Okay, okay, we know there's a recession on and that everyone should be grateful for the jobs they have. But perhaps designer Max Azria is overdoing it a bit?

According to WWD, BCBG Max Azria Group now has a whopping 22 brands in its portfolio, ranging from under $20 for the new Wal-mart line to $3000 for Hervé Leger dresses.This means Azria has beaten out multi-taskers extraordinaire Marc Jacobs (Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs, Marc by Marc) and Karl Lagerfeld (Chanel, Fendi, K Karl Lagerfeld) for the title of Designer with the Most Lines.
