Designer: ICB by Prabal Gurung
Lead Manicurist: Katie Hughes, butter LONDON Global Colour Ambassador
The Scoop: Inspired by art deco design elements and deco painters – the ICB girl is multi-dimensional and always unpredictable
The Look: Katie used butter LONDON Nail Lacquer in Chimney Sweep on the hands and finished the look with the Matte Finish Top Coat. She then used Kitten Heels Powder Finish Foot Crème on the feet and Chimney Sweep on the toes.
“For this show, we selected a colour that was gritty yet chic. There was a lot of texture in the collection so we wanted a matte nail on the hands to compliment the designs.”

Rachel Roy
butter LONDON’s Global Colour Ambassador, Katie Hughes, created the nail look for the Rachel Roy F/W 2013 Collection – which aired on the designers Facebook page.
Designer: Rachel Roy
Lead Manicurist: Katie Hughes, butter LONDON Global Colour Ambassador
The Scoop: Inspired by 18th century art and refined opulence, the collection is a combination of colorful jewel tones, a range of textures and the balance between darkness and light
The Look: Katie created a half moon manicure using butter LONDON’s Nail Lacquer in Tea with the Queen and La Moss
“I love the half-moon manicure we created for Rachel as it not only embodies the elements that inspired her Fall ’13 Collection, but also those that define it. We chose to use nail enhancements to ensure the nails were elegantly shaped and made a statement, and opted for a combination of a rich oxblood jewel tone (butter LONDON’s La Moss Nail Lacquer) with a lighter shade (butter LONDON’s Tea with the Queen Nail Lacquer) to create dimension between light and dark just as Rachel has done in the collection. The nail look is opulent, exotic and modern, but still quite classic.”
