Some nail colors will always be synonymous with a season. Neon colors, such as this year’s Brat green, embody the sun-filled days of summer, while icy blues and grays feel most appropriate come winter. For fall, there are a handful of gorgeous colors that embody the season. While most of them are earthy tones, there’s no denying the seasonality of a rich burgundy manicure. Deep, dark and moody, it epitomizes the spookier elements of the season. But beyond its vampy appeal, burgundy also ties in with seasonal fashion and beauty trends. Celebrity manicurist Tom Bachik recently dubbed the color as a standout shade this season and perfect for fall. If you’re looking for some inspiration, you’re in luck. Below, we’ve gathered some of the best burgundy nails to wear right now.

Burgundy Nail Looks We Love

1 / 9

Burgundy Bows

If you’ve been following nail trends lately, you’ve probably noticed the sea of bow nail art on Instagram. Most of the looks embrace light polish colors like baby pink or cream. This look features a rich burgundy shade and gives the balletcore trend a completely new vibe.

Silver Outline Design

There are a few contrasting designs on this list. This one takes a minimalist approach and features a simple strip of silver along the outer rim of the nails. For an even more dynamic look, try using a shimmery silver polish and two layers of topcoat for maximum shine.

Burgundy Chrome Nails

Chrome nails aren’t going away anytime soon. With blue and brown chrome looks trending, this burgundy manicure feels fresh. In this rich shade, the effect has a vampy feel that’s perfect for fall.

Dark Cherry Nails

A dark cherry polish and cherry nail art may be the combination you didn’t know you needed. Against a creamy burgundy base, the hand-painted design is artistic and charming. Just be sure to use an opaque white polish to create the contrasting effect.

Classy French Tips

French manicures are the epitome of classy. They’re sleek, elegant and ultra feminine. However, an extra sprinkle of sparkle never hurt anyone. Once you’ve painted your fingertips with a deep cranberry shade, add a touch of sheer glitter polish for a shimmery look.

Reverse French Manicure

We love a reverse French manicure. The upside-down twist on the classic is one of the most unique and interesting ways to wear the design. Choosing a bold nail color like burgundy, only intensifies the chic look.

Contrasting Colors

Contrary to what you may think, burgundy polishes play well with bright poppy shades. Take a cue from this manicure, which pairs a deep burgundy shade with a coral orange polish for a fun look.

Glossy Almonds

There’s beauty in glossy dark-colored manicures, especially when paired with almond-shaped nails. Together, they have a sleek look that oozes sophistication and elegance. For the full effect, be sure to use a creamy polish and high-shine topcoat.

Matte Almonds

If you prefer more of a moodier look, you can give your manicure the matte treatment. The completely shine-less look is edgy but still feels sophisticated thanks to the dark burgundy shade.
