Law Roach is finally letting go of his grudges against certain brands that said "no" to dressing Zendaya when they first started out, including Saint Laurent, Dior, Valentino, Chanel and Gucci.
On Ziwe Fumudoh’s "You’d Be an Iconic Guest" podcast on August 16, Roach said, "I think that there is an importance of being petty, but I’ve outgrown my pettiness."

Law Roach said he has stopped holding grudges against the 'big five' fashion houses for refusing to dress Zendaya.
"I think that holding grudges makes you ugly, so in my quest to become more beautiful, I’ve released some of the grudges that I held," he continued.
In fact, to prove that he has indeed taken the high road and doesn't feel so strongly anymore against those incredibly famous fashion houses, Roach even confessed, "I’m actually wearing Saint Laurent right now."
At the same time, when asked if the Euphoria actress will also be wearing any of the brands that he previously soured on, the stylist's response was a definitive "no."
Law Roach Said No to the 'Big Five' Because They Refused to Dress Zendaya

Law Roach previously stated that he wouldn't dress Zendaya in outfits from the 'big five' fashion houses.
Previously, on the "Cutting Room Floor" podcast in May 2024, Roach stated that he wouldn't dress Zendaya in outfits from the "big five" fashion houses because they all kept turning him down when he asked them to dress the then-teenager star.
"Try again next year. She’s too green. She’s not on our calendar," was the response the stylist used to get, adding that he had even saved the "receipts" from those interactions.

Roach Says He & Zendaya Have Become 'One Soul Sharing Two Bodies'

Law Roach said he and Zendaya have become 'one soul sharing two bodies.'
Zendaya and Roach's friendship and creative partnership have been for years now, and their time together has pretty much transformed them into "one soul sharing two bodies," in the stylist's words.
"Sometimes she’s my best friend. Sometimes she’s my advisor. Sometimes she’s my [opponent] because we fight. Sometimes she’s my annoying little sister. She is many things to me, and I hope that I am the same number of things to her," the style guru added.
