Metallic nails made a significant impact, with Alice + Olivia presenting opulently encrusted designs inspired by Shakespearean drama. These nails featured rich metallic hues complemented by gemstone accents, offering a luxurious and dramatic aesthetic.
3. Elevated Neutrals
Neutral tones were reimagined with innovative textures and finishes. Kim Shui introduced embossed crocodile patterns on nails, adding depth to classic shades, while Christopher John Rogers opted for hyperrealistic neutral finishes, providing a fresh take on minimalist elegance.
4. Transparent Textures
Sheer and translucent designs gained popularity, with snake and lace motifs hand-painted to mimic delicate fabrics. Kim Shui's collection featured nails with intricate snake patterns, and The Blonds showcased lace-inspired designs, both emphasizing the allure of transparency.

Circular elements became a focal point, with designs incorporating O-shaped cutouts and tonal variations. At Kim Shui, nails featured circular cutouts creating a modern and edgy look, while Christian Cowan's show included tonal designs with varying opacities, adding a subtle yet striking dimension.
