This autumn, nail trends are moving into cooler tones, dramatic hues, retro inspiration, and shorter lengths. We spoke with professional manicurists about the top runway-inspired nail styles for fall 2023.
1. Chrome Nails
Chrome nails remain popular for fall with creative twists beyond all-over mirror finishes. Try multi-chrome colors or chrome nail art.
2. Natural Nude Nails
Minimalist nude manicures will stay on trend as people give nails a break between manicure appointments. Keep things healthy with a sheer buffed look.
3. Modern French Manicures
Thin, crisp French tips are back in a big way. Customize the accent nail color to match any outfit. Add glam elements like chrome or designs.
4. Aura Nail Art
Aura or gradient nails fade from dark to light for a mesmerizing ombre effect. These look great with airbrushed detailing.
