Hieroglyphs

Not a proper post. Third year is actually a bit full on (/I am a bit lazy) but I just saw this and wanted to post it.


I saw it in a post from VogueUK on Facebook about how to recreate hieroglyphic nails which were designed by Sophy Robson for Topshop Unique's SS/12 catwalk business.


"This has to be my most ambitious fashion week design yet," said Sophy Robson of the Topshop Unique nails. "We hand-painted 450 fingernails with graphic symbols like the pyramid, tribal stripe and the 'all-seeing eye', which really captured the essence of the collection."

I have to say, after listening to BBC Radio4's piece about the Nailympics (listen here) it does not seem like the most complicated designs in the world, but then I have horrible nails.
