Geometric nails are the upcoming biggest trend this season, it’s true

Nail trends are cyclical, just like fashion trends. Geometric nails dominated the early 2010s. I clearly recall falling in love with Wah! Topshop’s nail pop-ups had me spellbound with their geometric nail art designs, which they had honed to an exquisite degree. We were all rushing to make appointments for nail art because of those geometric squares and abstract triangles with negative space. Or, if you’re like me, try to recreate the look at home but fail terribly since your hands are shaky.

I’m here to tell you that geometric nails feel finally seem fresh again for 2023 after a long sabbatical. So much so that Wethrift’s trend analysts have observed an increase of 243% in Google searches for geometric nails.
Nail art trend searches on Pinterest have increased by 89%. The #geometricnails hashtag on TikTok has 1.4 million views, demonstrating how popular it is there as well. The stars are on board too, with Vanessa Hudgens receiving a geometric monochrome manicure from Hailey Bieber’s nail tech, Zola Ganzorigt.The appeal of the trend is that you can embrace it wholeheartedly with vibrant geometric designs or give it a subtle nod with more understated geometric shapes, whether they are negative space shapes or are only used as accent nails.

Additionally, the trend works well with any color scheme and looks striking in both monochrome and vibrant manicure colors. Who knew that geometry could be so fashionable?
