Author: TravisGreenbaum Total views: 5 Word Count: 532

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.

Audigier is quite a big fish in the big pond of fashion-nearly everyone knows of his clothing. Currently, Audigier has seven very successful, well-established clothing lines: 'Ed Hardy,' 'Christian Audigier,' 'Crystal Rock,' 'SMET,' 'Chuck Boyd,' 'C-Bar-A,' and 'Paco Chicano.' Each of Christian Audigier's clothing lines is unique, and each has helped to build the Christian Audigier clothing brand into one of the biggest of the fashion world.

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.

Next, Audigier began to work with the Von Dutch Company. Many people in the fashion world credit Audigier with bringing Von Dutch to the forefront of the fashion world-without Audigier, they say, Von Dutch may not be on the fashion map. Nowadays, Christian Audigier clothing lines still sell trucker-type hats; however, they are much different. These hats have Ed Hardy tattoos artfully embroidered on them. Examples include Christian Audigier monograms, skulls and cross bones, cannabis leaves, and panthers. The tattoos on these hats are much like those on the other items sold in the Christian Audigier clothing lines.

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.

Men and women of nearly any age enjoy wearing Christian Audigier clothing. Not many clothing lines can make this type of statement, that's for certain. Both famous and non-famous people alike enjoy his designs. Audigier has created more than a brand with his clothing lines-he has created a culture.
