Spring 2020 Nail Trends
-
OTT Embellishment
The bling nail art at GCDS (almost) distracted from the creepy-cool contacts. Some manicures were jazzed up with rhinestones, while others received logo nail piercings like this white set.

OTT Embellishment
Julien Macdonald always brings the glamour and for Spring 2020 that glamour extended down to the glittery, #glamazon manicures CND brand ambassador Marian Newman created. There was all manner of embellishment and holographic shine, but the most extra mani featured silver nails topped with chain tassels.

Things got curvy at Courrèges with yellow-orange and white outlines on three sides of nails. The black base lent a moodier, graphic finish.

The French manis at Oscar de la Renta involved a Creamsicle twist. Miss Pop complemented models' skin tones with neutral bases and warm pastels. Here, Zoya Nail Polish in Arizona ($10) was used on the tips and to add dots on the moons.

Anyone who considers neutral nails basic should see the extreme stiletto nails at Tom Ford. The muted pink nail polish was flattering to a range of skin tones and juxtaposed the deadly shape. Nail artist Mei Kawajiri slicked nails with Tom Ford Nail Lacquer in Mink Brule ($37).

The nail shape at Marta Jakubowski was a cool blend of almond and stiletto. And the periwinkle color was perfect for spring.

Kro Vargas created the extra nails for Lou Dallas. The square, talon-like claws provided enough space for the embellishments, intricate details and patterns. The OTT nails were topped with chains and dangling clouds.

Forget rhinestone tears because the monochromatic nail art at I Love Pretty was equally stunning. There were sparkling accent nails combined with high-contrast, white-and-black digits.

We could call the nail art at Ulla Johnson another take on the French mani with those partially squared-off outlines. Paintbox Creative Director Mabelyn Martin chose terracotta and deep moss green accent colors to play off the collection.

Marian Newman brilliantly coordinated the nails to the jewelry at Roland Mouret for a striking effect. The hypnotic strokes of bold colors tied in beautifully with the agate, lapis and fordite stones.
