Christian Audigier - A Fashion Legend

Look online or in magazines any day and you can see celebrities wearing Christian Audigier clothing. Stars such as Britney Spears, Ludacris, Jessica Alba, Usher, Heidi Klum, and many more are frequently photographed wearing Audigier's designs. Pretty much everyone knows who Christian Audigier is these days-he is one of the biggest names in the fashion world. Between his work with Von Dutch and his collaborations with Ed Hardy, Audigier has definitely made a name for himself.

Christian Audigier clothing is not just one clothing line, though-Audigier actually has seven highly successful clothing lines. Well, at least, that's how many clothing lines he has so far-Audigier is so highly motivated and creative, it is always possible he may create another line. The lines he has currently are: 'Ed Hardy,' 'Christian Audigier,' 'SMET,' 'Crystal Rock,' 'Chuck Boyd,' ' C-Bar-A,' and 'Paco Chicano.'

Audigier wasn't an immediate star in the fashion world, though. He gained a lot of his know-how from working first with several designer jean companies. When Audigier was younger, he dreamed of being a rock-and-roll star; so, he designed a denim collection inspired by the Rolling Stones. An executive at 'MacKeen Jeans' took notice of his collection, and that began Audigier's career in denim. From there, he went on to work with 'Diesel,' 'Bisou Bisou,' 'American Outfitters,' 'Fiorucci,' and 'Levi's.' However, he didn't just work at these companies-he was incredibly valuable to them, becoming one of the leading forces in design at each. This led to him gaining the nickname of "The King of Jeans." His experience with jeans and denim is evident in a great number of the Christian Audigier clothing designs that are being sold today.

Once he tired of working with denim, Audigier began working with the company called Von Dutch. The trucker hats he developed and designed are widely believed to have put Von Dutch on the fashion map. Now, Christian Audigier clothing lines still sell hats; however, they are different from the Von Dutch trucker hats. The hats now sold are intricately embroidered with Ed Hardy tattoo designs. The creations are much like those that are on Audigier's other items of clothing, and they include designs of panthers, hearts, skulls and crossbones, cannabis leaves, Christian Audigier monograms, and other original conceptions.

Upon leaving Von Dutch, Audigier wanted to build a clothing line around the idea of tattoos. He decided to do an internet search for "famous tattoo artist," and it is through this method that he found Don Ed Hardy. The rest is history-Audigier and Hardy formed a partnership and named the clothing line 'Ed Hardy.' Now, Christian Audigier clothing items can be found with many different types of Ed Hardy tattoos on them. People can purchase t-shirts, hoodies, and more with these tattooed designs.

Not many clothing lines can say that they appeal to men and women of nearly any age; however, Christian Audigier can certainly say that about his clothing lines. Celebrities as well as people among all walks of life enjoy wearing his pieces. Christian Audigier clothing is not just about garments-it is about culture.
