Recently, almost everywhere you go, you will see someone wearing an Ed Hardy t-shirt, hat, or hoody. Who hasn't heard of the world-famous Ed Hardy clothing line? With unique prints that are recognizable from a mile away, Ed Hardy can easily be called one of the trendiest brands today.

All Ed Hardy pieces are based on the creations of legendary tattoo artist, Don Ed Hardy, who spent the early part of his career tattooing out of his San Francisco studio. Drawing inspiration from his life experiences, Ed Hardy's designs meld American, Japanese, Cholo, tattoo, surf and hotrod iconography. "The godfather of modern tattoo," Ed Hardy is known for his sophistication, depth and sense of experimentation.

The Ed Hardy brand began in 2002, when Hardy was approached by Ku USA, Inc., who were interested in producing a clothing line based on his artwork. The line immediately took off, catching the attention of anyone and everyone in the fashion world.

Then, in 2004, Ed Hardy teamed up with Christian Audigier, a French designer who transformed the previously unknown Von Dutch into a worldwide fashion icon. Since then, Ed Hardy Clothing and Accessories have skyrocketed, becoming one of the hottest new brands to hit the celebrity fashion scene.

Ed Hardy clothing has been seen on a number of "A-List" celebrities, including Madonna, Paris Hilton, Shaquille O'Neal, Busta Rhymes, Britney Spears, Alicia Keys, Denise Richards, Pharrell, Sylvester Stallone, and Shakira just to name a few.

But why Ed Hardy? Well, what makes Ed Hardy so different from every other brand is how unique the designs truly are. Since they are modeled from tattoos, the styles take on a whole other dimension, incorporating bold colors and daring imagery. For example, Ed Hardy clothing is often decorated with skulls, tigers, or daggers, but also with hearts and roses.

Ed Hardy Clothing is like no other. Stay tuned for more exciting releases from Ed Hardy and Christian Audigier who are sure to continue demanding your attention with this incredibly unique brand.

Ed Hardy Bags are designed by Christian Audigier. Every Ed Hardy Bag is based on an original tattoo design by artist Don Ed Hardy.
