Kim Kardashian and celebrity image architect Law Roach have made their long-awaited styling collaboration official after years of informal fashion consultations. Kardashian confirmed the partnership at the New York City premiere of her Hulu legal drama, detailing how years of late-night FaceTime shopping sessions finally culminated in an official professional alliance.
The collaboration stepped into the spotlight when Kardashian attended the opening night of the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art, where she wore a vintage Yves Saint Laurent gown from Tom Ford’s fall 2004 collection selected by Roach. Following the event, Roach publicly acknowledged Kardashian as his newest client on social media. Speaking about expanding her approach to fashion, Kardashian noted that she works with various stylists depending on the specific occasion, wanting to grow, evolve, try new things, and incorporate Roach’s unique perspective alongside her personal relationships with designers.

Stylist Roach Describes Partnership Based on Mutual Trust
Roach explained that the partnership relies on mutual trust and individual perspective. What’s different from stylist to stylist, it’s just our perception of who the woman is, right?
Roach told USA Today and other outlets. And so what I’m doing with Kim, it’s just the way I see Kim Kardashian. I may see her different than one of her other stylists, and that’s the beauty about fashion and being creative, is it’s just perception.
He added that another creative might view her differently, which underscores the appeal of fashion.
Speaking at the InStyle Imagemaker Awards, Roach praised the reality star’s collaborative approach. She is such a beautiful person and nice and easy Law Roach, celebrity stylist[to work with],
he stated. She knows what she wants, but she also lets you create.
Roach described their ongoing work together as really, really, really fun.
The image architect, who announced his retirement from celebrity styling in 2023, continues to select bespoke projects, serve as a judge on Project Runway, and manage an influential client list that has previously featured memorable fashion moments for Ariana Grande, Céline Dion, Jennifer Hudson, and most notably, Zendaya.
