Queer Eye fashion expert Tan France says there's nothing frivolous about fashion. It impacts how you carry yourself and your self-esteem. For Tan, fashion changed his life. He remembers seeing a bolt of fabric in his grandfather's factory that inspired a vision — of moving away, of marrying a man he loves and of embracing his true identity. Tan France joins us to talk about growing up in England, why fashion matters, his love of Salt Lake City and everything else that makes him Naturally Tan.
