Summer's nail art trends were gallery-worthy, to say the least.

The mesmerising French swirl took over from the classic French tip, while glossy croc print replaced tortoiseshell and unassuming shades like sepia and bottle green gained all the street cred. But autumn is right around the corner and with the (much-anticipated) cooler weather comes myriad nail looks guaranteed to spark new obsessions.

Ahead, we ask a handful of the hottest nail artists to spill the trends which are slowly but surely taking over salons everywhere, plus how to nail (sorry, sorry!) them at home.

Whether you want to go all out or prefer to stay a little more understated, there's something here for you.

At Refinery29, we’re here to help you navigate this overwhelming world of stuff. All of our market picks are independently selected and curated by us.
