In this two part episode of E.S.Now, we are with Jeff Garner, an Emmy Award winning fashion designer and documentary filmmaker who is about to release his feature film Let them Be Naked on Amazon Prime worldwide. In his twenty years of design, he has done extensive research and testing on different types of popular fabrics and has found disturbing levels of carcinogenic chemicals. Catch part two of this episode in two weeks.
Let Them Be Naked is an audacious exploration into the presence of toxic and often harmful chemicals in the fabrics and materials used in our everyday clothing. Since his mother’s death from breast cancer, designer and activist Jeff Garner has spearheaded a campaign to uncover the health implications of exposure to these chemicals and the urgent need for more ethical production of garments. His advocacy has created relationships with research organizations and innovators across the globe, all leading the conversation surrounding unregulated toxins in the fashion industry.
