Henry Lloyd-Hughes (N.E. Blake) | #008
Henry Lloyd-Hughes is a British actor, known for his roles in comedy series, The Inbetweeners, period drama, Indian Summers, and the new series Killing Eve, coming soon — as well as his film and theatrical work.
But, little known fact, he’s also a clothing fanatic and the founder of new British sportswear brand N.E. Blake, which he’s established to create cricket kit that is as stylish as it is functional. We discuss his long-standing passion for sport, his early days selling clothes as a jobbing actor, and how his career as a thesp has intertwined with his love of menswear.
We also get his take on what’s hot and what’s not in the men’s fashion industry right now, and get the inside track on N.E. Blake.
