Ed Hardy is EVERYWHERE. I feel like this designer brand popped out of nowhere and just became ubiquitous. Ed Hardy flip flops, hand bags, jeans, t-shirts, kittens, blah blah. To me, the line jumped the shark when Jon Gosselin, formerly of Jon & Kate (Plus 8) was seen in France with Ed Hardy designer Christian Audigier, apparently to discuss either a biker or kids line (?).

I recently discovered that the Ed Hardy clothing line is based on the artwork of Don Ed Hardy. I also found out that Christian Audigier is no stranger to brands that oversaturate the market - he's the designer of the Von Dutch collection (remember those trucker hats?).

So I guess it's sort of inevitable that Ed Hardy now does plus sizes. For between $60-90 you can get an Ed Hardy t-shirt at Macys, among other places. I can't decide if this is a good thing or not. I personally won't be buying into this trend, but I'm happy that if my plus size sisters want to splash this brand across themselves, they at least have the option now.
