For the LUAR FW2024 Show, nail artist Naomi Yasuda used iconic OPI shades in addition to Basic Baddie, a shade from the new OPI Your Way Collection. Naomi pulled inspiration from the aesthetic of the vintage picture frame, which holds a grandeur appeal.
“LUAR is a brand that marries high fashion with urban culture, so I decided to make nails that were both striking and lavish, leading me to create a baroque-inspired design for the statement nail. And for a more classic, subtle look, I incorporated LUAR’s signature colors of nude, brown, navy, and black to create a classic French tip.”
— Naomi Yasuda, Nail Artist
