It\u2019s an honor to be in the same room with you, let alone to receive an award from you and I really mean that,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Fox then described the achievement as a \u201cfull circle moment\u201d because \u201cin middle school, I used to go to her store on Madison Avenue and shoplift,\u201d she said, joking, \u201cbut honestly, it\u2019s her fault. The clothes were that good!\u201d<\/p>\n
Her comments had the crowd in stitches, and Williams took notes before he hit the stage to present the Brand Innovation award to his pal, Monica Rich Kosann. <\/p>\n
\u201cWhat have we learned so far tonight?\u201d said Williams, \u201cWe\u2019ve learned the we have an active shoplifter here on the loose: Casually move any of your valuables [to a safe place],\u201d he quipped.<\/p>\nWilliams joked that Fox was an \u201cactive shoplifter\u201d on the loose.

The evening kicked off with Tom\u2019s founder Blake Mycoskie receiving the social impact award from actress Jamie Alexander. Mycoskie spoke about crashing out and dealing with seven years of depression after he sold his company, which led him to create \u201cEnough,\u201d bracelets that 100 percent of proceeds are donated to mental health organizations. He gifted attendees with two of the bracelets at their seats. <\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re all enough, and it\u2019s not our accomplishments or our achievements that define our self worth. It\u2019s our birthright to have that word,\u201d he said. <\/p>\nJamie Alexander presented \u201cEnough\u201d founder Blake Mycoskie with the social impact award.
