Whether you're all about easy nail art, classic French manicures, and negative space manicures or adore intricate abstract designs and every single one of New York Fashion Week's hottest nail trends, there’s a rose gold set that will suit your nail shape and style.

Ahead, find 24 rose gold nail art ideas perfect for those who prefer minimalist manis as well as those who like to go all out.

05 Rosy Base
