CHRISTIAN AUDIGIER
Christian Audigier was born in southern France in the
city of Avignon. From the beginning, he was drawn to the rock and roll
style. He wanted to follow in the footsteps of Mick Jagger, but lacked the
singing voice. Christian then moved into fashion, building the impressive
portfolio you see today
The past twenty years of fashion have been blessed by the creative genius
of Christian Audigier. He left his indelible style on brands such as
American Eagle Outfitters, Diesel, Lee, Levi's, Liberto, Kookai and Naf
Naf. Christian joined the apparel company, Von Dutch, when they were still
unknown, transforming the brand into a world sensation.
Any comparable designer would rest on their laurels after having made such
a distinct impression on the fashion world. However, Christian Audigier is
not resting. His charismatic and colorful approach to fashion, fueled by
Christian's ebullient promotional strategy, allowed him to elevate the
tattoo art of Don Hardy and create Ed Hardy by Christian Audigier, one of
the hottest new brands worn by celebrities and by the world. Stepping up
the pace, he rolled out his eponymous street wear line, Christian Audigier,
reflecting Christian’s French-California perspective and drawing
inspiration from his every day lifestyle influenced by rock & roll and
glam on the streets of Los Angeles.
Christian Audigier continues to dress the best of film, TV, sports and
music. His following includes – Britney Spears, Jessica Alba, Mariah
Carey, Mickey Rourke, Paris Hilton, Snoop Dogg, Chris Brown, Usher,
