Overview

• The show opened with 35 street-cast models kneeling in white tees and shorts made in partnership with the ACLU, each shirt bearing the message “The ACLU dares to create a more perfect union—beyond one person, party, or side,” as an acoustic version of “California Dreamin’” played to evoke detainee imagery.
• Named after his hometown of Huron, California, the collection reflects Chavarria’s response to recent ICE raids and the deportation of more than 200 Venezuelan migrants to El Salvador’s CECOT prison.
• The color palette—screaming cerulean, Pepto pink, pale gray, butter yellow and uniform green—draws on factory uniforms in oppressive regimes while subverting traditional luxury aesthetics.
• Mexican singer-songwriter Vivir Quintana performed live during the presentation to reinforce the show’s narrative on cultural erasure and immigration policy.
• Chavarria has vowed to maintain activism in his brand, arguing that political neutrality speaks louder than silence, as figures like Salvadoran president Nayib Bukele publicly mock his runway statements.
