Thankfully, the show’s creator, Joshua Safran, gave Daman and his team plenty of time to bring the look to life—as well as for the many other pairs of friends who show up to the party dressed we pairs, after Julien and Zoya’s concept gets leaked. “Josh gave us a good heads up so we had plenty of time to be able to do it, but it’s always up against the clock,” says Daman. “Still, it was amazing to be able to see it come to life.” For the finishing touch of the Beyoncé-inspired look, Daman reconnected with hair accessories designer Jennifer Behr, with whom he most famously collaborated on the headbands for Blair Waldorf in the original series, to craft a crystal-embellished veil. “She was always my go-to headband person, so it just seemed natural to reach out to her,” Daman adds.
With the theme of the party being “New York legends,” the task wasn’t just about recreating Beyoncé and Solange’s looks either. As one of the show’s most elaborate setpieces yet, there were also hundreds of extras to dress—and, of course, Billy Porter in a scene-stealing cameo performing “I Put a Spell on You.” “I came up with a list of like a hundred New York legends, everyone from Ella Fitzgerald and Frank Sinatra to Cardi B and Lady Gaga,” says Daman. “There were so many different references we got to play with.” (Eagle-eyed viewers will spot a particularly impressive interpretation of Gaga’s four-in-one Brandon Maxwell outfit she wore to the 2019 camp-themed Met gala.)
And given both Daman and Safran’s experience working on the original Gossip Girl series, they couldn’t resist a more literal fashion tribute to the original. That came by way of Julien’s rivals at a neighboring school, who show up to the party in looks straight out of the original Gossip Girl as an homage to their predecessors on the Upper East Side teen social scene. “To have those pop back up was really incredible,” says Daman. “Originally in the script, it was just written that they were wearing two of Serena and Blair’s most iconic looks. So that was something that we worked with Josh, to figure out like what would be the most iconic moments for us to recreate.”
