Over the course of the last few years, designer Willy Chavarria has made a name for himself as a bold new voice in fashion. The Mexican American designer curates his eponymous label around empowerment, particularly focusing on identity and fashion as an extension of personhood.
"Growing up mixed race in a Mexican American environment, mostly Mexicans, it was immigrants who were living in the town that I grew up in, and given the fact that my parents had met after desegregation, I was always very aware of the politics behind race. So when I started my own label — and just living my life — I felt it was very important to share that awareness with others, and I've incorporated the need for equality and the need for recognition of Latino empowerment in all my work," Chavarria told WWD in September 2024 .
