The garden party — where cocktails and passions are stirred
in equal measure – is the inspiration for Nailtini’s summer polish
collection designed by Janie Bryant, the Emmy winning fashion designer, author
of The Fashion File (Grand
Central, 2010) and creator of her own “MOD” line of women’s
wear for QVC as well as the fashions seen on AMC’s “Mad Men.”
Her
second collaboration with Nailtini, which comes on the heels of her highly
acclaimed fall holiday limited edition for the brand. The limited edition Garden Party collection has everything
from petit-four pastels to a punchy high-shine patent to a sheer shimmery veil
that can be worn alone or as an overlay.
Blushing Lady: This candy
shell pink with a sophisticated touch of lavender is likely just the color
Edith Piaf had in mind when she sang “La Vie En Rose.” A
graceful accompaniment to a floral sheath or flouncy skirt, “Blushing
Lady” is ultra-feminine but never shy, and just right for the modern
garden party.
Blue Carnation: A soft,
creamy blue with a jade-like milkiness, this porcelain polish is a new school
tribute to an old school cocktail and its namesake flower. Skip the
corsage, and instead, accessorize your fingers or toes with Blue Carnation.
Admiral Perry: It
wouldn’t be a proper garden party without an intriguing and dapper suitor
among the guests. You’ll take a shine to his dress blues, and to
the patent-leather gleam of this royal blue lacquer.
Garden Jubilee: Botany
keeps re-inventing the rose with endless new hybrids. Beauty
follows suit with Garden Jubilee, a shimmery “floridescent” veil that
captures the prettiest greens and pinks of the rose bed in one bottle.
Wear it on bare nails or as a top coat to create a nail cocktail with true
flower power.
In addition to her multiple
Emmy® nominations as “Outstanding Costume Designer for a Series”
and a 2005 win for “Deadwood,” Janie Bryant is the recipient of the
2009 and 2010 Costume Designers Guild Award for “Outstanding
Period/Fantasy TV Series” for her work on “Mad Men.”
She was named to Vanity Fair’s 2010
list of “Top 100 Influencers,” as well as to the LA MOCA Costume
Council.
