Feast your eyes on some of the must-see nail trends that will be popping up come the Fall/Winter 2013 season! NYFW designers — DANNIJO, Kate Spade, Nicole Miller and more — had their models’ nails painted in an array of colors, all ranging from deep boysenberry hues to electric hot pinks. No nail look was complete without some studs and lace for an extra dose of edgy flair. Read on to see what other colors, textures and designs you’ll have to look forward to for this year’s fall season!

Designer: Nicole Miller
Lead Manicurist: Katie Hughes, butter LONDON Global Colour Ambassador
The Scoop: Inspired by tomboys, Nicole’s collection was a nod to girls who dress like boys.
Nail Look: Katie created three nail looks for Nicole Miller:
Look 1: Stag Do
*As always, Katie began the looks with the butter LONDON Nail Foundation and finished with butter LONDON Hardwear Quick Top Coat
Designer: Kate Spade
Lead Manicurist: Deborah Lippmann
The Scoop: Studio 54-inspired Fall 2013 Kate Spade collection
The Look: The models donned two nail variations accented with a pyramid stud, reminiscent of studs in the collection, with a long almond-shaped nail.
The “pink zing” shade used on some of the models was achieved by layering three lacquers. Start with two coats of an opaque pure white lacquer called Amazing Grace, follow with one coat of I Kissed A Girl (a poppin’ pink from the Run the World (Girls) set), and finish with one coat of Between The Sheets, a tantalizing fuchsia.
The edgy black nail seen on other models was created using two coats of Fade To Black, a vinyl record black. Both variations were complete with a pyramid stud strategically placed 1/8 of an inch above the cuticle, in the center of each nail.
