Paloma Elsesser, Amelia Gray and Sevdaliza Walk Willy Chavarria’s Runway
From the heart of Fresno to the streets of Paris.
Willy Chavarria presents his Spring/Summer 2026 collection at Paris Fashion Week.
The star-studded runwayshow featured fashion’s favorite names like models Amelia Gray and Paloma Elsesser, musician Sevdaliza, Becky G and athlete Stefon Diggs (currently dating Cardi B).
As always, Chavarria’s Chicano roots were on full display. On June 20, he announced that the show’s title was “HURON,” paying homage to his hometown in Fresno County. Shortly after, he began his second round of casting throughout the city. The casting call was open to people of all genders — as long as they were over 5’10”. Little did we know that there would be a number of celebrities in attendance, too.
His sophomore Paris show resembled a walk through the California natives’ neighborhood. Zoot suits, sharp cuts and striking hats juxtaposed with elevated workwear and graphic T-shirts that read “WILLY.” In Chavarria’s world, class doesn’t determine style.
The label also introduced the next phase of its adidas collab, debuting several new silhouettes. Elsewhere, Sevdaliza’s c-nty walk through the venue aligned with a brand new, sultry single. Titled “Messiah,” it dropped the same day with a transcendental music video directed by Tanu Muino.
