After a few days of back-to-back runway showcases, New York Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2023 is coming to a close. And while all eyes are often on the garments and the glam — the iconic nail trends this season were just as major.

Alice & Olivia’s Nostalgic Tips

With five completely different nail looks that complement the collection, this colorful set features detailed art of cult-fave snack brands (like Doritos and KitKat) on each tip using polishes from JINsoon.

Sandy Liang’s Initial Nails

Spelling out the word “princess” with gothic-style initials, the brand tapped Orly for its very on-trend runway nails (ICYMI: Kourtney Kardashian and JLO are fans of the buzzy mani).

Brandon Maxwell’s Wine-Colored Tips

Using a few coats of JINsoon’s Audacity, the nails for this runway showcase were kept simple and sultry.

Mark Grgurich

Bronx and Banco’s Luxe Chrome

Chrome nails have been a serious trend on red carpets and beyond — and this gold-hued mani adds a sense of luxury to the looks.

LoveShackFancy’s Gilded Roses

Neutral nails are forever a go-to slay ... But these hand-painted roses à la Gina Edwards and imPRESS take the staple look to new romantic heights.

Jason Wu’s “Lip Gloss” Nails

Lip gloss nails are one of 2023’s breakout trends, and this buzzy high-shine manicure is thanks to Deborah Lippmann’s Brand New Day polish.

Kim Shui’s Bedazzled Initials

Handcrafted by manicurist Narina Chan, these bedazzled nails are giving all things *extra* in the best possible way.

KISS

PatBo’s Colorful French Tips

Using KISS press-ons as the perfect base for her nail looks, Kiss brand ambassador Gina Edwards created a French tip with eye-catching colors to complement the brand’s bold garments.

Proenza Schouler’s Messy Black French Tips

Using JINsoon’s lacquers, the manicures were kept a bit more grunge, with black French tips painted on sans clean lines.

Tory Burch

Tory Burch’s Barely-There Mani

Tenoverten’s Anne (a sheer, ballerina pink lacquer) kept the models’ nails minimal, understated, and clean.
