What do you get if you cross CND with The Blonds, add in 500+ hours in the CND Design Lab, a touch of Jan Arnold fabulousness, and mix it all up in MILK Studios in New York City? An out-of-this-world show where the nails, hair and make up all pick up the slack to make sure that the designs look their very, very best.
I've said it before, I'll say it again...there is no other nail brand doing what CND are doing with nails in fashion. The relationship between CND and The Blonds is one that has been developed over a number of seasons now and the symbiosis between the two brands is inspiring. The images from this season's show have blown me away and, if they don't make your nail-loving eyes pop out of your head on stalks, then go and get your eyes checked because there is something wrong.
The brief from The Blonds: The Blond girl is Gangsta Genie who always gets what she wishes for. With a modern twist on a variety of cultural references, the clothing and nails pushed the boundaries of artistry and resulted in a theatrical experience of exaggerated glamour. Take a look at the images - CND have come in right on the money.
We are so excited to continue this long-standing fashion partnership with yet another spectacular show this season, said CND Co-founder and Style Director Jan Arnold. The Blonds aesthetic for this collection correlated perfectly with CNDs Summer 2015 trend story, which is all about sculpted and dramatic silhouettes and intense seductive hues for a mysterious contrast of colour and texture. CND and The Blonds just get each other were like family at this point!
CND took nail design to a whole new level for The Blonds, fully accessorizing each look that walked down the runway with a distinct over-the-top nail style on every model.
CND blinged out the innovative 3D looks with unconventional materials, including filigrees, oversized gold chains, medallions, tassels, lace, porcelain and over ten thousand stones, gems and jewels. The lavish designs, which took over 500 hours to create in the CND Design Lab, truly represented CNDs unique partnership with The Blonds and showcased their unrivaled artistry at New York Fashion Week.
CNDs nail designs blow our minds more and more every season, said The Blonds designer David Blond. Jan and team continue to look well beyond the nails themselves and find ways to accessorize our designs to complete the full story on the runway. They continue to amaze us with their creativity and ability to tap into our overall vision!
We have worked with The Blonds since 2008 because we love their fun, high energy vibe and their willingness to let us into their magical world as true artistic partners, said Arnold. Working with them is such an inspiring process, and this gang of genies really personified the essence of our collaboration!
Until then...geek on!
