Celebrity stylist Law Roach has announced his retirement.

The โ€˜Legendaryโ€™ judge โ€“ who was the first-ever recipient of the Stylist Award at the 2022 CFDA Fashion Awards and is most famous for his work with Zendaya โ€“ suggested he has grown tired of the โ€œpolitics, lies and false narrativesโ€ of the industry so is ready to seek a new challenge.

Alongside an image of a sign reading โ€˜Retiredโ€™, he wrote on Instagram: โ€œMy Cup is emptyโ€ฆthank you to everyone whoโ€™ve supported me and my career over the years.

โ€œEvery person that trusted me with their image, Iโ€™m so grateful for you all. If this business was just about the clothes I would do it for the rest of my life but unfortunately itโ€™s not! The politics, the lies and false narratives finally got me! You winโ€ฆIโ€™m out.โ€

As well as his work with Zendaya, Law also won the Hollywood Reporterโ€™s stylist of the year accolade in recognition of his work with the likes of Issa Rae, Kerry Washington and Priyanka Chopra-Jonas in 2021, and most recently dressed โ€˜Scandalโ€™ star Kerry, Hunter Schafer, Eve Jobs and Megan Thee Stallion for the Vanity Fair Oscars afterparty.

A number of fashion greats urged the stylist to reconsider.

Supermodel Naomi Campbell commented: โ€œLaw I wonโ€™t let you !!!! We donโ€™t quit .. strived too hard.โ€

Fellow catwalk beauty Iman wrote: โ€œToo talented to retire.., Youโ€™re a designer at heart [double heart emoji]โ€

Designer Christian Siriano added: โ€œAbsolutely not.โ€

British Vogue editor Edward Enninful wrote: โ€œYou will always have a home @britishvogue [heart emoji]โ€

Actress Niecy Nash also offered some words of support.

She posted: โ€œWe all come or go on our OWN terms. If youโ€™re done because you want your next role, blessings to youโ€ฆ. If youโ€™re having a โ€œmomentโ€, keep your main character energy! Either way: you got this! (sic)โ€
