The French manicure is officially back. But don't worry, they're nothing like the basic white tips and nude-polish topcoats you wore to your quinceañera. The throwback '90s nail trend has been given a chic and edgy makeover. Think contrast tips, metallics, graphic shapes, and cool designs. Here's a look at some of the coolest French manis to sport this fall.

No white tip
Rose gold lines feel a lot more cool and elegant than thick, white tips.
Thinner line
The thinner the white tip, the better.
Gold tips
Replace those white tips for gold ones, for a look that’s fresh and fall-ready.
Black tips
An oval-shaped French mani with black tips should never go out of style. We’re just saying.
Bold colors
Because a French manicure can be as bright and bold as you want it to be.
Soft and sheer
I love the softer, less-obvious appearance on this one.
Contrast
The neutral shades combined with geometric shapes adds a subtle but fun twist.
Floral design
A floral design on round or oval nails looks so modern and chic.
Nail art
This colorful nail art design was clearly inspired by a French manicure. It just looks WAY cooler.
