Hilfiger's diverse achievements have earned him a variety of distinguished awards. He was named Menswear Designer of the Year in 1995 by the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA). That same year he received VH1's "From the Catwalk to the Sidewalk" award at their annual Fashion and Music awards. In 1998, Parson's School of Design in New York City, honored him with their Designer of the Year award, as did GQ magazine for their annual "Men of the Year" issue. Hilfiger also won several FiFi awards, which is the fragrance industry's most illustrious honor. Not many people are aware of this, but in 2002, the Drug Abuse Resistance Education (D.A.R.E.) organization presented Hilfiger with the “Future of America Award,” D.A.R.E.’s highest honor, for his philanthropic efforts for America’s youth.
