Subtle Nudes & Dark Designs Crushed The Red Carpet

Nude shades, deep, dark hues and simple geometric lines were all over the 2020 Golden Globes red carpet, proving that simplicity is always best! From Joey King’s subtle yet intricate nail art to Kerry Washington’s bold red nails to Busy Philipps’ berry-toned French manicure, scroll down to see what your favorite celebs were wearing on the red carpet.

 

1. Joey King

“Tonight, at the Golden Globes, Joey King is wearing a magical dress by Iris Van Herpen. To compliment the dress, we chose to do a geometric nail look that highlights the actress’ colorful personality. Each nail features a different configuration of thin, geometric lines,” says Thuy Nguyen (@thuybnguyen) using essie.
