Yes, you heard that correctly, perfectly polished manicures are out and two-week-old dishevelled nails are in.

Wondering who on earth is behind this bizarre new movement? Rest assured that the genius behind it is both Gigi Hadid and Dua Lipa's go-to manicurist.
To close Paris Fashion Week’s SS25 season, Miu Miu unsurprisingly sent a slew of poised models, including Alexa Chung and Cara Delevingne, down the catwalk in a selection of ultra-chic ensembles. However, as we know all too well the devil was in the details for the event, in particular the nail art.
Calling up on famed japanese finger artist, @nailsbymei, who over the past few years has rocketed to fame in the nail sphere, thanks to her extremely lengthy clientele list of famed faces and A-list all stars, to curate an unforgettable manicure and pedicure look.
Chipped nails that look as though they were done at home a few weeks ago seemed to be the brief for the occasion. Mei and her team painted each model's finger and toenails with a blush baby pink shade before erasing some of the colour with an acetone soaked paper towel.
For decades a prim and proper, perfectly painted manicure has been the epitome of understated elegance with many booking in a nail appointment every 2-3 weeks to ensure they remain Flawless. Thus, it’s come as a surprise to many as to why one of the world's most acclaimed fashion houses is going against the grain, however, who are we to deny ourselves a seat at the cool table?
