The Met Gala is back for another year of fundraising and festivities, and some of our favorite celebrities have been bringing the heat nonstop tonight. The 2024 theme is “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion” with a dress code of “The Garden of Time.” Standout moments of the night have brought us everything from ’90s-inspired skinny or barely-there eyebrows, floral hair accessories, and lots of body glitter, but our favorite trend has to be the many different twists on the classic french manicure.
The nail look, first popularized in the early ’00s, has seen such a resurgence in recent years that it practically deserves its own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. It has become synonymous with formal red carpet events thanks to its versatility, but that same aspect also makes it a perfect manicure for day-to-day wear. Just tonight alone, the trend has been spotted on Cardi B, Doja Cat, Lil Nas X, Gigi Hadid, and more. Even better? No two looks are the same, proving once again how adaptable the trend can be.
There are still a few looks coming down the white carpet, but in the meantime, see some of the best french manicures of the night so far. Between Doja Cat’s claw-like set and Hadid’s 3D floral accents, you’ll have nail inspiration to pull from for years to come.
