Celebrity stylist Harry Lambert met Harry Styles in 2014, and they’ve been working together ever since. Lambert, like Styles, isn’t afraid to push the boundaries of traditional menswear, leaning into joyful dressing and nostalgia-fueled fashion moments. And throughout his career — from styling Styles to Bad Bunny — Lambert’s secret has been sourcing second-hand, archival gems from eBay. Earlier this week, Lambert caught up with The Hollywood Reporter to break down what he’s eyeing, what he’s buying and how he’s incorporating eBay’s Spring/Summer 2026 Watchlist Trend Report into his closet (and the closets of his clients). For context, each season, the e-tailer launches what it calls a Watchlist, a data-backed style guide compiling the labels, items and aesthetics currently dominating the conversation (and search trends). The report aggregates consumer purchasing habits to pinpoint what’s most in demand in resale right now — essentially, what pieces are surging, selling and holding value on …

Published by Sam Flores

After an initial furor over jaw-dropping levels of ticket prices, global soccer fans may be starting to see some relief — at least in the resale market. Subscribe to read this story ad-free Get unlimited access to ad-free articles and exclusive content. Prices for more than 90% of World Cup matches are coming down on resale sites such as StubHub and SeatGeek, according to data tracked by analytics group TicketData.com. The trend was first reported by The Athletic. FIFA, the international soccer governing body, has sparked outcry for pricing tickets seemingly out of reach for many fans. To this day, lower-bowl seats for many group-stage matches cost more than $1,000. Now, as it releases a third batch of tickets, the average resale price is declining — by about 24% from a month ago and by about 8% over the past week. As of mid-May, the average resale price tracked by TicketData for “get in” tickets, which tend to be the lowest-priced option, for Group Stage matches is about $560, down from $720 a month ago. …

But uncertainty could also push more private home owners to right size, particularly as they approach retirement. This would add to the demand for larger HDB flats, particularly those in more desirable locations. This was what we observed with the Russia-Ukraine war in 2022, which saw a very small but growing number of HDB resale flats fetching at least S$1 million (US$787,340) and strong price growth for larger flats in non-mature towns such as Sembawang and Woodlands. That same year also saw the introduction of a 15-month wait-out period for former and current owners of private homes seeking to buy public housing flats. The restriction was aimed at cooling the HDB resale market for higher-priced flats, which was heating up partly due to demand from private property downgraders flush with capital. This underscored how periods of uncertainty can have implications for housing demand, especially as HDB flats are often seen as a more affordable option. WHAT IT MEANS FOR BUYERS AND SELLERS Despite heightened uncertainty and expectations of higher inflation, the HDB resale market is …

The move was done “in accordance with the United States’ support and solidarity for the Cuban people,” reads the new policy. The policy does not cover entities or persons connected to the Cuban military, intelligence services, or other government institutions, including entities on the U.S. State Department’s Cuba Restricted List. The Treasury’s Cuban Assets Control Regulations generally already authorize U.S. persons to export oil from the United States to Cuba, or to reexport U.S.-origin oil from a third country to Cuba, …

New York Introduces Bill to Cap Ticket Resale Prices

New York Introduces Bill to Cap Ticket Resale Prices

Published by Daniella Wilson

Ticket scalping could be facing major upheaval in New York, as a state senator is set to bring forward legislation that, if passed, would outlaw reselling concert tickets for more than they were originally purchased for. State senator James Skoufis will introduce several proposed amendments to New York’s exiting ticketing laws on Friday morning, the most notable of which focuses on capping resale prices to the original face value ticket price. “The total price at which a ticket reseller may sell or offer to sell a ticket to a live music concert or music performance may not exceed the total price of the initial ticket, inclusive of all fees and taxes, including those set forth in subdivision one of this section, in connection with the purchase of the initial ticket,” reads a draft of the bill Skoufis’ office shared with The Hollywood Reporter. The news comes a day after California also announced similar legislation Thursday, marking major potential changes in two of the biggest live music markets in the world. “The vast majority of the …
