We celebrated the last day of spring 2012 New York Fashion Week with a final show that spotlighted dark, urbane nails.
This season, manicures were in a heightened state of bliss – in Lucite, gold foiling, high shine gray, and glam styles:
Many thanks to our entire team who worked tirelessly this week doing some of the best nails I’ve ever seen! They were the most delicate, refined and gorgeous looks I can imagine. Here are some of the early comments from designers:
“Just have to tell you how amazing the nails looked and that people have not stopped asking me about them since Monday. Please send my thank you to the team and I truly appreciate the support and collaboration. PERFECTION! Looking forward to working together next season, cant wait actually as I’m now looking at nails in a whole new light! You guys are fantastic.” – Norman Ambrose
“Yesterday’s event was one of a kind; I felt transported into a magical land, and this, thanks to your support and CND. Love you ladies from Diego and me.” - Luz Solarez of Diego Binetti
The designer: Indian-born designer of ornate, intricately detailed red carpet gowns that are sold in the best stores in the world. MORE
Fashion week is almost over and I’m so looking forward to this day, (but a little sad it’s coming to a close).
On the docket are beautiful designers whom we love and are so honored to work with. The team has outdone itself with nails so rich and special. Let me show you:
The designer: Successful since 2004 with a refined collection of classic American sportswear with a romantic, masculine-feminine refinement.
The collection: Loose-fitting layered pieces – zippered two toned pants, gorgeous pale translucent raincoats, flowing, sheer dresses. Easy, chic and comfortable.

The designer: Milly by Michelle Smith has a celebrity following (Gwyneth Paltrow, Beyonce and Victoria Beckham) as well has representation from the finest retailers in the business…all in the front row to see smart, stylish and modern looks.
The collection: Bold, geometric and intelligent clothes in cobalt, vermilion, jade and tangerine. Properly retro and fabulously modern!

The designer: Wayne Lee’s vision of futuristic fashion was honed during her years as a buyer for popular fashion haunt Barneys NY.
The collection: The ‘Bird of Prey’ theme set the stage for the mostly black and white collection with periodic blocks in vibrant royal blue. Feminine draping and body flattering shapes on top…masculine structure and strength below the waist.

The designers: The Blond design duo made their name in corsetry but have a cult following for their showmanship, artistry and ability to thrill!!!
