MANICURE MUSE: Etro Fall '13

MANICURE MUSE: Etro Fall ’13

When geometric kaleidoscope prints are mixed with biker babes, you know the result is going to be pretty rad. Etro’s Fall ’13 collection nailed it. Veronica Etro created armor for the urban woman by fusing bold geometric prints and colors with structured silhouettes. She describes, “it’s more about being tough and strong and dressing as a way of protecting yourself.” Don’t even think about messing with an Etro girl. Even in a cut-away gown, these looks can kill.

To emulate this look, I used Noir by YSL, Rare by Illamasqua, and black by Color Club’s Art Duo.

To get these Ladyfingers:

1. Freehand paint the top portion of your nail black with unfinished edges

2. Paint the remainder of the nail neon yellow letting it overlap slightly with the black

MANICURE MUSE: Etro 2

3. Using a nail art brush, outline long skinny connecting triangles with extended points

MANICURE MUSE: Etro 3

4. Fill in the bottom of the triangles with black

MANICURE MUSE: Etro Final

 

5. Top it off with top coat

    Wow, this is really interesting! I thought you had used nail art brush to blend the colours. Turns out you layered them over for that wonderful effect! I love it! So unique and queer (in good way of course!)
