NEW YORK — For Christian Cowan’s Spring/Summer 2027 collection event during New York Fashion Week, the designer drew inspiration from classic feminine silhouettes, reimagined with a cool edge and unexpected textures. Bringing a vintage woman into the modern day, the collection’s color palette is grounded in neutrals and black, punctuated by bold pops of purple, yellow, and red. Lead manicurist Gina Edwards says, “She’s captivating, confident, and completely in tune with who she is and what she wants. The look is moody and mysterious with a dark twist - feminine, powerful, and a little unexpected.”
Bringing a runway-approved look home has never been easier. Magnetic and chrome nails are two of the hottest trends, adding a fun, fashion-forward twist whether you’re heading out for a night on the town or simply looking to elevate your everyday look. Recreate the standout nail looks from Christian Cowan’s show in minutes with Dulcet from the Kiss Core Collection for a classic look, Dive from the Kiss Glam Collection for a chrome finish, or Fangtastic from the Kiss Halloween Collection for a magnetic effect.

HOW GINA EDWARDS CREATED THE CUSTOM-DESIGNED RUNWAY LOOK:
- Inspiration: “For the bespoke nails, I included a playful black design meant to replicate the shapes of a woman. I wanted the look to be feminine and bold.” - Gina Edwards
- Step 1: Apply Fangtastic from the Kiss Halloween Collection keeping the same oval shape
- Step 2: Take black nail paint (gel or regular) and make two half circles that are connected down the middle
- Step 3: Fill in the top and the bottom of the nail with the black nail paint
- Step 4: Add top gel coat and cure for 60 seconds
