Find out where JustJohnForReal gets his inspiration in Toronto
teamed up with Gucci to create a new content series called Open House. The idea? To take fans of the brand and site into the homes and neighbourhoods of members of its community.
In a release, the project is described as going “into the homes of [the Community] to explore how the city and culture around them influences their personal styles looking at each person’s fashion choices in the context of their home and city environments.” The hope is that “lovers of Gucci [will] discover new season pieces from the brand in an entirely new way.”
This month, the lens is focused on Toronto with rapper Just John and artist Maya Fuhr opening their homes for the project. We spoke with Just John about his life in Toronto, how it inspired his sound and his favourite hangouts are in the city.“I forged my sound through the vibrancy of Toronto’s DIY art scene. I sharpened my teeth performing at open mics and artist-run venues including a brick and mortar I ran for two years known as Blank Canvas Gallery that has now become our art organization.

When they returned, 89 looks typical to Michele’s flamboyant style were presented; his “antidote” to the repressive fashion climate Gucci supposedly operates in. If you blinked, you might have missed a model holding their hands up in protest.
