Zee appeared on "Good Morning America" today with Prajje, one of the designers he has helped.

But Zee isn't just about helping designers. He's got some tips for you as well.

Joe Zee's Five Fall Fashion Must-Haves

1. A statement coat. If it's your one investment piece, it should definitely be a coat, one that you can throw on every day and change your look.
2. A great pants suit. Zee has seen a lot of different versions. And you can break it up - wear the jacket with jeans, or the pants with different tops.
3. A peplum top. It gives an elegant silhouette, and is flattering on most people.
4. A great pair of flat boots. Ryan boots look great with skirts and pants, and they're functional all day.
5. An "it" bag. This kind of bag is making a comeback. Zee loves a tote.
