Editorial & Custom Celebrity Nail Art
High-fashion, editorial-grade nails brought from the studio to your fingertips. Whether you're prepping for a shoot or just want that main character energy, I create designs that make a statement.

About this collection
When I designed the shattered glass nails for The Raja Kumari, the challenge was ensuring the structure held up under stage lights while perfectly complementing the Manish Malhotra couture. I bring that same level of precision and structural integrity to every custom set I create, whether it is for a high-fashion editorial, a music video, or your own special event.
My work in editorials isn't just about looking good for the camera. It’s about building a design that tells a story. From the metallic chrome finishes used in the Dos Two 70s-inspired photoshoot to the intricate 3D elements in my celebrity collaborations, I treat every nail set as a piece of art.
If you have an idea, a mood board, or even a specific outfit you need to match, we can replicate that editorial quality for your own calendar. I specialize in custom-fit hand-painted sets that offer the longevity of professional salon extensions without the hassle of a multi-hour appointment. Whether you need something durable for a weekend music festival or elegant for a gala, my process combines professional-grade gel application with the creative freedom to try something bold. It’s not just about painting nails; it’s about making your fingertips the accessory that pulls your entire look together.
