Fashion and art seasons highlight new gallery shows and Balenciaga accessories

The autumn fashion and art seasons are highlighted by significant developments in both the gallery and designer accessory sectors. In New York, notable art exhibitions include Lee Bul’s ‘The Anatomy of Every Setting Sun’ at Hauser & Wirth, which explores technology and nature, and Anthony McCall’s ‘Solid Light’ at Sean Kelly.

In the fashion world, Balenciaga has introduced the Hourglass Avenue Bag as part of Pierpaolo Piccioli’s sophomore collection. A modern evolution of the brand’s signature silhouette, the new bag features softer leather, a hinged handle, and a magnetic-lock closure. The accessory has already gained visibility among high-profile figures such as Demi Moore, Cynthia Erivo, and Lily Collins.
