"6 Runway-Inspired Nail-Art Ideas\\nThe runway is both a showcase and an inspiration for nail art. We asked five nail virtuosos to come up with designs based on some of the wildest prints and patterns for fall.\\n\\\"The first step was a couple of coats of black polish. Then we added microbeads, studs, and rhinestones from the craft store and glued everything in place with dots of topcoat.\\\"\\n\\n \u2014Ginny and Donne Geer, [heynicenails.com](http://www.heynicenails.com)\\n\\\"I love 3-D texture and bold color. The flowers are special flexible ones I got in Japan. They were white, but I painted them with polish and a tiny nail-art brush.\\\"\\n\\n\u2014Julie Kandalec, nail artist\\n\\\"Originally I thought I would use real lace on the tips, but hand-painting the design looked cooler. The Swarovski stones add a gorgeous, luxe touch.\\\"\\n\\n\u2014Maki Sakamoto, nail artist\\n\\\"I wanted the black lines to have an electric feel. I painted the whole nail neon green, the top third turquoise, and the bottom third blue, then added the stripes on top.\\\"\\n\\n\u2014Fleury Rose, [fleuryrosenails.tumblr.com](http://www.fleuryrosenails.tumblr.com)\\n\\\"I started with pink polish followed by a pink crackle. Then I used a sponge to fade black polish up from the cuticle and a black nail-art pen for all the details.\\\"\\n\\n\u2014Sophie Harris-Greenslade, [theillustratednail.com](http://www.theillustratednail.com)\\n\\\"The graphic '60s pattern really stood out to me, plus the color scheme felt perfect for fall. I used lilac, orange, and red polish and black nail pens to do all the intricate outlining.\\\"\\n\\n\u2014Sophy Robson, nail artist"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
