For the 2019 Met Gala, Styles walked the carpet wearing the "paint chip" manicure trend — where each nail is adorned with a different shade from the same color family — and needless to say, people were into it. "I loved the Met Gala green and blue look, mainly because of how excited people got over it," said Longworth. "It's nice to see people get so into a red carpet nail look."
One of Harry Styles's Best Nail Moments

The Nail Polish Colors Harry Styles Wears With Suits
On event or red carpet days where Styles is suiting up, Longworth gravitates toward stronger polish colors like red and black — like a power suit for the nails. "Chanel polishes are a great core range of classics that never leave my kit," she added. Shown here is the Chanel Le Vernis Longwear Nail Color ($28). "Other than that, I tend to look for odd colors and love a bargain bucket of nail varnish in an obscure foreign pharmacy. I'll usually find some random colors in there that no one else would wear but I love!"
The Nail Art Harry Styles Attempted to DIY
Longworth and Styles collaborated closely ahead of an editorial shoot for Weekend magazine on what she says is his favorite look to date: smiley nail art. "We were all kind of obsessed with the idea for a while before we actually executed it properly," she said. "He even attempted his own version [of the look] on himself a while before."
Harry Styles' Go-To Nail Polish Shade
The nail polish color Styles and Longworth are "obsessed with" at the moment? Mint green, particularly the Essie Nail Polish in Mint Candy Apple ($9). "It's just the perfect [shade], but we heard it was being discontinued," she said. "It may have just been an urban myth, but I'm still stockpiling and buying every one I see in every CVS just in case."
The Nails Tools She Always Keeps in Her Kit
"My favorite tools are from Navy Pro Tools," said Longworth. You can buy them individually, or stock up on the set with this Navy Pro Tools Professional Nail Kit (£255, shipping available to the US). "They are all made in the UK and look superchic in my kit."
One Nail Trend You Can Expect in 2020
Longworth admits that she doesn't follow much of the "trends" out there, (and when you're jet-setting around with A-list celebrities that help set them, why would you?) but she does have one prediction in the space: "One thing we will see way more of in 2020 is men expressing themselves through nails."
We can only hope so — and it's about damn time.
