Back in March, as the world moved indoors and grappled with the strangest, most uncertain time in recent memory, an unexpected thing happened: we rediscovered nature. Daily excursions were limited to hour-long walks and we suddenly had the time to stop and appreciate how wonderful it was to wander through a tree-lined park or to mark the changing seasons by the sudden blossoming of beautifully colored flowers. Alessandro Michele, the creative director of Gucci,<\/a> clearly felt drawn to the natural world\u2014if his recently-unveiled collaboration with The North Face is anything to go by.<\/p>\n

In a campaign film directed by Daniel Shea, a group of eclectic, well-dressed hippie types gallivant through the Alps, wearing pieces from the new collab. The end result is Woodstock meets Into The Wild<\/em>, but with geometric-printed reversible puffer coats, baby pink ‘Jackie’ bags, and North Face-logoed canvas tents. Michele raided The North Face’s archives for the collection, which takes vintage silhouettes from the iconic outdoors brand, and brings them to life with Michele’s signature retro-chic prints<\/a> and 70s-inspired color palette. A mismatch of both brands’ logos appears on merch, including hiking-style backpacks, boots, and socks.<\/p>\n
