History of appearance
This manner of painting nails appeared in the seventies of the last century in Hollywood, despite its name, and not in one of the French cities. His appearance was spontaneous: the fact is that actresses often simply did not have time to change their manicure for each of the new looks and clothes, which they needed to quickly get into and change into. In order to look organic while filming in any outfit, a special series of neutral polishes was released.
To create such a universal manicure, the nails were shaped into a rounded square, painted pink or light beige, and the tip of the nail was covered with white. And this nail design got its name from fashion models, who loved it dearly for its versatility, because it goes perfectly with any clothes. And now for more than forty years, French manicure, or in other words, French, has been decorating the fingers of women all over the world.
Fashion trends 2021
Nail design 2021 suggests combining various techniques in one manicure, that is, the French manicure is used as a base, and various graphic images, sliders, stamps, rhinestones, sparkles, shimmers, etc. are added to it. The most important fashion trends are naturalness and naturalness.
They are the ones who determine what shape and length the nails should be in a fashionable manicure. After all, no matter how stylish and trendy nail art is, without properly designed, neat nails there will be no desired effect.
As for the length of nails, this season the trend is short nails, as well as ultra-short ones: the tip of the nail plate should extend beyond the edge of the fingertip by no more than 4 millimeters. This is enough to ensure that the nail does not look too short, but still looks quite long. The shape of the nails should be oval, almond-shaped or rounded square.
Pointed, cat-like claws are a thing of the past. So those who were worried about the inability to comply with fashion trends due to their dislike for this shape of nails will certainly be happy.
Trendy nail design with French manicure for the spring/summer 2021 season has the following distinctive features:
- artistic painting;
- French jacket with a pattern;
- complex patterns;
- uneven lines, zigzags, geometric shapes;
- pastel palette;
- bright, natural, summer colors.
French manicure with moonlight 2021
Moon manicure is another “highlight”, which, in fact, appeared even earlier than the “French” manicure, at the very beginning of the last century. The main feature is to leave the hole of the nail near the cuticle transparent, and cover the rest of the nail plate with varnish of a contrasting color. In light of the innovations that both French and lunar manicure have undergone, we can say that it is very successful to mix them on one nail at the same time. The classic white color looks especially good in this design - both for the inner hole and for the outer “smile” - it is very refreshing for a 2017 manicure made in any shade.

Current classics
Based on the main trend of this spring-summer season, namely naturalness, the classic French jacket will continue to be on the wave of popularity. A manicure without a base coat at all, only with painted nail tips, will become relevant, in which it is necessary to pay special attention to high-quality cleaning: removing cuticles, hangnails, giving the same length and shape to all nail plates. Hands and nails should look as well-groomed as possible. This nail art looks natural and sophisticated.
Another version of the classic French jacket is a beige base and a white “smile” line. If this design seems a little boring, you can dilute it by combining it with a moon manicure. Moreover, do it either on all fingers, or only on a pair. In addition to beige, you can also use a soft pink shade for the base. When combining French with lunar, you can highlight the base line of the nail with a slightly darker tone of the same shade as the edge of the nail.
Tips on how to make a beautiful white French jacket yourself
- Before painting your nails, straighten the length of the plates, move the cuticles, remove burrs to make your hands look neat.
- In the store you can find special stencils that will help you make your “smile” even and uniform on all fingers.
- On short nails, you can draw an elegant French line using a special thin brush.
- To hide imperfections in the nail plate and add shine to your manicure, it is recommended to use a base tinting coat.
- If you want to add decor to your manicure, but don’t know how to draw, use ready-made stickers, the choice of which is huge.
- To avoid ruining the design, always use drying agent (in the form of varnish or aerosol). It not only dries the polish instantly, but also prolongs the durability of the manicure.
These were the new white French nail designs for 2021 with photos so that you could choose the options you like and implement them on your hands. But remember that fashion only sets the direction and does not limit your fantasies and ideas in any way. Experiment, implement, create, and perhaps your idea will become a fashion trend next year.

