Law Roach Unveils His Debut Book: 'How to Build a Fashion Icon'

Renowned celebrity stylist Law Roach, known for his groundbreaking work with clients such as Zendaya, Kerry Washington, and Megan Thee Stallion, is set to release his first book, How to Build a Fashion Icon: Notes on Confidence From the Worlds Only Image Architect. This highly anticipated book is more than a self-help guide; it is a manifesto that empowers readers to become their own fashion icons.

A Journey of Confidence and Style

Roach's journey from his humble beginnings on the South Side of Chicago to becoming one of Hollywoods most sought-after stylists is a testament to his resilience and dedication. His passion for fashion began with thrifting, which eventually led to the co-founding of his vintage boutique, Deliciously Vintage, in 2006. This early start paved the way for his rise in the fashion industry, where he has worked with an impressive lineup of A-list celebrities, including Bella Hadid, Hunter Schafer, Cline Dion, and Anya Taylor-Joy.

The book delves into Roachs personal anecdotes, from his childhood to his current status as a fashion icon. It includes practical style advice and step-by-step guides on how to cultivate confidence, which Roach attributes as the key to his success. 'How to Build a Fashion Icon isnt just about fashion,' Roach explained. 'The real fashion icon is you. Anyone can become their own icon, regardless of the industry theyre in.'

From Stylist to Author

Despite his remarkable success, Roach made headlines in March 2023 when he announced his retirement from styling. However, this move has allowed him to channel his wealth of knowledge into his forthcoming book. How to Build a Fashion Icon promises to offer readers invaluable insights into the art of fashion and the power of self-confidence, drawing on Roachs extensive experience and unique perspective.

Roachs career took a transformative turn when he met Zendaya in 2010. Together, they have collaborated on countless award shows, red carpets, and fashion campaigns, continually pushing boundaries and redefining what style can be. Their partnership has been instrumental in shaping Zendayas iconic fashion sense and has been a highlight of Roachs career.

Accessibility and Inclusivity

Roach aims to make his expertise accessible to a broader audience. 'I wanted to create something for people who may never need me to dress them for a red carpet, a piece of me thats accessible and affordable,' he shared. The book, priced at $28, is currently available for pre-order and will be released on October 1, 2024. Additionally, Roach plans to launch a digital platform in November to make the styling industry more inclusive and accessible to aspiring fashion enthusiasts.

Through his book and upcoming digital platform, Roach is committed to promoting self-love and expression in fashion and beyond. His legacy extends beyond his styling career, as he continues to open doors and keep them open for others who aspire to follow in his footsteps.
