jail house tat's = chic? since when?

Since when was it cool to wear shirts with "fake" tattoo sleeves?
I'm sorry but this is as "poser" as you get.

Christian Audigier is the designer of the popular Ed Hardy brand. He along with "Don Ed Hardy" also known as "the Godfather of Tattoo's" created this line of shirts with tattoo sleeves sewn in.


it poses the question of.... when was it considered "posh" or "chic" to have tattoo's all over your arms? especially for females. ummmm hold on..NEVER!


Audigier has several brands under his name including the extremely short lived "Von Dutch". remember the trucker hats that sold for over $60 each.


Don't get me wrong, i like Ed Hardy and own a few pieces, but i just don't like that no matter where i go i see it. Since it's debut in 2004, it has become saturated in almost every boutique or up-scale department store.

It's almost like it's not unique anymore. When everyone has something, it's not as desirable as it would be if no one had it. it's all about the demand for the product and all of the hype surrounding it.

The cost for pretending you have tattoo sleeves and looking like a jack ass. $92.00
