Gallery: Nails from the 2015 Academy Awards

Nails Pro Academy Awards

We all know the Oscars aren’t prime nail art time – stars are going for the more basic, “Old Hollywood” glam. Nevertheless, we’ve rounded up celebrity’s nails from the evening, and while there’s a touch of glitter and color here and there, we can’t lie – there are a LOT of nude nails on this list. Our solution? Just scroll through and imagine each celebrity’s colorless manicure instead be one of these way more fun designs.  

 

Without further ado…  

 

Oscar-winner Jamie Chung, the voice of GoGo in Big Hero 6, wore iridescent sparkle at her moons. Manicurist Melissa DeLaCruz used Caption Nail Polish in Rough, Tough & In The Buff and My Oh My.

  Kelly Osbourne showed off ornately patterned white talons.

  As if Lupita Nyong’o crazy 6,600-pearl gown wasn’t blingy enough, Deborah Lippmann added Swarovski crystals to the underside of her champagne-colored nails.

    Dakota Johnson may have starred in Fifty Shades of Grey, but her manicure was all-black.

  Four manicurists used Essie nail polish to give actress’ pinky-nude nails. First up was Margot Robbie

…Then Jessica Chastain with a soft pink.

  …And Faith Hill wearing clean, white gown.

  …Followed by the always-classy Gwyneth Paltrow.

  Nailing Hollywood’s Whitney Gibson spruced up Nicole Kidman‘s mani with a fresh nude shade.

  Gotta have the ulta-luxurious Azature at the Oscars! Gloria Williams (aka The Foot Nanny) prepped the Oprah with Azature polish before the big event.

  And of course, Red Carpet Manicure made an appearance on the red carpet!
