FINAL year law student Atish Jogi is one of the most stylish men on campus.
His swag—in his own words—is on level “one hunnid.” As GQs Best Dressed Reader 2012 this is not hard to believe.
His hobbies include a mixture of sports he loves and creative art. He plays indoor cricket at the Sandton arena and runs with both the Braamfie and Rosebank run club’s. Artistically he is a photographer with a particular fascination with urban landscapes, street life and fashion.
Why did you choose to study law at Wits?
Wits is a premier academic institution and I really wanted to do law because I want to be involved in finding solutions to some of the country’s problems.
How did you win your GQ Best Dressed Reader title last year?
We had to submit photos of five everyday looks. These photos then went through a selection process by the GQ team, where they selected the top three finalists. Thereafter readers had to vote for their favourite from the top three-which happened to be me.
Is it then safe to say that you’re style conscious?
Well, yes. I don’t plan outfits or anything but I do make an effort to be presentable and wear clothes that make me look and feel good.
Do you think other guys on campus have any sense of style?
Not really. Some guys do try to make an effort but most are the track pants and sneakers types. All I’ll say to those guys is that women appreciate men who dress well.
What are you wearing today?
Vintage Nike Air Max One’s, G-Star Raw jeans, a Country Road cotton v-neck, a Polo jersey and Gucci glasses. I know it seems like I’m obsessed with brands but I’m really not.
Do you have a style icon?
Yes, my close personal friend and model Masego ‘Maps’ Maponyane. His style is unique and fresh.
