In a sea of no makeup-makeup looks, you can always count on The Blonds to make Fashion Week interesting. We’re not sure how they do it, but Phillipe and David Blond always manage to top previous seasons. The same goes for CND, the designers’ nail sponsors, who always go all out for the shows. This season, it was all about “Gangsta Genies,” and the team spent over 500 hours creating 20 different sets of tips for each model. CND took inspiration from Indian jewelry, religious symbols, patron saints and, of course, genies. Click through the slideshow to take a closer look at these little works of art.
