Ed Hardy: Love it or Hate it?

From Stephanie Prommer, About.com GuideJune 14, 2008

Follow me on:

I have to say that I'm on the fence when it comes to the ever-popular Ed Hardy clothing line. Although I know some people that swear by it, to me it just looks a little bit, well...over-the-top.

Take this $49 Golden Rose of Love Scarf, for example. With it's combo of skulls, script writing, bold colors, and floral prints, the whole thing just leaves my eyes exhausted. What do you think - are you a fan of the Ed Hardy brand?

I have to agree with you. I appreciate graphic designs that are simpler. When there’s too much going on in the fabric, you miss the person wearing the clothes and the overall fashion statement gets lost.

I think that the don ed hardy clothes line is a great new and fun look. Being 18, I love all of the stuff that christian audigier designs. They are hip and you always get compliments. I have so much ed hardy stuff and it never gets old. Smet is also totally cool if your into the whole don ed hardy look!

Just as any other fashion trend, Ed Hardy is going to fade out badly just like Von Dutch, which, btw, was also made by Christian Audigier. Nothing original, find a print and put it on a t-shirt and trucker cap. I can’t believe he even calls himself a designer.

SMET is just an Affliction knock-off and copycat.

I give it 6 more months then everyone is going to wish they never spent $150.00 on a played out Ed Hardy t-shirt.

I love Ed Hardy. To all of the people out there who are too ugly, or fat to pull it off, dont take it out on us. It takes a unique person to pull of any ed hardy outfit.

I love most of the range, yes some is not the best, but same with any clothing range. Your saying that if you walk into your favourite designers shop that there wont be one thing that you dont like?

For example i love this simple t-shirt:
