Most often than usual, one's personal style is an extension of their profession. And since in today's time, boundaries are quite blurred (meaning: one aspect creeping into the other), for example, if you're an architect and over-all a creative maverick, in all probability, your menswear abilities will reflect that. New Delhi-based architect and so to say, a baller dude in life — Viraj Kataria's life theory is no different at all.

But, while his daily grind involves re-inventing spaces and changing one's architectural views, his everyday wardrobe superimposes the same aesthetic. While being professional (yet relaxed), classic (but supremely-fitted), safe (but not boring) — Kataria's sartorial skills are a clear indication, that the guy knows a thing or two about style. For '31 Days of Denim', he talks about his tryst with denim (the fabric that takes him places) and a hell lot more.

Your first ever denim purchase?

That's a hard one! But I've been wearing denim for as long as I can remember. 

What's your relationship with denim?

Can't really label it (lol).

Denim or food?

Denim is my staple diet.

Does slipping into denim depend upon your mood?

To be frank, denim works for me, no matter what.

Dark wash or light wash jeans?

I'm more of a switcher, I alternate between them.

How often do you wash your jeans?

Umm... I'm quite random here; don't follow a specific cycle!

Slim, relaxed or skinny-fitted jeans?

Somewhere between slim and relaxed.

How do you take denim from AM to PM?

Personally, I don't think denim belongs to a particular timezone/timeline or time of the day.

A denim memory you can never forget...

There's a limit to worn-in jeans — enough said.
