X17 XCLUSIVE - Michael Jackson & Christian Audigier Partner For Vegas Clothing Store!

Hab gelesen das der laden am 04.07.2008 eröffnet stimmt das???

munkelt man...bzw wurde in Vegas so getratscht.

Die T-Shirts von Ed Hardy sind das Arschgeweih der Stunde. Zehn mal Wissenswertes über ein, naja: Erfolgslabel
1.
Der Firmenname geht auf einen Typ namens Don Ed Hardy zurück, der Anfang der 70er ein Tattoo-Studio in San Fransisco betrieb. Nach einer langen Reise durch Japan begann Hardy damit, fernöstliche Tattoo-Muster in seine Arbeit zu übernehmen. Gemeinsam mit seiner Frau veröffentlichte er Bücher mit Titeln wie „Bulls Eyes & Black Eyes“ oder „Life and Death Tattoos“. 2002 gründete er ein Klamottenlabel.

2.
Heute verkauft die Marke Ed Hardy unter Chefdesigner Christian Audigier „Vintage Tattoo Wear“. Auf den T-Shirts, Kapuzenpullis und Lederjacken des Labels prangen Tiger, Totenköpfe, Adler, Geishas, Soldaten, Hasen und Stinktiere. Immer ganz groß dabei: das geschwungene Ed Hardy-Logo.

3.
Audigier über Audigier: „Ich bin der Godfather of Rock’n’Roll Fashion“. Früher wollte der Mann Rockstar werden, jetzt macht er Klamotten für Menschen, die gerne wie Rockstars aussehen würden.

4.
Die T-Shirts kosten etwa 80 bis 200 Euro pro Teil. Inzwischen macht die Firma über 100 Millionen Dollar Umsatz pro Jahr und betreibt 40 Filialen.

5.
Audigier lässt sich gerne mit Prominenz ablichten, die Prominenz lässt sich gerne mit Ed Hardy ablichten. Beispiele: Madonna, Carmen Electra, Britney, David Beckham, Sylvester Stallone und Snoop Dogg - alle schon neben Audigier gestanden. Aber! Auch des Prolltums unverdächtige Menschen wie Nicole Kidman oder Penelope Cruz stehen auf die Tattoo-Shirts. Berühmte deutsche Fans sind unter anderem Tokio-Hotel-Bill und Schweini Schweinsteiger. Auf der Ed Hardy-Homepage gibt es eine „Celebrity Gallery“, in der alle Werbeträger aus dem Showbusiness vollständig und chronologisch aufgelistet sind. Die Firmenzentrale in Los Angeles ist mit Fotos austapeziert, die Stars in Ed Hardy zeigen.

6.
Dass die Marke bei jüngerem Publikum eine gewisse Strahlkraft besitzt, hat sich rumgesprochen. Genützt hat es in diesem Fall nichts. (siehe Anhang)

7.
Im deutschsprachigen Raum tauchten die Fummel erstmals vor circa eineinhalb Jahren in der zweiten Staffel von „Germany's next Topmodel“ auf. In einer Folge wurde zum Ed Hardy-Casting geladen und Heidi-Spezl Christian Audigier ließ die Mädchen großzügig seinen Laden plündern. Die Models waren so dankbar, dass sie in allen weiteren Sendungen die Klamotten gar nicht mehr ausziehen wollten. Christina, Finalistin der dritten Staffel, ist zurzeit auf überlebensgroßen Ed Hardy-Werbetafeln in ganz Los Angeles zu sehen.

8.
Audigier entwirft bald auch Motorräder.

9.
Ganz der Papa: Audigiers Tochter Crystal Rock hat ihr eigenes Label Crystal Rock gegründet. Ihr Design atmet „den Geist der Jugend und reflektiert den Individualismus Hollywoods.“ Sagt sie selbst.

10.
Und zum Schluss noch eine Mutmaßung: Kunden, die Ed Hardy-Artikel kaufen, kaufen auch Produkte von: Juicy Couture, Baby Phat, Diesel und Von Dutch. An den Von Dutch-Truckercaps trägt Audigier als ehemaliger Vizechef des Labels übrigens Mitschuld.

MIJAC TO DESIGN CLOTHING LINE: Singer teams with Christian Audigier to launch pieces this fall.

(June 25, 2008)

Michael Jackson is reportedly in the planning stages of creating a new clothing line with his friend, Ed Hardy designer Christian Audigier, that is expected to launch sometime in the fall, reports People.com.

“It’s the merging of the King of Pop with the king of fashion. Something explosive is going to happen,” said Audigier.

The project is currently in the planning stages, but Los Angeles boutique Kitson has already committed to carrying the line – without having seen any of the pieces.

“Michael Jackson is an international pop icon who has had a huge following throughout his career," said Kitson owner Fraser Ross. "I think people will think it’s hip to wear his line. Through all his ups and downs people still love him. He still has a huge fan base.”

Ed Hardy clothing label comes to NorthPark Center

11:20 AM CDT on Wednesday, June 25, 2008
By JASON SHEELER / The Dallas Morning News jasonsheeler@dallasnews.com

Michael Jackson performed at his recent birthday bash and proclaimed him the King of Fashion. He sells his own energy drink. He's even an F.O.B. (friend of Britney). He's California-based designer Christian Audigier, and he's bringing his Ed Hardy label to NorthPark Center – along with some Hollywood heat.

Audigier first gained press and paparazzi props as head of early naughties sensation Von Dutch. By 2004, trucker caps and pinstripe Ts had become both a mall and Punk'd staple, and Audigier had moved on to his own company, Ed Hardy by Christian Audigier.

The label takes its name – and colorful aesthetic – from "godfather of the tattoo" Don Ed Hardy, whose catalog of designs Audigier purchased to splash across, among other things, caps, sneaks, scarves, hoodies, Ts and tube tops. The label has become a West Coast favorite, showing up on the backs (and buns) of Madonna, Carrie Underwood and Snoop Dogg. The 1,800-square-foot store, between Sheke and Original Penguin, is the first in Texas and will sell both men's and women's wear.

Preview Ed Hardy's fall collection: Aug. 16 runway show at NorthPark Center during the 2008 Fashion!Dallas/Kim Dawson Model Search casting call.

MJ CLOTHING LINE

I'm just letting you guys know that the clothing line is coming soon, I did find out exactly when it will be released but I believe it's in MJ's interest to NOT give that info out yet so I'm going to respect that.. If the clothing line has any indecation of when the album may come out.. (To co'inside together) that would be great news..

I got the exact 'street market' date, and if I get the O.K. by either MJ's team or Christians team I will let you know that exact date...

No it was not 'leaked'.. No one that was supposed to keep a secret did not tell me anything.. I just got a bit creative on finding out.. The information is available, it's actually pretty easy to get it, but I can't say how.. If you think hard enough (on how to find out) you'll figure it out..

I really wanna tell ya. but!!!! sorry.. I gotta put Mike first.. Even over my own excitement.. And yes, the clothing will be the same pricing as other clothing under Chris A. So some will need to save some.. And they will do shipments, Online orders.
