From Red Carpets To Lavish Weddings Celeb Nail Trends So Worth Copying
Celebs are more influential than ever, right down to their fingertips.
This year has been one of classic and cutting-edge manicures, so we rounded up our fave celebrity nail trends so far. And we’ll help you copy these chic looks with the perfect products!
Selena Gomez’s Cherry Red Nails
Selena Gomez is back making music — and in a massive way. She sported some fierce Cherry Red nails for her Sunset Blvd music video, matching the saucy and sexy vibe of the song. Cherry Red is a hot color this year and after loving up on Butter Yellow this spring, we’re more than ready for bold colors.
Get the look with OPI’s Big Apple Red Polish (yes, it’s called apple, but it looks like cherry, okay?)
Sydney Sweeney’s Brown Croc Nails
Sydney rocked like a croc at the 2025 Hollywood Beauty Awards with this reptilian set of nails. Her crocodile-inspired nails in a mocha brown matched her croc corset. The short manicure didn’t need to be long to have a big impact, proving the importance of texture. We sincerely hope Sydney’s crocodile fit is faux; thankfully, we know the nails are.

Cynthia Erivo’s Wicked Nails
Frankly, we could feature every single one of Cynthia Erivo’s manicures on this list, but her Wicked claws for the movie’s London premiere are too glittering not to include. They’re practically as long as her fingers, creating a witchy, yet whimsical appearance. The multi-colored nails are studded with gems, rhinestones, and other textured elements, creating intense drama that rivals the film’s Defying Gravity scene.

Hailey Bieber’s Champagne Chrome Nails
We love to keep up with our girl Hailey’s nails! While the Glazed Donut trend is still going strong, she’s giving us something fresh to adore. Hailey’s Champagne Chrome claws have the same sheen as the Glazed Donut nails but with a neutral hue and gilded look. Here’s how you do neutral while still being resplendent.

Ego Nwodim’s Button Nails
Ego Nwodim killed it at the Met Gala this year, and so did her manicurist. To match her chic outfit adorned with colorful buttons, she got a sleek black manicure with matching buttons. This is a tough one to recreate at home, but worth a try because this quirky look has it all — edginess, vibrancy, surprise.
You’ll need to find your own buttons, but you can use this Gucci Crystal Black Vernis à Ongles Nail Polish.
Yara Shahidi’s Bronzed French Manicure
Yara Shahidi also brought stellar claws to the 2025 Met Gala. She embraced the French manicure trend, with a thick tip in a shiny bronze. Rather than start the tip at the end of her finger, they’re lower on her nail, for a chunky look. And the bronzed-chrome hue looks luxurious as hell.
Use OPI’s Bronzed by the Sun Chrome Powder for this look.
Demi Lovato’s Nude Wedding Nails
Nothing wrong with nude, people! The year’s dramatic nails are fun, but we’re ready to say “I do” to Demi Lovato’s subtle wedding manicure. The soft, rounded shape, the pinkish-nude shade, and the gentle shine make for an elegant bridal look. And with a rock like that on her finger, who needs flashy nails?
Try Ella + Mila’s Pour the Bubble Polish.
Gwen Stefani’s Floral Manicure
Gwen Stefani knows how to show up and show out with her nails, and this groovy floral manicure is a prime example. Her lengthy square nails feature different colored flowers with dainty rhinestones in the center. She’s flaunting summer pastels and incorporating a few darker colors. It feels retro, yet timeless — just like Gwen.

Joey King’s Checkered-Polka Dot Nails
Joey King isn’t afraid to step out of the box with her style, which was evident in her flamboyant Met Gala look, which we think hit the theme on the head. Along with her fun look, her sassy nails featured black and white checkers and maroon and yellow polka dots — so capricious! This kind of manicure turns a bland outfit into a daring look.

Sabrina Carpenter’s Polka Dot Nails
Joey isn’t the only one riding the polka dot train. Sabs showed off her dainty clear and white polka dot manicure in an Instagram post celebrating Manchild’s wild success. Her medium-length oval nails were a glossy clear color, delicately dotted with white specks for an endearing style. We want to say she may have also served these nails in the video, but it’s tough to tell.

Maren Morris’s Glossy Black Nails
We’re going back to black, and couldn’t be more buzzed about it. Maren Morris brought the goth glam with these glossy, ink black almond nails. Black is always gorgeous, and we’re not afraid to rock the dark colors in the dead of summer. They’re simple but still make a statement. And that statement is “I’m a badass bitch.”

Taylor Swift’s Sparkly Purple Nails
Last but not least, the iconic Taylor Swift. To celebrate the regained ownership of her music masters, Taylor sported an enchanting sparkly purple manicure. Like the occasion, these nails are cheerful and cool. The win called for a special manicure, and this delivered. Celebrate your next special occasion with this glittery purple manicure.
