilled designs, tells everyone all they need to now about his race-grifting ways. But fashion people have never been that bright anyway— and combined with next to nothing standards these days, not only New York-- but fashion, deserves him (… him and Paloma…).

I’d like to think that Willy’s brand is here in a twisted way as a reminder to others what the bottommost of the barrel looks like, and to always aim just a tad higher.
