About the Book
Let Them Be Naked is more than just a book—it’s a manifesto calling for urgent change in the fashion industry. Written by Emmy-winning designer and activist Jeff Garner, this powerful work explores the hidden dangers lurking in our everyday clothing, exposing the toxic chemicals that silently infiltrate our bodies through the fabrics we wear.
Drawing from personal tragedy and a decade of research, Jeff challenges readers to rethink the trust we place in clothing manufacturers and regulatory bodies. Despite the assurances of safety, Let Them Be Naked reveals how the truth is quite the opposite—our clothes can be a major source of harmful toxins absorbed directly into our bloodstream through skin contact. The result? Bioaccumulation of poisons that contribute to serious health issues like breast cancer, prostate cancer, pregnancy complications, and more.
This book uncovers the startling reality that many of the garments we wear daily contain harmful chemicals, and the fashion industry has been largely unregulated in this regard. Jeff Garner’s research shows that the very items we wear—yoga pants, underwear, everyday shirts—can be laced with endocrine disruptors, carcinogens, and other toxic substances that endanger our health.
