From a mirage of metallics, to a frosting of glitter and the chic magnetism of a glossy red, we’ve rounded up the best autumn/winter manicure and nail art trends direct from the catwalks…
OSCAR DE LA RENTA
Deep reds are perennially classic. Oscar de la Renta showed us a masterclass in just how perfectly shiny, maroon nails can work with a beautiful black dress at the AW19 show. Attention-seeking shades require nourished hands, head to Margaret Dabbs for their famed Supreme Manicure before adding a coat of Ranunculus or Snap Dragon; Margaretdabbs.co.uk
HALPERN
A modern take on metallics, ombre nails were seen at their best backstage at Halpern where shades of blue, blush and silver blended into each other from base to tip. If you’re looking for something more daring and decorative, this could be the look for you. Tips & Toes offer the best in glitter and chrome manicures; Tipsandtoes.com
GIORGIO ARMANI
According to Pastels Salon, Dubai, we typically go “richer, darker and more autumnal” at this time of year. Giorgio Armani’s AW19 show saw models commandeering the catwalk with high-shine navy nails. Navy presents a more edgy alternative to deep reds, yet isn’t as gothic as black - meet your perfect inbetweener; Pastels-salon.com
BORA AKSU
Bora Aksu’s entire beauty look was bewitching. Snow Queen-like models sported ethereal silver eye shadow and coordinating glittery nails. This subtle amount of nail sparkle is perfect for adding a little texture and shine to a festive look. Opt for short rounded manicures or almond-shaped nails. For a flawless finish, head to the fashion set’s favourite haven, N.Bar; Nbaruae.com
ANTONIO MARRAS
Designer Antonia Marras sent models down the runway with immaculately clear nails adorned with a simple black raised dot placed thoughtfully at the base of the nail. This simple but impactful look is a minimalist’s dream. Head to the Art Bar at The Nail Spa, they will cater to your every design whim; Thenailspa.com
