Jewel-toned squares created a graphic, high-impact look at Cushnie Et Ochs. Squares were painted in Christian Louboutin Wherever and Ni Toi Ni Moi.

Go for the Gold
A simple stripe of glitter made the manicures shine at Delpozo. Essie's Matte About You, Good as Gold and Rock at the Top were used to create the look.

Faking Au Naturel
So you don't have pink, healthy-looking nails with whiter-than-white half-moon tips? Take a tip from the Houghton show, and use OPI You Callin' me a Lyre and My Vampire is Buff to fake perfect nails.

Join the Gypsies
Glamorous prints and textured fabrics inspired the gypsy-influenced nails at Sophie Theallet. Julie Kandalec used Essie Bahama Mama and Big Spender to create symbolic gypsy wheel nail art.

Put away your tweezers, magnifying glass, caviar beads and nail glue. The nail art at New York Fashion Week is simple, easy-to-achieve and elegant, while still making a statement. We stalked the runway to find the chicest, trendiest new looks at NYFW, and the verdict is in: elegant, understated nails are replacing over-the-top nail art of yore.

If you love nail art, fear not: It's not dead yet. Manicurists are still having fun with wacky colors and designs (see: the braces-inspired nails at Rachel Antonoff), it's just in a much subtler way. Good news for us, since these nails are way more wearable and require much less time to achieve.

Here, the best new nail art trends from New York Fashion Week.
