Law Roach reveals the fashion houses that wouldn’t dress Zendaya at the beginning of her career



Zendaya’s stylist, Law Roach, revealed the five major fashion houses that wouldn’t dress the actress at the beginning of her career.

“I would write [to] the big five… and everyone would say no,” he said during a recent appearance on the show “Cutting Room Floor” podcast, referring to Saint Laurent, Dior, Valentino, Chanel and Gucci.

Roach, who has been dressing the “Euphoria” star since she was 14, says she was constantly told, “Try again next year. It’s too green. It’s not on our calendar.”

“I still have the bills,” the celebrity stylist, 45, noted, adding that he and Zendaya, 27, continue to avoid these designers.

“Before she could [the cover of] American Vogue [in 2017], she still has never worn any of these designers. She still hasn’t done it,” he added.

Roach went on to explain that the “Spider-Man: No Way Home” actress wore the five designers’ pieces in editorial shoots, but not in public or on red carpets.

“She still has never worn Dior on a carpet. She still has never worn Chanel on a carpet. She still has never worn Gucci on the carpet – in any press, in any appearance, ever. Never,” he explained.

“The first time she wore Valentino in public was when she was under contract,” the “Legendary” alum continued.

“When I said, ‘If you say no, it’s a no forever,’ that rang true for a long, long time.”

It appears that none of the “big five” fashion houses have responded to the allegations.

Roach is not one to bite his tongue about Hollywood’s flaws.

In March 2023, the “OMG Fashun” co-host announced that she was leaving fashion due to “politics” and “lies” in the industry.

“My cup is empty…..thank you to everyone who has supported me and my career over the years. To every person who entrusted me with their image, I am very grateful for you,” he wrote in a then-deleted post on Instagram.

“If this business was only about clothes, I would do it for the rest of my life, but unfortunately it is not!” Roach continued.

“Politics, lies and false narratives have finally caught up with me! You win… I’m out.”

However, Roach returned last February, styling Celine Dion for her return to the Grammy stage in 2024.

Most recently, he styled Zendaya for the 2024 Met Gala, where the “Challengers” actress co-chaired fashion’s biggest night while wearing not one, but two striking gowns.
