Lace Nails

TrendPatternCraft

Nail art that reproduces the pattern of lace fabric on the nail plate: scalloped borders, filigree webbing and small openwork florals, usually rendered in white, ivory or black over a sheer or milky base so the pattern appears to float. The vibe is heirloom-romantic rather than decorative, closer to a lace glove or a vintage doily than to conventional nail art.

Trend context
