In the Lara Stone for Vogue U.K. feature, mani and pedi duties were handled by nail artist Sophy Robson, who on her blog writes about what she used during the shoot:
I had to sculpt some short length overlays on to poor Lara’s damaged nails to make them look nice for this story. (The result of another “session nail tech” but let’s not go there.) On the cover I used Bronze Libertine by Dior and inside it’s gorgeous peachy Tart Deco by Essie.
She also emphatically points out that she doesn’t use gels on fashion shoots. Which makes total sense, gel is great for longevity but would be hell to have to remove day to day. Meanwhile, check out Lara’s rock–not crazy, rather understated and vintage in feel…a family heirloom perhaps?
