Bramlet created Linney’s nail look using Dolce & Gabbana Anise 715. “The blue-grey polish paired well with Linney’s dress,” says Bramlet. “Its classic, rich color cast a beautiful sheen on the red carpet.”

Anna Chlumsky strutted the red carpet in CND’s Bellini courtesy of Bramlet. “The beautiful jewel and ocean tones of the dress inspired me to opt for a color reminiscent of the beach,” says Bramlet. “CND Bellini brought out the metallic color in her dress, pairing perfectly.”

Abhiram opted for Essie in Jamaica Me Crazy when tending to Regina King’s hands. “We wanted to compliment her beautiful gown, gorgeous skin and flawless makeup with a jewel-toned shade that would pop without taking away from the rest of her ensemble,” says Abhiram.

Bramlet chose CND in Grapefruit Sparkle when creating the nail look for Game of Thrones actress Carice van Houten. “Carice’s colorful hand-painted dress called for a bit more neutral nail look,” says Bramlet. “CND Grapefruit Sparkle accented the dress, rather than competed with it.”

Essie in Wicked did the trick for Emily Hampshire. Abhiram worked with Hampshire’s stylist, who envisioned a strong look for her red-carpet look. “We found the perfect shade of deep purple to match her vision and finish her look,” says Abhiram.
