Your Social Calendar This Fall…

Summer’s sweaty social calendar typically leaves something to be desired, hence our decision to start penciling in fall’s festivities stat. Here’s a quick guide to the upcoming exhibitions currently getting our knickers in a twist. Launching September 8 at Antwerp’s MoMu, Stephen Jones & the Accent of Fashion marks the 30th anniversary of the milliner’s namesake house, featuring over 120 items including wares made for John Galliano, Marc Jacobs, Jean Paul Gaultier and Comme des Garçons. Speaking of cult labels, come September 18, The Museum at FIT’s Japan Fashion Now spotlights Undercover’s Jun Takahashi and goth-punk-lolita pioneer h.NAOTO, examining the country’s revolutionary sartorial roots in avant-garde and street style. Finally, on November 19, Balenciaga: Spanish Master bows at New York’s Queen Sofía Spanish Institute. Culled from the couturier’s nearly 30-year mid-century prime, the 60-some featured garments are lovingly curated by Vogue’s Hamish Bowles. Mark them in your iCal!
