Who are Hollywood’s top stylists?

Top Hollywood stylist Law Roach ’s retirement has shocked the fashion world. Roach, who is responsible for Zendaya's style transformation, took to Instagram this week to reveal he was leaving the industry, writing: “The politics, the lies and false narratives finally got me.” But his retirement has also shone the spotlight on the men and women who dress the A-list for the red carpet and beyond. Here are five of the most powerful stylists in Hollywood. Clients: Michael B Jordan, Serena Williams, Alicia Keys, Angelina Jolie Missouri native Bolden dressed Michael B Jordan in Louis Vuitton and Vanessa Hudgens in vintage Chanel for this year's Academy Awards , as well as styling Yara Shahidi, Dwyane Wade, Sabrina Carpenter, DeWanda Wise and Trevor Noah for the after-parties . Starting out as a pre-med student at Northwestern University, he transferred to the Art Institute of Chicago, breaking into styling when long-time friend, actress Gabrielle Union, asked him to help her dress for 2011’s Art Basel. “She's like, ‘Just find me something from your store to wear. Just bring it,’” Bolden told Fashionista . “It was a friend moment and I put her in this vintage Lanvin and it just went crazy.” The star of 2019 Netflix show, Styling Hollywood , Bolden differs from his peers by eschewing rails of clothes for a minimalist approach: “If we’re doing the Oscars,” he told Vogue , “there’s probably going to be three options.” Stand-out style moment: Michael B Jordan wearing Louis Vuitton and Tiffany brooches to present at this year’s Oscars Clients: Olivia Wilde, Ana de Armas, Justin and Hailey Bieber, Katy Perry, Karlie Kloss Welch has fashion in her blood, getting her start by working at her father’s menswear store in British Columbia, Canada.

A favourite of the Biebers, she designed more than 60 pieces for Justin’s 2012-2013 Believe World Tour, and has collaborated on a T-shirt line with the singer, who told Vogue : “Karla and I have always pushed boundaries together.” Welch told W of her styling process: “You get to know someone, what sort of direction they want to go in, and you go from there. “I just really think about them and think about what we are trying to say, and then we figure out how to articulate that through clothing.” Stand-out style moment: Putting Justin Bieber in a Celine suit and Nike trainers to meet French President Emmanuel Macron in June 2021 Clients: Zoe Kravitz, Lily-Rose Depp, Kaia Gerber, Channing Tatum The New York stylist is renowned for the cool energy he brings to his A-list clients' looks.

I'm not dressing Ashley Benson like I'm dressing Riley Keough; I'm not dressing Riley Keough like I'm dressing Suki Waterhouse.” After starting her career at Vogue , Mizrahi moved from New York to LA where she landed Eva Mendes as her first client, dressing her for the 2013 Place Beyond the Pines press tour.