Fashionable colors
The shape and length of the nails are the basis, but the materials used and, of course, the color scheme make the manicure bright and unusual. The trend for summer 2021 will be pastel colors, namely: cream, beige, fawn, creamy, powdery, salmon, milky shades. All of them are good not only as a basis for a Hollywood-style manicure, but also as an independent coating.
But in addition to the classics, the spring/summer 2021 season also suggests paying attention to another trend : colored jackets. Firstly, it is difficult to imagine a fashionable image of decorative manicure for such a hot season without bright summer colors. And secondly, the year of the fiery rooster dictates its own rules, in particular regarding color preferences. So for a French manicure in bright colors you can freely choose:
- red;
- green;
- yellow;
- orange;
- blue.
And, of course, all sorts of shades of these colors. But you shouldn’t do a manicure that is too flashy, because it will contradict the basic rule: naturalness. Remember the combination of feathers of the owner of the year according to the Chinese calendar; these are exactly the color combinations that nature dictates. Also, both matte and glossy coatings can be used simultaneously in one design.
Short nails and French manicure
Another big trend in 2021 is short nails, and all designs are created keeping this length in mind. This is due to the fact that for a classic French manicure, a nail with a protruding edge of about 2 millimeters will not be enough; a smile on such a nail plate will only make it visually shorter and wider, as a result of which the fingers will appear thicker. But this is not at all the effect that every girl wants to achieve: she wants a manicure to make her hands more graceful.
But there is a solution to this problem: a fashionable colored and non-standard French manicure. Owners of especially short nails should avoid overly contrasting color combinations, choosing to create such a jacket colors from one or a similar palette of shades that gently resonate with each other and do not create sharp transitions. For example, you can combine purple with lilac, blue with blue, and so on.

You can use its classic version with clear and white polish or apply other pastel shades to the tip of the nail that match the color of the dress (peach, beige) and highlight your skin type (pale, dark). Decorate the jacket with a fabulous floral painting: let the plants match those in the groom’s boutonniere and the bride’s bouquet. Look at the photo below - French manicure.
It should be noted that a wedding manicure will look best on long nails. If you have them short, you can build them up. This way, the manicurist will have more space for creativity, and you will sparkle with elegant hands in wedding photographs during the special moment - the exchange of rings.

Striped French manicure
Stripes are relevant in all nail designs of 2021, and French is no exception. The edge of the nail can be painted in a standard curved way, that is, with a smile line, or with a clear, even stripe. In addition, it is encouraged to draw a vertical stripe on the nail plate, which will divide the nail into two different or identical parts.
This can be done in the same color as the edge of the nail or in a different color, but not too contrasting to it and the base. Or, for example, make a stripe with golden varnish, rhinestones, sparkles for special, festive occasions. In this case, you get a French style in the Hollywood style. If you are doing a French manicure with a stripe yourself, use a special adhesive tape that will allow the stripe to be perfectly even.

Summer 2021 is the time to experiment. One of the latest trends in nail art is the French manicure made using the Ombre technique.

French with slider
Sliders are a real salvation for those who do their own manicure, but at the same time like to follow fashion trends. You don’t have to know how to use dots or paint with a manicure brush to get beautiful designs on your nails. It is enough to make a classic French manicure and diversify it with a slider design.
If you are planning a party and creating a design appropriate for the occasion, then the stickers can be applied to all nails without exception. For everyday life, it is best to use sliders only on some, for example, on the ring fingers.
French manicure with gel polish
French gel polish is a salvation for those who have little time to regularly renew their manicure. After all, it’s no secret that ordinary varnish fades quite quickly, especially from contact with water or from mechanical damage, the coating is damaged and peels off. With gel polishes this problem is solved, because they maintain shine, smoothness and durability for at least two weeks.
In addition, a manicure with gel polish helps hide defects in the nail plate, such as unevenness and cracks. It also protects nails from harmful influences, for example, dishwashing detergents, strengthens nails, due to which the manicure lasts longer.
