This summer, we’ve seen a decidedly minimalist approach to nails. It’s been all about sheer, natural-looking colors, milky shades, and a sharp departure from loud designs. Fall nails will continue to fall into the quiet luxury trends we’ve seen, while three-dimensional nail art and pops of colors (including an olive green that we’re coining the dirty martini nail) will keep things interesting. We talked to celebrity manicurist Elle Gerstein for the lowdown on all things fall nails.

If you’re a fan of the Loewe balloon pumps, this 3D fall nail trend has your name written on it. “Inflatables have been used on the runway to create exaggerated proportions, and now manicures are doing the same using 3D gel,” says Gerstein.
2. Dirty Martini Green

Dirty martinis might be your Friday night drink of choice, but now you can have nails to match. Olive green will be one of fall’s biggest and most unexpected manicure trends.
3. Geometry 101

Geometric grid patterns dominated F/W 23 runways. Gerstein anticipates these grids will also find a home in nail art this fall.
