Remember those gorgeous, flower-strewn faces on the Preen runway for S/S ’17?
The fashion house’s latest show, which took place in London over the weekend, delivered an infinitely more wearable – and just as pretty – take on the trend: teeny tiny blooms dotted on bare nails.
In a show trussed up with spring blooms on everything from ruffled silk dresses to gossamer-spun socks, it was a fitting tribute to the northern hemisphere’s incoming season.
Manicurist Marian Newman created the petal-perfect look, telling Elle UK she set dried flowers onto a layer of clear base coat, then brushed on a clear top coat to seal.
“If you google tiny dried flowers so many come up to buy,” Newman said.
We know what we’re doing this weekend.
