Fun New Nail Looks from butter London Revealed at NYC Fashion Week

As you all probably know fashion week passed earlier this month in New York City. Beyond the amazing new styles and clothing lines many designers released something else new and fun hit the runway too! GLAMED OUT NAILS!

The founding director of butter LONDON, Nonie Creme, designed the nail looks for top shows during fashion week. She came up with fabulous nail designs for designers such as Victoria Beckham, Calvin Klein, Betesy Johnson, Erin Fetherston, and others!
 

On Monday, September 12th, Nonie Creme designed a unique nail look for the one-and-only Betsey Johnson show. She describes the look:
 
“Betsey’s girl this season was influenced by vintage Debbie Harry – sexy, full-blown high octane glamour!  We did a reverse half moon manicure, with a “stair step” (meaning the false nail sits slightly higher than the nail plate – creating that extra “pop” for the catwalk)  holographic glitter tip, in a pointed almond shape.   For the glitter tip, we used Diamond Geezer and a holographic shade that was custom mixed for Betsey, and added a diamond stone to the curved base of each tip.  Union Jack Black was used on the actual nail – creating the reverse half-moon that almost had a “bruised” effect.  Always wanting one more “wow” factor for Betsey, we  added a nail piercing with black baby safety pin.  Rock and roll, fun, sex, glamour!

And on Sunday, September 11th, Nonie and butter LONDON revealed the new butter LONDON Ombré Nail at Yigal Azrouel’s Cut25 presentation and created custom mixes. Nonie notes:

 “We created bespoke mixes for the look at Yigal Azrouel’s Cut25 – Salmon Pink, 80’s Turquoise, and Pastel Pistachio. This is a butter London moment of greatness!  Introducing the “ombré” manicure – softly layered, fabric woven-like nails that perfectly accent the woven jewelry here, the ultimate accessory. This is about visual texture; a loose, artistic nail art- I’m all about “fine art for nails” no palm trees or sunsets please!”

So, what do you all think of these new awesome nail looks? Comment below and let us know!
