The nail art industry is rapidly moving forward, presenting fashionistas with new and unusual ideas for performing manicures. But, no matter what new techniques are offered, many girls prefer to perform a classic French manicure. This is not at all surprising, because such a manicure is considered a universal option for both holidays and everyday occasions. Despite the attractiveness and relevance of the design, some girls find it a little simple and boring. Therefore, masters suggest diversifying your nail art and creating a French look in a rich burgundy color. This design will certainly not go unnoticed.
Features of the design of a burgundy jacket
Some may say that burgundy is too flashy and edgy for a classic French design. And this is partly true, but this is not a reason to abandon this design. The burgundy color palette is incredibly rich in various darker and lighter tones. Therefore, finding a shade according to your taste will not be difficult. A significant part of the manicure depends on the shape of the nails and their length. Recently, soft and natural lines have become more popular. Thus, oval or almond-shaped nails of medium length are considered an excellent option. Long, sharp nails with a burgundy jacket look too vulgar for everyday outings. Particular attention must be paid to the shape of the smile itself. It can be varied. Some people prefer the classic version, others like a double, beveled or inverted line. Any of the options looks beautiful and elegant.
Cat's eye: burgundy as the art of seduction
The coloring, called cat's eye, in the traditional technique is performed as a diagonal stripe in the middle part of the nail plate. It will be most suitable for an evening out, a romantic date.

If we consider in more detail, the strip can be supplemented with secondary patterns of both geometric and floral types. If the pattern is large, then it should be placed on only one finger. Rhinestones would be an appropriate addition, but there are some subtleties here:
- Pros: they will emphasize the solemnity of the event, attract attention with their brilliance, and give a complete luxurious look.
- Cons: if the stones are placed incorrectly, the size is too large, or the shape is inappropriate, it may look cheap and lose all its magical properties.
Solemn and stylish
Tip: Small pebbles will make your manicure suitable for weekdays.
Fashionable burgundy and white jacket
Very often, a burgundy jacket is made in combination with other colors. The most fashionable and common combination option is white. This tone looks great not only as a basis for drawings, but also for performing double designs. With this combination, the design acquires notes of softness and tenderness, and the manicure is considered universal for everyday life. Although, with proper decoration, this design is also suitable for evening events.
Cherry and black: contrast and harmony
The presence of rich and bright nuances cannot but arouse interest, so one of the most important rules is to have perfectly well-groomed hands and fingers.
Alternating wine and black allows you to achieve maximum effect. To clarify and offer an option, the index and thumb, painted black, can be decorated with dark red rhinestones.

