The Lexy Show: Fashion That Gives A Damn
I think we need to make people care. What does this mean for them.
The clothes in your closet may be affecting your health, polluting your water, and funding a system built on exploitation -- and the fashion industry is counting on you not connecting those dots. The Lexy Show: Fashion That Gives a Damn is the podcast that asks the questions fast fashion brands hope you're too busy to ask. Each week, host Lexy Silverstein breaks down the real cost of what we wear -- from toxic chemicals and greenwashing to secondhand shopping, slow fashion, and sustainable style that actually works. Whether you're thrift shopping for the first time or already deep in the conscious consumer world, you'll learn why what you wear matters more than they want you to think. New episodes every week.

This week on The Lexy Show: Fashion That Gives a D*mn, we’re joined by Julia Kepniss, Director of Strategy & Programming at the Brem Foundation to Defeat Breast Cancer.
Julia takes us inside Re-Bra, a powerful initiative that gives donated bras a second life while directly supporting breast cancer survivors. We talk about how the program started, the journey each donation takes, and why a simple act like giving a bra can be both sustainable and a true show of solidarity during Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Beyond Re-Bra, Julia shares more about the Brem Foundation’s mission to ensure every woman has access to early detection, education, and resources—regardless of income or background. She also offers ways for listeners to get involved, from donating and volunteering to hosting a bra drive in their own communities.
If you’ve ever wondered how something as everyday as a bra can become a symbol of empowerment, healing, and sustainability, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
