Lil Nas X Stars In Gucci's New "Off The Grid" Campaign

The rapper is joined by King Princess, Jane Fonda, and more.

Gucci is doing what many of us wish we could right now: going off the grid. The brand's latest campaign is its first for Gucci Circular Lines, a collection spawned from the Italian luxury house's initiative for circular production.

Gucci's "Off The Grid" collection uses recycled, organic, bio-based, and sustainably sourced materials, including ECONYL, a regenerated nylon material made from recycled waste. For the campaign, the brand tapped Lil Nas X, King Princess, Japanese artist Miyavi, adventurer and environmentalist David de Rothschild, and Jane Fonda, the 82-year-old actress and activist who was arrested multiple times last year in the fight for climate change, in case you needed a reminder.

The group modeled the genderless luggage, accessories, footwear, and ready-to-wear for a shoot that took place prior to the COVID-19 shutdown, gathering in a rustic treehouse posed to be in the middle of a booming city.

"The collection is the result of teamwork; everybody brought something to it. And in the campaign, too, there is this idea of dialogue among people building something new," said creative director Alessandro Michele in an official statement. "I imagined that we could build a treehouse in a city center, all together, like kids playing in the park. Because all of us need to build this house or to find out that our planet exists, even where it seems it’s not there, or it's far away."