Bright combination
Stylists suggest combining colors when using water or marble manicure. In addition, it would not be superfluous to use gold or silver, but in minimal quantities.
Important: in addition to the indicated colors, you can try pale pink ones, which will dilute the dark range.
Elegant burgundy jacket with lace patterns
A French manicure in burgundy color looks very self-sufficient, but increasingly, fashionistas want to complement and diversify the design with unusual designs. The most sophisticated and delightful pattern for this tone is considered to be lace. After all, such a manicure always looks graceful, gentle and elegant. You can decorate several nails with delicate lace or make a neat little hole using this pattern. The most suitable color for the design is white. The ring nail with lace motifs on a burgundy background and small elements on the middle nail with a French jacket in the corresponding color look very beautiful.
Matte
The matte version of the manicure can be repeated without outside help. There are many ways to make such a design from regular gel polish. However, most of them are either dangerous, like the steam method, or the results on the nails do not last long. Therefore, it is better to purchase a special ready-made product.
To perform a matte manicure, you should follow the instructions:
- carefully prepare the nail plate and apply the base;
- secure the stencils for the jacket at the base;
- carefully cover the rest of the nail with a matte burgundy shade;
- Avoid applying finishing agent.
It is best to choose a burgundy gel polish with a “bitter chocolate” shade.
Strict geometry on a burgundy jacket
One of the leading positions in the ranking of current drawings is occupied by geometry: various figures, lines or arcs. This makes it possible to experiment and create new and unique varieties of stylish design. For girls who prefer discreet nail art, masters offer regular horizontal stripes. Those who like complex images will definitely pay attention to the interweaving of lines with a decorative accent.
Burgundy jacket with thematic patterns
We must not forget that a burgundy-toned jacket is an excellent basis for thematic images. In autumn, yellowed leaves will be luxuriously placed on it. In winter, apply a scattering of cute snowflakes and matching designs on your nails. This option will remind you that the holidays are approaching. In the summer, burgundy-colored fruits will lift your spirits. Well, in spring you can place cute flowers in light colors. Therefore, feel free to experiment with thematic drawings, because they are all appropriate.
Ultra-fashionable burgundy jacket with flowers
By complementing the French manicure with cute floral motifs, the design will give a romantic and gentle mood. But do not forget that much depends on the style of execution of the image. For example, large roses on a burgundy base will add femininity and elegance to the image. This solution will be an excellent option for an evening look. Modest buds and laconic flowers will make the nail art less bright and catchy. This solution will be universal for ordinary everyday looks. If desired, these designs can be supplemented with rhinestones, beads and sparkles.
Color: useful comments on choice
The color variety of wines has virtually no boundaries. However, the same effect will look completely different on long or short nail plates, and will also be combined with skin type.
- When creating a set that combines scarlet and burgundy, they must perfectly match the colors of the outfit. The best combination is considered to be combination with white, black, gray.
- Speaking about the color type, it should be taken into account that “cold” ladies need cold colors, and “warm” ones, respectively, need warm ones. This is easy to determine: if there is a violet or bluish tint (not pearlescent), it belongs to the cold type, and notes of brown, orange, and brown notes indicate warmth.
Sophisticated Design
- Untanned hands are more suited to varieties that are close to red, and to tanned skin - deep ones.
- The brightest, most saturated, dark ones are suitable for young ladies with an ideal nail shape: thin fingers, elongated nail plates. If there are other forms, you should resort to applying decorative elements that hide defects. To expand, a thin horizontal strip is drawn at the ends, to expand the base, a highlighted hole is drawn, and they can be lengthened using a wide vertical strip.

Advice: if nature has not endowed you with beautiful nails, then you can always correct them with the help of extended plates.
Decor options for a burgundy jacket
For those who don’t like designs on their nails, manicurists offer to decorate nail art using decor. Rhinestones are considered the most popular option for decorating nails; they can be of different colors, shapes and sizes. But the classic option is transparent round rhinestones. You should not use too much decor in one manicure. Because the design itself is self-sufficient. A few rhinestones on one of the nails will significantly transform the design, making it brighter and more attractive.
You should pay attention to the decor in the form of sparkles. Thus, you can make holes or decorate half of the nail, which looks original and unusual. You can also completely dig up one or more nails using glitter.
Another stylish type of decor is foil. And even though it has been used less often lately, this manicure looks no less attractive. And a real hit for several seasons is broken glass, which goes chic with a burgundy jacket. This design is perfect for evening events and important events.
Burgundy French manicure is a universal solution for both stylish fashionistas and discreet modest women. So we can safely say that this manicure is very popular. But special importance should be given to the design of the manicure itself. Therefore, you should not neglect fashionable decor and designs.
Mirror
This design can be made using additional materials. The most popular among them are foil, rubbing and stickers. The last option is suitable for creating a burgundy mirror jacket.
Even a beginner can cope with this manicure. At the same time, the design will turn out to be unusual and visually complex. It is important to note that the length of the nail plate should not be too long.
To perform a manicure, you should follow the following instructions:
- coat the prepared plate with a special base agent;
- apply any burgundy shade of gel polish to the entire surface;
- Carefully place the sticker on the top of the nail, carefully straighten it and cut off the excess;
- coat your nails with finishing agent.
When removing excess parts of the sticker, you need to be as careful as possible. It is better to trim a little at a time and slowly. Over time, the process will go better and faster.
