I had the absolute pleasure of watching the debut of “Let Them Be Naked“ in Los Angeles, and trust me when I say, this documentary is a total game-changer. Jeff Garner, the eco-fashion guru behind the Prophetik brand, just took sustainable fashion to a whole new level.
You know how we always talk about what we eat, check the labels, count the ingredients, avoid the nasties, right? But when was the last time we gave that same attention to our clothes? Jeff’s documentary basically says, “Hey, you’re literally living in your clothes—shouldn’t you know what’s in them?”
In “Let Them Be Naked”, Jeff gets personal. After losing his mom to breast cancer, he set out to expose the hidden chemicals in our clothes (yeah, I’m talking formaldehyde in your bras—yikes!). With this film, he’s on a mission to make us think about what we’re putting on our bodies and how it could be affecting our health. I mean, the bras we wear, the T-shirts, even our cozy hoodies could be loaded with toxins linked to all sorts of health issues.
Jeff’s story is powerful. His loss, his determination, and his fight to make sure others don’t have to go through the same pain—it’s all woven into the heart of the documentary. When he talks about his mother, the weight of it really sinks in. He’s not just making clothes that are pretty and sustainable—he’s driven by a deep, personal need to protect others from the harmful effects that took his mom away. It’s emotional, raw, and incredibly moving.
But it gets even better! Suzy Amis Cameron, who has long been a fierce advocate for sustainable fashion, is also backing Jeff’s work. You might recognize her from Red Carpet Green Dress (RCGD Global™), which she launched back in 2009 to bring eco-conscious fashion to the Oscars. Celebrities like Gisele Bündchen, Emma Roberts, Nikki Reed, Bailey Bass, Tati Gabrielle, Laura Harrier, and Danielle Macdonald have all worn sustainable designs on the red carpet thanks to this initiative.
However, Suzy recently announced an exciting evolution. She decided to expand her efforts beyond just the fashion industry. Her new initiative is called Inside Out Sustainable Fashion, Textiles, and Home. Suzy realized that the same principles that fueled RCGD Global™ could be applied to every aspect of our lives—not just what we wear, but the textiles and materials we surround ourselves with at home too.
Suzy’s commitment to sustainability goes beyond making the red carpet green. She’s about transforming the fashion world from the inside out, focusing on what’s happening beneath the surface—whether it’s toxic dyes in our clothes or unethical practices in the supply chain. As she put it, “Inside Out represents the next chapter in our journey, a chapter that promises to be even more transformative, impactful, and inspiring.”
With her and Jeff teaming up, we’re talking about some serious changemakers leading the charge. It’s not just about swapping out fabrics; it’s about rethinking the whole system and doing better for ourselves and the planet.
What I loved most about the documentary is that it’s not preachy or overwhelming. Jeff gets it—we live in a fast-fashion world. But he encourages us to start small, make better choices when we can, and just be aware of what’s touching our skin every day. It’s all about progress, not perfection.
So, what’s the takeaway? Let’s all try to be a little more mindful about what we’re wearing. Maybe that means checking out labels a bit more closely, or swapping out that polyester for something organic. And if you’re curious about the film, definitely keep an eye out for when “Let Them Be Naked” comes to a screen near you—because this is one documentary that might just change your wardrobe and your mindset.
