Prabal Gurung’s Pre-Fall/Fall 2021 collection is the designer’s continued love letter to New York. The collection conveys the resilience, grit, passion, and complicated devotion of New Yorkers. It is the story of Prabal’s rekindled love affair with New York, a sonnet to the city which found hope and humanity even in the most difficult times.
Pulling inspiration from Prabal Gurung’s Pre-Fall/Fall 2021 collection that showcases "a dark and unrelenting romance," celebrity nail artist and KISS Brand Ambassador Gina Edwards(@ginaedwards_) created long, couture nails in a deep Bordeaux.

HOW GINA GOT THE LOOK:
STEP 1: Start with KISS Gel Fantasy Nail No Pressure
STEP 2: Select the correct size nail for each finger and set aside in order
STEP 3: Size and shape into oval or any shape desired
STEP 4: Using a clear gloss top coat, add a half moon by the cuticle line of the nail while holding the tip. Allow to dry 5-10 minutes
STEP 5: At the tip of the nail, use the top coat to swipe an oval French tip
STEP 6: Apply nail with glue or adhesive nail tabs
