Law Roach Remembers Pregnant Keke Palmer Telling Him 'You’re Not the Best Stylist for Me'

"She was right though," the celebrity stylist recalled during an event for his new book 'How to Build a Fashion Icon'

Law Roach and Keke Palmer have a special kind of relationship.

The celebrity stylist was joined by his friend and former client in celebration of his new book, How to Build a Fashion Icon: Notes on Confidence from the World's Only Image Architect. At the Wednesday, Oct. 2 panel discussion, Roach recalled a particularly memorable moment in their friendship.

"So when me and Keke started working, we worked together years and years and years ago," the stylist began. "It didn't quite work out, but we always loved each other. It was always love. It was always love."

He explained that they started working together again when Keke was pregnant with her son Leodis "Leo" Andrellton, whom she welcomed in February 2023.

"And I'm like, 'Oh, let's show the baby bump,'" Roach, 46, recalled. "I'm bringing all these clothes and I could never get the clothes right. And one time she actually called me, she said, 'You might be the best stylist in the world, but you're not the best stylist for me.' I f------ love it."

"Law lives for a drag," Palmer, 31, jokingly interjected.

"I love it, I love it," Roach replied. "But she was right though because in my mind I had this idea of how I wanted to present her. I wanted her to be proud of the baby bump and show it off. And it was her personal prerogative, she didn't want to give it to the world yet."

The stylist then told Palmer, "So I will always love you."

Roach's client list boasts A-listers like Anya Taylor-Joy, Celine Dion and Ariana Grande but he's best known for his longtime partnership with Zendaya. The duo has been working together since 2011 when the Emmy winner, now 28, was still a Disney Channel star.

Some fan-favorite collaborations include Zendaya’s butt-baring 1995 Mugler robot bodysuit she wore during the Dune: Part Two press tour (which she later told Vogue made her “really lightheaded.”) and the Tommy Hilfiger fairy tale ballgown the Euphoria star wore to the 2019 Met Gala.

At New York Fashion Week in September, Roach told PEOPLE that he “can’t” pick his favorite Zendaya look.

“I can’t say I have a favorite because they all mean so much,” he said at the Christian Cowan show. “We’ve been together for over a decade, and we’ve just done so many looks.”

However, he did share that creating a look is "all about confidence."

"You can wear anything you want no matter your size, age, anything. It’s all about confidence."
