John Boyega Breaks Down New Fashion Line, The Edition by John Boyega, With British GQ

John Boyega sat down with British GQ to discuss his new fashion line, The Edition by John Boyega collection. This new collection will debut at H&M stores and online on October 28. Highlights from his interview are below.

On his new collection: “Sustainability is key to me. People need to be educated. I had a normal upbringing in the UK and the only thing I ever really knew or heard about sustainability was linked to recycling and what the bin men were willing to take away. Fashion is a good way of being responsible for your own sustainability and carbon output, as, let’s face it, people can’t always be sustainable in every aspect of their lives. With your fashion choices you can be better more easily, as there are so many brands doing good stuff, or you can learn to reuse. I wanted that to be intrinsic to the H&M collection.”

On his longtime love of H&M: “It’s long been my go-to for simple, everyday pieces. Nowhere does it better, to be honest. I like to mix those budget-friendly products with higher-end ones.”

On what acting has taught him about grooming: “My job has made me better with my grooming regime. People forget that sure, people do my make-up and hair, but they’re also teaching me stuff. Through those experiences, I now have incorporated lip scrubs and face rollers into my everyday.”
