Months after Selena Gomez gave chrome manicures her stamp of approval, Florence Pugh is co-signing the trend at the Dune 2 London premiere, and we are obsessed.
Out-of-this-world nail art has become increasingly popular in recent years, with talented manicurists working with innovative gel technology to create 3D shapes, add intricate embellishments, and layer on different colors and textures. A perfect example of this artistry came courtesy of Florence Pugh on Thursday night, who made an appearance on the Dune 2 red carpet in London sporting the ultimate sci-fi manicure.
Blink and you might have missed it – after all, Pugh’s intergalactic Valentino hooded gown and show-stopping make-up were already spectacle enough. But her molten fingertips caught our eye.
Created by nail artist Anouska Anastasia, Pugh’s press-on manicure featured a bronze chrome base and celestial gel swirls – snake-like in form – that were rubbed with silver chrome to form a metal finish. Oh, and there were gemstones.
Nails like these prove you can have just as much fun – and get equally creative – with your fingertips as you can with your fashion on a big night out. Yes, they’re a smaller part of an ensemble, but those details make a difference. Expect to see Florence’s nails on manicure mood boards going forward.
