A$AP Rocky has been named the Council of Fashion Designers of America’s 2025 Fashion Icon, and will be presented with the award at the CDFA Fashion Awards, held on the 3rd of November, 2025 at the New York Museum of Natural History. Born Rakim Mayers, the American rapper and actor is known for combining streetwear and high fashion codes, infusing his looks with a rich sense of culture and spotlighting smaller designers in the process.
“A$AP Rocky is a fashion icon in the purest form,” said Thom Browne, chairman of the CFDA, in a statement. “He is one of a kind…his truly original approach to fashion inspires me, and so many, to think differently.”
His longtime partner Rihanna, with whom he recently welcomed a third child, received the honour of being CFDA’s Fashion Icon in 2014.
