With celebrities such as Hailey Bieber and Bella Hadid sporting the look, partial manicures are having a real moment.
The trend ranges from embracing negative space to coloured tips and geometric patterns - basically keep it simple for the most impact.
Alicia Torello, nail artist to Anne Hathaway, told WWD these types of manicures have been trending for a while, but have blown up recently during the coronavirus pandemic. She noted they are easy to create at home and last longer since regrowth isn’t as noticeable.
