Barb.pro has prepared for you a great selection of nail design trends that will be top this season. We've been following the Instagram feed and the world's catwalks, and now we're sharing the insights. And we'll also tell you what nail design will be the trend of the 20th.

Fall-winter manicure: from classic to extravagant

The tradition of decorating your nails "according to the season" is becoming a thing of the past. A beautiful manicure is a complete freedom of expression. For the fall season it is enough to choose warm shades of nail polish, and for the winter season - cold shades, including black. The rest is up to you! Therefore, some types of design that are relevant in summer, will be in trend at the end of the year.

What invariably remains in the top?

French - classic and improvised (multicolored, glitter);
ombré, especially in the "baby boomer" technique;
nude manicure - with glossy and matte top;
design "skittles nails" (all nails are painted in different colors).

And now let's consider the actual ideas and novelties of manicure, which you should definitely try today!

Animal print is a trendy nail design

Animal colors are still popular! The most fashionable manicure of summer remains in the top and in the cold season. Animal colors are joined by another one - tortoise nails, the print "under the turtle".

Animal-print in the fall-winter season will "sound" in a dark palette with modest accents of gold glitter. This is one of the successful manicure options for short nails this year.

Thanks to this design, mixing 4-5 shades in a manicure is no longer considered bad taste. However, fashion dictates its nuances: today nails are painted in shades of one color, often smoothing the sharp transition with a matte top. However, playing on contrasts is also welcome!

Nail piercings - manicure for the extravagant

A few years ago, masters promoted this unusual design. The epathetic novelty was not met very warmly, and it seemed that this trend was forgotten. But no: in recent months, girls again began to complement nail extensions with piercings. Korean nail studio Unistella has gone even further: masters attach not only simple rings, but also pendants and even rods on nails (see the first two photos of the selection).

The accent on the thumb is the trick of the season

And this design for a long time has consolidated its position among the trends of nail fashion. Painting, glitter, decoration with sliders - any decor on the thumb will be appropriate. The main condition is to combine the design with the color scheme of the manicure.

Veri Peri is the color of the year

Don't forget about the official shade of this year, which is defined by the Pantone Color Institute! In the run-up to spring, it will become indispensable in nail art. Cornflower is one of the fashionable manicure trends, and we still have almost a year to try it on our nails.

Foil decor is a brilliant solution

This decorative material is a universal helper! It is suitable for nude and geometric manicure, combines with sliders and stones. Golden foil fits perfectly into the concept of fall manicure. But it is only necessary to change the shades of gel-lacquer, and it will successfully complement the New Year's design.

Nail inscriptions - mood indicator

Slider or hand-painted - for a beautiful design it does not matter. The trick of such a manicure is in the original choice of "motto". It can be a compliment to yourself, an emotional appeal or even a swear word. Manufacturers of goods for manicure produce entire collections of sliders with inscriptions, which are still sought after by customers of nail studios.

Amber nails - bright manicure of fall

This unusual design was tested by fashionistas not so long ago, but is now gaining popularity. The warm color scheme fits perfectly into the concept of seasonal image! And the best addition for such a beautiful manicure is a thin line of gold glitter framing the nails.

Trends in nail design

Let's look into the not-so-distant future: stylists have already determined what nail trends will unfold after the New Year. Despite the unpredictability of fashion, some trends are already claiming to be popular. We will tell you what manicure will be relevant next year.

Trending shades according to Pantone

The Color Institute has created a palette of 14 tones that will be trendy this season. You can use them in your manicure too! Keep this mini-collection to make it easier to choose a shade of nail polish at the master.

We picked up examples of nail designs to demonstrate how you can combine fashionable shades.

Fashionable nail shape

Nail fashion provides complete freedom for experimentation. Only experimental shapes - sharp stilettos, "ballerina" and tube-pipes - are a thing of the past. However, there are two trends that are worthy of your attention.

For a classic and elegant manicure choose a graceful "almond". More daring girls do the build-up in the form of a beveled square, which is also called lipstick nails. "Lipstick" nails conquered social networks a year ago, but did not become a trend. In the same year, Western fashion designers used the form of a beveled square for manicure mannequins. The models' nails were grown to an impressive length, emphasizing the eccentricity of the image.

Nail Design Trends

Nail fashion of the new season is an abstract painting of watercolor strokes, geometric patterns and a mix of styles. Nude is still relevant, which successfully emphasizes both grown-up and short nails. Matte finish remains popular.

Other types of design that promise to "shoot" in the current season:

Manicure in polka dots. The ideal background for such a design is nude. For daring girls there is a more interesting option - to decorate the peas in the form of tiny rhinestones.
Transparent french. Unusual, but worth your attention! Long bright nails of oval shape and absolutely transparent smile line will cause a furor in your surroundings.
Jelly nails. "Jelly" nails - a successful idea for summer manicure. The build-up with transparent bright varnish was first tried 2 years ago, and today this trend is again winning the hearts of fashionistas.
Rose quartz. This delicate girlish manicure is very similar to marble design. However, it is characterized by translucency, which makes the manicure more elegant.

Now let's get acquainted with these types of design closer!
