About Sean Combs In 1991, 22 year old Harlem native and Howard University student Sean "Puffy" Combs started an internship at uptown records that would prove to be the beginning of the most successful and rapid ascent in the history of the entertainment industry. Within months his talents were noticed, and he was promoted to vice president of A&R making his mark as the creative force behind the debut albums of Jodeci and Mary J. Blige. From the beginning of his career, Puffy has always had an intrinsically great sense of personal style, which he has incorporated into every aspect of his life. From the music video in which he has starred and produced to his covers of such magazines as Rolling Stone, Vibe, The Source, Notorious and One World, Puff's style has pervaded. His interests in fashion range from celebrity attendee at runway shows in Milan, Paris and New York to the fashion icon that he has become with the 1998 launch of his own line of clothing appropriately named Sean John, his first and middle names. "I didn't want to over use my celebrity," said Puffy. "I just called it Sean John, which is my fashion alter ego and real name." ImagesClick on thumbnails to see larger images:
