They were joined by a former state prison director, Moore’s trial judge, his son and daughter, a half-dozen childhood friends and several pastors.

☆ How Hermès is bucking the global luxury slowdown

French luxury company Hermès has spent nearly 200 years emphasizing quality, scarcity and desirability — a strategy that's helped it dominate the luxury sector, even over its much larger rivals. Analysts say the Birkin and the Kelly account for between 25% and 28% of Hermès' total revenue. For fiscal year 2023 Hermès reported the fourth-highest revenue total of the major luxury fashion brands, behind LVMH , Richemont and Kering . In its most recent quarter, Hermès posted double-digit revenue growth while competitors LVMH and Kering reported sharper-than-expected declines in sales. Globally, many luxury consumers have pulled back on spending, particularly aspirational buyers in 2023 and 2024.

The one thing spookier than a bad first date is seeing your phone light up with a text asking for a second. The "easy way out" of delivering the uncomfortable news that you don't want to meet up again is to not respond, also known as ghosting, says Grace Lee, a New York City-based dating coach and founder of A Good First Date. But if the person took the time to see you in person, they probably deserve an actual response. "If someone outright asks you if you want to go on a second date and you don't want to I think ghosting is the worst way to respond because the other person has really put themselves out there," she says. Here's what to say if you aren't interested in continuing a courtship.
