If you are ready to experiment with French manicure, check out the new nail designs for the summer - French manicure.

Bright summer jacket
The summer season is a great reason to make a bright jacket. For example, a trendy design is a neon jacket on a milky base combined with rainbow flakes. But this is not the only option. Fashionistas choose bright art jackets, with patterns, with decor, using the gradient technique, and combine acidic shades with neutral colors. At the same time, the tips of the nails are always decorated in bright shades to attract attention, lift the mood and add an accent to the image.
Delicate summer jacket
The trend for delicate pastel shades will remain with us in the summer season. They were popular in the spring, but give them preference in the summer too. For example, with pastel you can draw curved lines on a white jacket, highlighting the tips of your nails and the cuticle area in a corner. Alternatively, imitate brush strokes on the free edge of the nail. The combination of French + plain manicure is no less popular. The variations are endless.
Shiny free edge in French manicure
A luxurious festive jacket for summer 2022 will not be complete without rich colors of gel polish and shiny decor. Alternatively, it could be a stylish combination of a velvet base jacket and a transparent smile with pieces of gold leaf as decoration for the free edge. It looks unsurpassed, we definitely recommend trying this cool version of a summer jacket in the coming season.
French summer foil gold leaf
Don't limit your French design to just the choice of color. Decoration is also relevant and on trend. In addition to gold leaf foil, French manicures are decorated with sparkles, shiny flakes, rubbing or rhinestones. Thanks to shimmering decorative particles, nail design is improved. And also modern materials are very wear-resistant and will not lose their appearance in two weeks. For example, a French jacket with glitter would be appropriate for a prom, wedding or vacation.
Black French 2022
For such a dark jacket, traditional techniques and decorations are chosen. Some of the most trending designs for 2022 include a marbled black and white design on one or two nails, followed by a standard base polish in natural shades with a contrasting black smile on the rest. No less attractive is a black jacket with original and unusual shapes of a smile: in the shape of a bow, from two stripes of black and silver, in the form of numerous interrupted lines. Black French, according to many of its fans, is even more versatile and beautiful compared to white.

Do not exclude a French design in the style of wavy lines and the sea, a corner and double thin stripes. Also in trend are milky, transparent and colored translucent foundations. With a French manicure, it is fashionable to highlight not all nails, but one or several fingers.

Summer French for long nails
Don't look at the length of your nails, highlight the tips of your nails with fashionable shades. For long nails, bright green, pastel, “candy” shades will be a popular choice for the summer season. And also floristry, milky gradient, double, matte or French in the form of a rainbow and fire. We stick to the theme of brightness or elegance.
Summer jacket ideas with drawings
This season, along with the trend for French design, patterns that complement it are becoming popular. The most fashionable include: emoticons, inscriptions, simple daisies, twigs, fruits/berries, rainbows, butterfly designs, textures, original abstractions. And almost no manicure is complete without them. Nails in a nautical style and a quail print, which can be decorated with a French jacket, are also trendy.
New 2022 - summer French design with colored stripes
Especially this season, the French design with stripes and wavy lines stands out. Having such a manicure is definitely fashionable. In this case, stripes or “waves” can be designed obliquely, not connected to each other, be in the same color palette or two or three colors. Easily combine neutral and pastel palettes with each other, and complement the French jacket with a matching pattern.
Velvet design summer 2022
Matte coating has firmly established itself in the nail industry and is constantly expanding its army of fans. The velvet structure softly mutes any shades, which allows you to use the brightest and richest tones when decorating, which are most relevant for complementing summer looks. A matte French manicure goes well with glitter, rhinestones or metallic stripes and can be combined with glossy details. For example, on one of the nails only the smile line is highlighted with a matte top, while on the other there is a lunula.
Multi-colored summer jacket
Different colored nails are a very attractive manicure trend. For example, in this warm season, a multi-colored jacket can reach the middle of the nail. Or vice versa, the stripes on the tips of the nails are very thin, but colored. At the same time, it is fashionable to highlight the cuticle area with color, usually in the color of the jacket. If you like the design of “smiles” with stripes, paint them in different bright colors.
Floral patterns
If you want to choose a delicate manicure, flowers will help with this. This design involves decorating the tips of the nail plate with floral motifs.

