What do Madonna, Britney Spears, Snoop Dogg and Sylvester Stallone all have in common? No, it's not the newest romantic scandal in Hollywood - In recent years one line of clothing has been by worn by all these celebrities and many more. It's not Gucci, Louis Vuitton or Burberry, it's Ed Hardy clothing, the hottest new brand by French designer Christian Audigier. Don Ed Hardy, legendary tattooist, is the namesake of this unique brand of clothing. His Japanese meets American style of work is idolised around the world, and he is known in many tattoo circles as "The Godfather of Modern Tattoo". Christian Audigier, who had previously designed lines for brands such as Urban Outfitters, Diesel and Von Dutch, saw a great opportunity in Hardy's work. He approached Hardy in 2004 with an idea for a clothing line based around his art and tattoo work. Hardy granted Audigier a license to use his work, and Ed Hardy clothing was born. Ed Hardy clothing quickly became a sensation across the world, but nobody took to the new range more than Hollywood's celebrity elite. Madonna wears Ed Hardy caps and t-shirts almost daily, and Britney Spears was recently filmed raiding the designer's massive California warehouse. Audigier's unique style of networking has undoubtedly a big part of why he is so successful in the business. He even has a "celebrity gallery" section on his official site that has literally dozens of pictures of him with the hottest celebs around. It ends up being very lucrative giving away free merchandise to celebrities, as the amount of exposure that they receive is so significant. It is also far cheaper than paying thousands of dollars to have the same celebs star in an ad campaign. The line is, however, not just for celebrities. As designer ranges go it is fairly reasonably priced, with girl's t-shirts starting from $62 and men's from $57. It is also worth noting that the whole range is based on a tattoo style that has endured for decades, so you can buy the clothes knowing that the Ed Hardy range will not be going out of fashion any time soon.
