In a new feature with Elle magazine for Zendaya, which Law styled, he confirmed that he is now her Creative Director.

“Our relationship is like family, so I don’t think I’m going anywhere—and even if I wanted to, she wouldn’t let me,” he told the mag.

“I’m grateful that people like the work and understand the story. And I’m grateful for her giving me the opportunity to shine,” he added. “It’s not often that such a big superstar like that is very generous and understanding when someone wants to basically step out. She’s been one of my biggest supporters.”

“I ride super hard for my team, especially for people I love,” Zendaya noted about their relationship. “He’s involved in every fashion contract, everything I do. If I have an opportunity where he can come with me, he’s always going to be there. He’s always been my creative director in a sense, and he continues to fill that role, because it’s more than just clothes on a red carpet. It’s a bigger thing.”
