Autumn nude manicure 2025: top 13 most fashionable and elegant ideas

September is officially here, which means it's time to get acquainted with the top autumn manicure trends. This season, nude shades are a favourite - versatile, elegant and suitable for any style. Unlike deep burgundy or aubergine, nude lacquers offer an endless variety of shades, allowing you to create both understated minimalist manicures and expressive neutral designs.
Whether you're a fan of classic French manicures, monochrome finishes or cool gradients, finding the perfect nude for autumn 2025 will be easy. See 13 trending ideas for this season below.

01 French in neutral colours

Neutral shades give the classic French manicure a warm autumnal vibe. You can settle on one colour, but creating a gradient of grey, mocha and beige gives the design a modern and sophisticated accent.

02 Cinnamon and Cocoa

Pumpkin spice season is with us again, but this cinnamon cocoa shade is already confidently competing with the classic autumn colour. The rich neutral polish looks both elegant, casual and incredibly chic, especially on almond-shaped nails with an expressive sculptural shape.

03 Martini style manicure

This manicure looks incredibly cute! It combines a glittery nude background, tiny gemstones and olives. Despite its minimalistic sophistication, it makes a bold style statement and gives your nails a new, fresh character.

04 Nude Gradient

Soft pink and beige shades are the perfect base for a gradient manicure. For the full effect, try blending colours smoothly to create a gentle transition on your nails.

05 Two-colour effect

On long nails with a glossy finish, the two-colour effect looks particularly striking, creating a stylish and modern manicure.

06 Mocha and Vanilla

Summer trends delighted with manicures in shades of ice cream with soft, swirling shimmers. With the onset of autumn, you should try a warmer and cosier combination - mocha with vanilla. This ice cream was the inspiration for French tips, adding a fun and unique accent to your manicure.

07 Gold Accents

Minimalism is deservedly popular. These looks look sophisticated yet are easy to replicate at home or in the salon. A great example is this manicure: one layer of delicate nude lacquer, complemented with stylish nail stickers instead of complicated hand painting. Simplicity and elegance in every detail.

08 Glossy Nails

The glossy top goes perfectly with any colour, but looks especially spectacular with nude shades. It instantly accentuates your nails' natural tone and sleek shape, giving your manicure a finished and well-groomed look.

09 Daisy Nail Art

Think daisies are just a spring motif? Not at all! This print is a fresh take on the floral trend that brings lightness and airiness to an autumn look.

10 French Latte Manicure

Latte season is here, so why not bring it to your nails? A play of shades of espresso, coffee, milk chocolate and cream on the tips of your nails is the perfect way to dip into the café-corner vibe this season.

11 Waves on nails

You don't have to be a professional to create spectacular nail art. Simple waves can look incredibly stylish - a fun and easy way to add originality to your manicure.

12 Very Long Nails

This manicure combines two iconic trends from past decades to create an ultra-chic look. Neutral 90s-inspired shades combined with long nails are the perfect choice for a stylish autumn look.

13 Dot Manicure

Manicure with dots is an eternal classic, relevant at any time of year. It looks especially stylish this autumn in a delicate nude shade with white dots, creating an elegant and sophisticated look.
