2. EXPOSED ZIPPERS: Daman says he’ll add a zipper to a piece if the fit isn’t right. “Only if it’s something minimal so I don’t toy with the design,” he says. This dress by Catherine Malandrino is $495. Elizabeth Lippman

4. TEXTURED TIGHTS: “Men love them. They’re really sexy and a nice take on a contemporary fishnet. For the winter, put a nude tight underneath to keep you warm,” Daman says. Jenny’s wearing a Yigal Azrouël coat, $1,092; Magaschoni scarf, $198; D&Y beanie, $20; DKNY tights, $20.

5. GRAY: “The new interpretation of gray is that it’s the new black, a neutral. It’s a no-brainer,” Daman says. Serena wears a Philip Lim coat, $650, and a Carlos Falchi “Brooke” bag, $4,995.

6. STRUCTURED: “This is very minimalist and linear. It has a Bauhaus architecture sense to it. Its lines could be those of the Chrysler Building, or the downtown Washington Square arch with the structure of the Upper East Side,” Daman says. Here, Blair wears a vintage Moschino jacket.
