Chatting with Willy Chavarria After His Paris Show

Having completed the Men's Spring/Summer 2026 show circuit in Milan and Paris, James Fallon, WWD chief content officer, and Alex Badia, WWD style director, touch on the season's latest news and fashion direction, filmed live at the Four Seasons Hotel Georges V Paris.  They then sat down for a heartfelt chat with Mexican-American designer Willy Chavarria, fresh off his second show ever in Paris. Chavarria gets real about his collection, social activism, family, the savage nature of the business itself, and the impact he hopes to leave upon it. "My position in fashion is very much about, quite honestly, changing the game," said Chavarria. "People feel and think so differently, and it's moving so fast that we have to start to change. So many of us are afraid of that change, but I think it's imperative, and I hope to be a leader in that." Watch the full video on WWD: Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
