alice + olivia’s Spring/Summer 2020 presentation was a bright and bold world. Whether it was a field of lavender dreams or an orange dream of pop colors, we entered the fashion dreamscape of Stacey Bendet. The fashion designer stated, “When the colors are tight in a space, you exhale and tune into your own interior. I dream in color and these rooms are fashion dreams come to life.”
The Lead Manicurist for KISS Products, Inc. Gina Edwards created nail looks inspired by the collection. She shared, “I instantly felt transported to a dream land while creating looks for alice + olivia’s Spring 2020 Collection. I wanted to celebrate the fantasy feel of the collection with a fresh, whimsical take on classic nails.”
The nails were undoubtedly a French manicure in more of a modern day style. Edwards explained, “We really wanted to update the french because we know it’s trending once again ladies. We outlined the edges and we did a reverse french to make it feel fresh and updated.”

PEARL FANTASY

Step 1:
Select your correct size nail of KISS Salon Acrylic French Nude in Sensibility ($7.99, ulta.com) for each finger and set aside. Do not just start doing your nails. You want to plan this out so everything is sure to fit!
Step 2:
Use KISS Brush On Nail Glue ($2.99, KISSusa.com) to paint the tip of each nail. This will help the pearl embellishments stick.
