Celebrity stylist Law Roach on dressing Zendaya and 'faking it 'till you make it'
Even if you don't know Law Roach's face, you will have seen his work -- whether you've picked up a fashion magazine in recent years or populated your Instagram feed with A-listers.

These enduring looks, to name just a few, are the work of Roach, the Chicago-born stylist who has found a knack for engineering fashion moments that cut through the noise of a typical red carpet.
