I've said this before, and I'll say it again: When it comes to determining which items from a new collection will or will not sell out, I'm the best person to consult. I'm not bragging—simply put, I have a long track record of predicting this sort of thing, and 99% of the time, I'm correct. So if you're on the fence about buying something from H&M, Zara, or J.Crew and want to be sure it's safe to sit on for a while, check out the list below—if you see it on here, don't wait. You aren't safe, and before you know it, you'll have missed out on the item you were craving, possibly for good.

If that's not the situation you find yourself in, but you still want to score some future sellout items before the masses find them and you have to fight off all of TikTok to score them, the forthcoming list might also be helpful for you. It's useful in many ways—why else would I have spent hours putting it together? Without further ado, scroll down to shop 36 new arrivals from Zara, H&M, and J.Crew that you'll be lucky to find in one month's time. Honestly, they could all very well be out of stock by then.
