Playful Length

Masha Popova's fall 2024 show saw nails done in this exaggerated claw length that is equal parts fun and dramatic.

PatBO combined two of our favorite trends for fall: the cool-girl French manicure with a hint of edgy black.

Cool French

Nail artist Pattie Yankee paid homage to the Pamella Roland collection's inspiration—Belgium—with this understated nail look. It's a French manicure that is only distinguished by a change in polish texture, not color.

Neutral Upgrade

Put down the sheer pink polish. For fall 2024, neutral shades are getting an upgrade.

“Inspired by papercut dolls and Diana Ross’ iconic style, the inspiration behind this collection is a unique blend of creativity – big hair, long eyelashes, and unexpected opaque, neutral glossy nails. To complement the look, we wanted to keep the hands looking clean and buffed, playing with barely-there neutrals like CND’s Bare Chemise, Field Fox and Satin Pajamas,” nail artist JinSoon says in a statement.

Neutral Upgrade

Nail artist Bana Jarjour (@banicured) was behind the cool navy nails spotted at Tory Burch, using products by Essie. "While they initially appear black, a closer look reveals a subtle and sophisticated navy, paying homage to Tory Burch’s inspiration of architectural precision and bold silhouettes–each nail became a miniature work of high-shine art," says the brand.

Neutral Upgrade

Elegant, long nails done in natural shades of stone, coffee, and sand are also huge for fall 2024.

At Tiffany Brown, nails were done in a subtle shimmer micro French. 'Tiffany's collection is subtle with the right amount of gold shimmer. I like to think of this collection as subtle sensations," says lead nail artist Tara Haye.
