Law Roach, the renowned celebrity stylist celebrated for crafting Zendaya’s iconic fashion moments, is poised to share his expertise with a broader audience. In a recent interview with Time, the self-proclaimed “image architect” announced his plans to pen a book, following in the footsteps of other leading stylists. This exciting venture promises to offer readers a glimpse into the world of fashion and styling, drawing on Roach’s rich experience and unique perspective.
From his humble beginnings on the South Side of Chicago, where his passion for fashion first took root, Law Roach has charted a remarkable path to stardom. His journey began in his teenage years, fueled by a love for thrifting that eventually blossomed into a successful vintage boutique, Deliciously Vintage, which he co-founded with Siobhan Strong in 2006. Since then, Roach’s roster of clients has expanded to include an impressive lineup of A-list celebrities, such as Bella Hadid, Hunter Schafer, Céline Dion, and Anya Taylor-Joy. Each styling collaboration showcases his distinctive vision and flair, further solidifying his reputation as a transformative force in the fashion industry.
Despite his remarkable success, Law Roach sent shockwaves through the fashion world when he announced his retirement from styling in March 2023, seemingly at the height of his career. This unexpected move left many reeling, marking a pivotal moment in the industry. Now, Roach is taking a step back from the spotlight to channel his wealth of knowledge into his forthcoming book, How to Build a Fashion Icon: Notes on Confidence From the World’s Only Image Architect. This book promises to offer readers invaluable insights into the art of fashion and the power of self-confidence, drawing on Roach’s extensive experience and unique perspective as one of the industry’s most sought-after stylists.

A New Chapter: The Book
“I wanted to create something for people who may never need me to dress them for a red carpet, a piece of me that’s accessible and affordable,” Law Roach shared in his Time interview. “My career exists in a very niche market, but this allows me to connect with those who love me, even if we never meet.”
Roach describes his upcoming book as a self-help guide rather than a conventional celebrity memoir. “How to Build a Fashion Icon isn’t just about fashion,” he explained. “The real fashion icon is you. Anyone can become their own icon, regardless of the industry they’re in.” Each chapter intertwines celebrity anecdotes with practical style advice, all while shedding light on Roach’s inspiring journey—from his early days as a thrift store enthusiast to his current status as one of Hollywood’s most sought-after stylists. This book promises to empower readers to embrace their individuality and redefine their personal style.
Roach’s career took a transformative turn when he met the young Zendaya in 2010. Recognizing her immense potential, he became her stylist and played a crucial role in shaping her iconic fashion sense. Together, they have collaborated on countless award shows, red carpets, and fashion campaigns, continually pushing boundaries and redefining what style can be. “Zendaya and I started our fashion careers together. At the time, no one really knew either of us, so it was challenging to get clothes loaned to us. That pushed me to be more creative and become a better stylist. I had to make the world smaller to secure what we needed for her,” Roach reflects.
In addition to his upcoming book, Roach plans to launch a digital platform in November aimed at making the styling industry more accessible to aspiring fashion enthusiasts.
The hard copy of How to Build a Fashion Icon is set to be released on October 1, promising to inspire and empower readers to embrace their unique style.
