Meet Tan France
Successful fashion designer Tan France is best known as the wardrobe wiz of Emmy-winning hit makeover TV show Queer Eye where he's ready to make America fabulous again one makeover at a time. This experience is so much more than just new clothes to the British-born fashion advisor; it’s about real-life issues, changes and acceptance on all sides.
Pre-Queer Eye it was Tan’s early years spending summers working in his grandfather’s denim factory while secretly attending fashion college which led Tan to become the creative mind behind successful brands including Kingdom & State and Rachel Parcell, Inc.
Following the global success of Queer Eye, Tan released his NY Times best-selling memoir Naturally Tan as well as the first season of his viral YouTube series Dressing Funny making over his celebrity friends including Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Nick Kroll and John Mulaney. Tan also hosts Next in Fashion, a global fashion design competition series for Netflix alongside Alexa Chung.

Great snippets of history
Tan presents this beautifully and it really makes you think how heteronormative history is and how we are taught it. More of this please (

Powerful
I went on a journey with Tan and I was fully furnished with history and the struggle of those whose lived experiences have made a path for others to live their truth. This is a powerful podcast and Tan France's narration is stellar.

Fascinating
I really enjoyed listening to this podcast. It was varied and Tan explores some fascinating characters. Tan is a natural presenter and very easy to listen to. It was helpful that he explained terminology and gave snippets of his own life experience. I look forward to hearing more from him.
