Invented by Jeff Pink more than 35 years ago, a French manicure or just a jacket, has undergone a huge number of changes, adjusting to the fashion trends that are relevant at one time or another. The popularity of this nail design does not diminish, and one of its varieties attracts special attention - the nails of a jacket with a pattern or a stylized (decorative) jacket.
Design feature
Decorative french - it's nails with a beautiful pattern, which is applied to the clarified edge of the nail plate or to its middle and is formed not only through painting, but also through lace, rhinestones and other decorative elements.
French with a pattern successfully complements almost all forms of nails - round, square and oval. For a more eccentric form - stylet - the most unexpected patterns are appropriate, however, this design is suitable only for a special case.
Patterns with curls
The French manicure is perfectly combined with the drawings executed in the style of painting. Flowers and curls of bright colors look good as if it were a natural nail. The technique of performing such a nail art involves first applying a matte tone to the free edge and the nail itself (classic French manicure). After drying, the bases begin to paint.
Stylishly looks a jacket with a painting with a diagonal drawing of the outer edge, when instead of the "smile line" a straight sloping line is created. In addition to acrylic paints for creating an interesting design, nail art masters also use brilliant varnishes and rhinestones - they make juicy accents on the elements of the painting. Nails in the style of a white French jacket with a pattern and rhinestones are appropriate for a wedding.
Noble black
Although originally the concept of the French manicure assumed the maximum naturalness and the use of light shades of lacquer, today a fashionable jacket with a black pattern - the contrast with the light base looks quite successful.
No less original is the idea of applying a black lacquer with a pattern to the free edge of the nail instead of a natural white tone. On the free edge, you can draw dots and flowers, or put them in contrast lacquer on the already applied black "smile line."
Another eccentric solution is a Hollywood jacket in a black scale, when the "smile line" takes on the shape of a zigzag or a "lacy" zigzag. Classical "leopard" painting on the outer edge of the nail looks no less stylish.
Special solutions
For lovers of a unique design, a French jacket with a pattern-lace is actual - on the nails in this case the real laces are stuck. To create an evening image, lace of black color is appropriate, and white will be right for the bride's manicure.
Popular and colored jacket, which allows the use of varnishes "unnatural colors." This design suits the owners of short marigolds and lovers of bright images. Incredibly exquisite due to the contrast of textures looks a combination of gray matte varnish with a silver metallic applied to the free edge.
Red nails french with a pattern - this is the solution for expressive ladies. Bloody color can paint the "line of a smile", applying to the rest of the nail only a clear varnish. An even more interesting solution is drawing a drawing on the main part of the nail, for example - black and white geometric ornaments. The smile line remains red.
A little advice. As you can see, the jacket does not provide any taboos - you can create any design, listening to your imagination. However, there is a golden rule of the French manicure, which is often broken by newcomers.
The "smile line" should always be drawn in the place where it is located on the living nail. If you decide to visually lengthen the short fingernail, having spent too wide a "line of a smile", the jacket will look monstrous.
