Metallic

This season we see a lot of designers that have opted for metallic gold and silver nails but instead of allowing them to shine they were painted with a matte top coat this time. At Cividini we saw a solid gold nail with flakes of silver, on Michael Costello runway nails were painted a matte shade of gold and at Phillip Lim’s show, it was inspired by studs, zippers, and textures in order to create a distressed metallic nail.

Black Accents

This season we saw plenty of leathery black nails which were decked around the fingers of Vera Wang’s runway models.The modern brushstroke style was very Gothic. It was mainly designed to look like a freehand paint stripe applied at the center of the nail leaving the sides untouched. This was finished with a matte coating on the top. This look was created by the artist Jin Soon Choi.

Color Blocking

This season we witnessed a lot of bold and pop up shades which were a serious hit on the runways. At Jeremy Scott and Tanya Taylor shows we saw these clashing combinations and psychedelic patterns which gave these nail designs a festive look.

Graphic French

This year many nail artists opted for a clever and unique take on a traditional style by utilizing colors and by playing with the shapes. At Cushnie Et Ochs show we saw asymmetrical white stripes with a nude base. There were graphics with the shades of red and white polish at Rebecca Minkoff’s runway and on the Carmen Marc Valvo`s runway we saw the tips were in shades of black and white with another color added between the two to create a cool graphic effect.

Ladylike Neutrals

This year ignoring all the summer runway trends Marc Jacobs opted for nothing but plain neutral nails. Our favorite picks of this season include unique flattering beiges and nudes in shades of mushroom. It’s a classy look and something you can never wrong with.

Embellished Cuticles

This season we saw another runway trend by nail artist Tracy Lee where the nails have been painted in a nude color. After that a stripe of gold glitter or shimmery colors come along the cuticle giving a lovely effect to your nails.

Wire Nails

This is by far this season`s most famous trend-Wire Nails. It is very eye catching with thin golden wires decorated on your nails finished with a simple clear or black nail polish. This look was mainly seen during New York Fashion Week.
