Summer may have only just begun, but we've already seen an abundance of incredible nail looks emerging for the season ahead. From pretty sorbet manicures and playfully embellished beach nails to polished princess nails and 'no-makeup makeup' manicures, there's no shortage of summer nail trends to take inspiration from in 2025. Yet among all of these summer-ready manicures, one look is an undeniable standout: Italian summer nails.

Capturing the very essence of a getaway on the Amalfi coast, these eclectic manicures take inspiration from lush lemon groves, intricately painted ceramic tiles, and sun-bleached linens — and replicate them one fingertip at a time. Combining an undeniably Mediterranean color palette of rich azure blues and zesty yellows with delicate hand-painted details and playful 3D citrus slices, the result is more than a manicure — it's a passport to la dolce vita.
