"Pharrell Williams’s unique style has earned him a reputation for being one of the world’s most recognizable trend-setters," the CFDA said in a statement. 

"If cool was a person, it would be Pharrell, not just for his looks and sense of style but for his kindness and openness. I cannot imagine anyone not seduced by him," said Diane von Furstenberg, president of the CFDA.
