Fall 2024 Runway Transformed into Stunning Nail Art
Article by Alisha Rimando | Published in 2024
The Fall 2024 runway shows have set the stage for an exciting season of fashion, with trends that not only capture the imagination but also provide endless inspiration for creative nail art. At GlossaryLive.com, these runway trends are meticulously analyzed and transformed into wearable art that your clients can flaunt every day. Under the expert guidance of World Champion Alisha Rimando, this season’s nail designs are all about embracing the latest fashion trends and translating them into chic, eye-catching looks that will leave a lasting impression.
This season, the runways were awash with pinks and stripes, with monochromatic pink looks and varied striped patterns dominating the collections of major fashion houses such as Stella McCartney, Prada, and Chanel. The use of soft mauve tones, combined with pinstripes and bold color blocks, made these shows truly stand out. These elements are perfect for creating modern, elegant nail art that reflects the vibrant energy of the season. Consider designing nails that incorporate various pink hues, accentuated by either subtle or striking stripes, to bring a touch of runway glamour to everyday wear.

The collections from Etro, Rochas, and Rabanne showcased an intriguing blend of blue and green tones. The addition of argyle prints offered a fresh and sophisticated approach to nail art, ideal for clients who love to stay ahead of the fashion curve. The argyle pattern, with its classic yet modern appeal, can be beautifully adapted into nail designs that are both stylish and distinctive.

Meanwhile, Valentino, Dolce & Gabbana, and Prabal Gurung introduced an array of chic, formal looks, characterized by luxurious textures. From fluffy outerwear to reflective tinsels, these textures added depth and dimension to the runway. “This cozy but chic fall look demanded some texture and reflection,” Alisha Rimando explained, emphasizing the importance of these elements in creating nail art that is both trendy and timeless. By incorporating textured finishes and reflective accents into your nail designs, you can capture the essence of these runway looks and offer your clients something truly special.
