NEW YORK - Sean "P. Diddy" Combs finally got what he's craved from the fashion industry: respect — and a little thing called a CFDA award.
The Council of Fashion Designers of America named Combs the top menswear designer of the year for his Sean John collection at its annual awards show Monday night; he beat veterans and previous winners Ralph Lauren and Michael Kors.
This was Combs' first win despite four previous nominations.
"I'm very happy as you can see," said Combs, who danced his way up to the podium at the New York Public Library. "I've had some things I've had on my mind for a few years."
He didn't hold a grudge, though.
First, Combs, wearing a white tuxedo jacket, told the audience of fellow designers, models, fashion editors, stylists and retailers that years ago he stood in the Ralph Lauren store "saving my pennies" for a new Polo shirt. "I am living the American dream."
Then, he shouted, "Ralph, you're still the sexiest man on the planet!"
Are you happy Sergio? !!!
