When looking at the world of fashion, it sometimes pays to look outside the very narrow world of clothing and accessories to get inspiration. Look at tattoos for instance. Probably the best known artist in the world of tattoos is Ed Hardy. He has pioneered several new techniques and methods within the world of tattoos, and is also very well known for his styles and designs, having juxtapositioned classical Japanese and oriental styles with the more traditional styles seen in the west. The result is a fusion of several styles that gives an authentic and unique style of its own.
Ed Hardy went into semi retirement a few years ago to pursue a new project. He teamed up with the noted fashion designer Christian Audigier to produce Ed Hardy clothing. The range of clothing that Ed Hardy produces is absolutely stunning, and, although it doesn’t sound possible, brings all the well known designs of Ed Hardy’s tattoos into the world of fashion. It’s easy to see how well this brand will do, especially given the current vogue for tattoos. Audigier himself, who partners Ed Hardy in this one, is well known for being head designer for several major brands of sportswear, including Kookai, Affliction, and Von Dutch. As a result, the clothes in this range are not just great to look at, they’re comfortable and practical too, something that doesn’t happen too often in fashion.
For those of you interested in this brand, the Ed Hardy sale is currently on via their website. You would be well advised to check it out, and possibly get a great bargain. You won’t regret it.
