Fashion Week Nail Trends Spring 2013: Must-See Manis At Erin Fetherston, VEDA, and Kaelen

Kaelen showed a powerful collection featuring designs with a modern 80s vibe. Sharp lines with rock prints, lucite accents, and pops of sunny neon yellow rounded out a mainly black palette,” Hughes said. “For nails, we went for a high contrast distressed nail using black as the base, a bespoke nude khaki was then layered in jagged strokes towards the bed.”

Hughes used butter LONDON Yummy Mummy and Union Jack Black. For a dual-textured look with “disheveled luxury” the team matted out only the black section with Matte Finish Shine-Free Topcoat.

 


My favorite so far is the modern, geometric look at Veda, above. 

“The nails were inspired by the tie-dye pieces of the collection, which we complemented with a bespoke Cosmic Nail, including a mix of mauve and olive [Toff and Sloane Ranger] with celestial effects,” Hughes said. “Knackered was used as a top coat to give the nails a holographic effect. To add an edge to the look, a glossy black stripe was added [using Union Jack Black] for an unexpected geometric element.”

 


Erin Fetherston was, of course, ethereal, with metallic nails to mimic the effect of jewelry. 

“We used Lillibet’s Jubilee, a silver metallic color with a lilac finish that adds a feminine touch to the rock & roll vintage feel,” Hughes said.

Even if these nail looks are for Spring 2013, you’d be forgiven if you were inspired to run out and try them for fall.
