Sean Combs has had several name changes throughout his illustrious career -- from Puff to Puff Daddy to Diddy to King Combs. But the short-lived moniker that we believe best sums up his '90s style is "Swag."
The Harlem-born producer, who signed big acts like Notorious B.I.G., Craig Mack and Faith Evans to his Bad Boy Records label, embodied the flashy aesthetic of that era with his shiny suits and gold chains. Whether "dancing all up in the videos" or posing on red carpets, everything Diddy wore was B.I.G.
So in honor of the music mogul's 46th birthday on Nov. 4, we are Diddy boppin' our way down memory lane with this list of his most outrageous '90s looks. Which one is your favorite? Tell us in the comments section!
