Law Roach is “really excited” to get back to work. The renowned stylist has dressed numerous A-list celebrities throughout his career, including Celine Dion, Ariana Grande, and Anya Taylor-Joy.
The 46-year-old stylist announced he was retiring, apart from his work with Zendaya, back in 2023, but he has a new muse in ‘Grown-ish’ star Ryan Destiny and was thrilled to be back at the Fashion Trust Awards in Los Angeles earlier this week. The Fashion Trust Awards celebrates emerging designers and has become an important platform in the fashion industry since its inception.
“Tonight is my big debut, back into styling, and Ryan’s my date and my new muse,” he told E! News. “I’m really excited, and the Fashion Trust Awards is a good place to debut and let everyone know that I’m back.” Roach’s styling career spans over a decade, during which he has helped shape some of Hollywood’s most iconic red carpet moments.
Law also heaped praise on Sam Woolf, who he once mentored in the fashion world, and his work with Doechii, in particular her recent looks at Paris Fashion Week. Doechii has quickly become one of the music industry’s most fashion-forward artists, garnering attention for her boundary-pushing ensembles.
“I think everybody’s in love with Doechii right now. I think that Doechii is doing a really good job of playing all these characters and making us fall in love with not just the music, but her personal style,” he said. “I have to give a shout out to her stylist, Sam Woolf, who worked for me years and years ago. I love seeing my children go out into the world, into the wild, and succeed.” Woolf has established himself as an in-demand stylist after learning under Roach’s guidance.
Law confirmed he will be working with Zendaya on finding her wedding dress though he thinks it will be some time before she and Tom Holland tie the knot. The couple has been dating since they met on the set of “Spider-Man: Homecoming.”
“It’s far away. They’re both making a bunch of movies this year, and there’s a lot of premieres next year, so you’ll see a lot of red carpets. So, you know, I’m, I’m resting up for 2026,” he said. Zendaya has been Roach’s most notable client, with their collaboration producing numerous memorable fashion moments over the years.
The stylist will be working with the ‘Euphoria’ actress for the upcoming Met Gala but they will be “doing their own thing” and walking separately this year. The Met Gala, fashion’s biggest night, will take place at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
Meanwhile, Ryan is excited to be working with the acclaimed stylist. The actress has been making waves in Hollywood since her breakout role in “Star” and continues to develop her career in both acting and music.
“I’m just very, very happy and excited for what we are going to do. I definitely trust him, and I think it’s something that we are learning with each other, figuring things out, and this is really fun. He’s the best of the best,” she told E! News. Destiny’s collaboration with Roach signals a promising new chapter for both the actress and the stylist.
Law previously insisted he was tired of the “politics” of the fashion industry. His candid comments about the industry have made him a voice for change in fashion circles.
“If this business was just about the clothes I would do it for the rest of my life but unfortunately it’s not! The politics, the lies and false narratives finally got me! You win … I’m out,” he announced his retirement on Instagram in March 2023. His retirement announcement shocked the fashion world, as Roach had become one of the most influential stylists in the industry.
Roach’s return to styling represents not just a personal comeback but also highlights the evolving nature of the fashion industry. His influence extends beyond styling, as he has served as a judge on “America’s Next Top Model” and has been recognized with numerous industry accolades throughout his career.
Industry insiders have welcomed his return, noting that his unique perspective and approach to styling have been sorely missed. With his renewed focus and new muse in Ryan Destiny, fashion enthusiasts are eagerly anticipating the creative collaborations that will undoubtedly make headlines in the coming months.
