Megan Thee Stallion is turning the nail game upside down!
The Grammy winner, 29, has been all over Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week, including at the Gaurav Gupta Haute Couture Spring-Summer 2025 show on Wednesday, Jan. 29, in a strapless brown corset thong bodysuit paired with plenty of metal embellishments.
But there's one aspect to the daring look that even Meg herself didn't see the vision in — at least until she saw it in action.
While speaking with WWD ahead of the show, the "Wanna Be" rapper (born Megan Pete) revealed what her reaction was to finding out she'd be rocking inverted nails for the outing.
"I was scratching my head like, 'What do that mean? Put the nail on backwards?' And I didn't see the vision at first," Megan said. "But when I got the nails on my fingers, I said, 'Yes!'"

"It's giving 2025 but in 3035," Megan added. "That's what the girls are gonna be doing, so you're seeing it here first."
Elsewhere in her GRWM video, the musician joked about why her nails were reversed. "My nails are pointing at me because I love myself," she said.
After Megan stepped out in Paris, Tahvya Krok — the owner of Nailed by Tav — shared a closer look at the sleek brown nails to Instagram, captioning the look with the words "relic reversal. According to her Instagram, Krok has worked on Megan's nails on several occasions, including during a recent trip to South Korea with the music superstar, for a unique and colorful striped look and even on a special set for the rapper's August music video for "Mamushi."
The inverted nail trend may have just made it to Meg's nails, but it's been picking up steam on TikTok for the past few months. Content creators have been trying out different lengths to varying reactions on the social media platform, but it looks like the trend is gaining traction and going more mainstream. At least in the couture world.

Megan's latest Paris look was topped off with a reptilian-like headpiece adorned with face chains, as she showed off the get-up while sitting front row at Paris' Bridge Club. The outing followed her Jan. 27 attendance at the Giambattista Valli Haute Couture Spring-Summer 2025 show, when she rocked a hooded dress covered in red-orange ruffles.
She also sat front row at the Jean Paul Gaultier show, where she wore a voluminous black cape over a teeny-tiny pair of underwear — and not much else.

Beyond just nails, the musician hasn't been shy recently when it's come to accessorizing in recent months. In December, she stepped out at a Celtics-Bulls game in Chicago as she showed off a massive shearling bag. The large Saint Laurent by Anthony Vaccarello Niki Oversized in Shearling bag rested right in front of her as she was seated courtside.
Megan has also been getting creative with her own makeup, having revealed on Instagram last month that she served as her own makeup artist for the "Strategy" music video from K-pop band TWICE. "FUN FACT : I did my own makeup for the STRATEGY VIDEO 😜💋💄," she captioned a BTS video from the shoot that she posted on Instagram.
