A Magazine Curated By N°28
A Magazine Curated By is proud to announce that our 28th issue has been curated by WILLY CHAVARRIA, the American designer who marks a decade of his namesake label this year.
This new issue follows our recent commemorative edition A Magazine Curated By: 2000–2004 / 2025 which revisited the legacies of our 32 past curators. While that issue celebrates our past, this one looks at the present and takes a deliberate stance on theworld we live in today.
At a moment of global unrest and growing demands for justice and inclusion, it is urgent to reaffirm that fashion is political. A Magazine Curated By Willy Chavarria is not only a political gesture — but also a human one. It honours the power of storytelling, the necessity of representation and the emotional truths that connect us.
Growing up in a Mexican-American home in Huron, California, Willy draws from the visual language of urban and rural working class Chicano communities in the state’s Central Valley. He explores Latin-American aesthetic heritage, while forging a cultural dialogue beyond fashion and into activism. Willy is unafraid to delve into the intimate themes closest to his heart: identity, human dignity and the power of community.
The issue opens with a photo series by Carlos Jaramillo, capturing the migrant farming town where Willy’s journey began. From there, the issue moves through a series of deeply personal contributions: tributes to legends Antonio Lopez and Juan Ramos by Drake Carr, a visual essay by Gwenaelle Tranoy and Julie Ragolia on queer parenthood with text by artist Geraldine Barón, a roundtable conversation about resistance with the Latino Caucus from HIV/AIDS activist group ACT UP 35 years after their founding, a photography series of Peruvian traditional dances by Diego Bendezu, Willy’s take on vintage advertising with his close collaborator art director Jess Cuevas with photography by Asato Iida, stylist Carlos Nazario’s first series of photographs which explores modern Latino masculinity, and photographer Stefan Ruiz as well as journalist Paola Ramos both question the American political and social system in their respective stories. Finally, the issue is anchored with a cinematically inspired fashion story styled by Patti Wilson and lensed by John Yuyi.
Closing the publication is a dialogue on faith and meaning between Willy Chavarria and Bishop Mariann Budde, whose sermon at the most recent American presidential inauguration was heard the world over. In a moving exchange on compassion and love, their conversation underscores the essence of the issue and its title: Love Commandments.
