In nail fashion, the era of quiet aesthetics has arrived, where style is defined not by the brightness of the polish, but by refined shades, shape, and details. That's why the nails of a "luxury woman" are no longer red or done in a basic French style. Here's what trendy manicures look like and which designs will elevate your appearance
Milky nude
A soft, light beige or milky shade is the epitome of elegance. It suits any skin tone, visually elongates the fingers, and always looks neat. This is the color most often chosen by women for whom luxury means restraint.
Black, but with gloss or satin
Deep black lacquer with a mirror shine is not about gothic style, but about strength and status. It looks especially striking on short square nails or paired with an accent nail with gold decor. This season, black is the new nude.
Caramel, cappuccino, cocoa
These warm shades have become a new synonym for style. They appear deeper than beige but not intrusive, as if nails are meant to be cocoa-colored. These designs are perfect for women who want to appear confident without shouting about it.
Sheer pink with fine design
Micro-pearls, thin lines, touches of light glitter, or a "glass" shine—these details don't scream for attention, but captivate. This is the old money style in manicure, where nothing is excessive, and everything is about the details.
Metallic French
A classic manicure with a metallic tip (gold, platinum, graphite) is a modern take on luxury. It remains understated but adds a hint of chic. An ideal choice for parties or business events.
