Coffin Nails
Also called ballerina, a long shape with a straight, flat tip resembling a coffin or ballerina slipper.
Trend context
Key fact
Coffin/ballerina has held a top-three position in NAILS Magazine's annual most-requested shape rankings for several years running, and a 2026 market analysis identified it as the fastest-growing press-on shape segment at roughly 7.7% annual growth -- with the newer short 'baby coffin' length driving much of that expansion.