For the “soft square” shape, the ideal solution would be a combination of a milky background and white flowers with green leaves. Multi-colored petals made in delicate pastel colors will look no less romantic.
Matte summer French manicure
It can be made in a classic style, in a bright or delicate shade. In addition, a matte bright gradient jacket in combination with a quail print is in fashion. And also all the attention of fashionistas is focused on shades of green in the summer season. Since this palette has become the most popular, it is refreshing, looks bright and summery.
Rainbow design
French manicure design in rainbow shades offers original combinations of bright and rich colors at the tip of the nail in the form of a smooth stretch or a combination of classic and lunar designs in different colors. This idea will appeal to self-confident fashionistas who are not embarrassed by increased attention. A sunny rainbow on the tips of the nails will look appropriate at a beach party, a walk with friends and more. Designers recommend using no more than three shades of varnish on the nail at the same time, which will allow you not to overload the design and fully convey the spectacular gradient transitions.
Alternative to a summer jacket
French manicure is always fashionable and feminine. However, instead of the classics, you can choose an alternative design, for example, a gradient jacket, where the tips of the nails are highlighted in a different color. And also don’t be afraid to choose other bright French options that look great on nails of different shapes and lengths.
- For example, art-french, where the tips of the nails are decorated with a pattern,
- French obliquely,
- with geometric elements,
- dots,
- multi-colored wavy lines.
Fashion trends and new items for 2022 in French design
If we talk about 2022 fashion trends in manicure, then we should take into account not only current techniques and decor, but also the shape of the nails. The nail industry is developing so quickly that after each season, nail artists have to master new materials and innovations in nail design. Last year, a new material became widespread - acrylic gel, which made it possible to strengthen and increase the shape of nails in just a few manipulations. In this regard, owners of short nails were able to afford new forms of manicure.
Fashionable nail shapes for French 2020
French manicure has become more elegant due to the length of the nails. Strengthening and extending nails is now not difficult, even at home. If you wish, you can make a long, beautiful jacket for yourself. In this regard, more feminine nail shapes have become popular: elongated oval, almond-shaped nails and pointed tips. The classic rectangle is rare these days. On almond-shaped nails, the classic oval version of the “smile” line looks good, and on longer and sharper nails you can experiment with geometric shapes. Below are the three most popular nail shapes for 2022.
Almond
Oval
Sharp long nails
Fashionable techniques and materials
To get a quick and beautiful manicure, you must not forget about the latest nail design, which can make the master’s life much easier. First of all, French-style nail design can be done in fewer manipulations using a camouflage base. Previously, nails had to have a base layer and 1-2 layers of colored gel polish in a pale pink shade. Now everything is much simpler. Apply a translucent color base, highlight the ends and cover with top. This option is ideal for durable nails. But if your nail plate is too thin and flexible, then you can use scheme No. 2.
Camouflage bases
The fashionable French manicure 2022 is not just a manicure, but also an ideal coating for smoothing and strengthening nails with acrylic. Now the design of a French manicure begins with the design of the nail plate. We set the length, shape, level the surface and create the perfect highlight. All this is done with a material called acrylic. A mixture of gel and acrylic, which allows you to strengthen the nail well and slightly increase its length. Also, using this wonderful material, you can restore a broken nail tip or solve the problem of pecking and curling nails. The new French manicure with acrylic gel is an opportunity for girls with frankly “bad” nails to realize their dream of a beautiful manicure.
Building and strengthening with acrylic
To make a fashionable design for short nails, you need to purchase a flat brush, extension forms and the acrylic gel itself. Next, watch a couple of training videos and move on. We put the mold, lay out acrylic, level it with a brush and degreaser, polymerize it and make sawdust.
It is better to apply acrylic in 2 layers (base and leveling) and before that apply a base coat to the nails.
French - every finger is different
Do you like trash manicure? When each nail is decorated differently, with the most fashionable painted designs and French designs. Such summer new manicures are chosen by extravagant, bright girls and representatives of creative professions. Examples of design in the photo.

Classic design

A beige, peach, pink or clear base with a white tip will complement any summer look and will always make you look flawless. In addition, the classic design can always be complemented, if desired, with a cute design, a pattern of rhinestones, pearls or sparkles.
