Dakota Johnson Paired Her Sheer Gown With a Sheer Manicure

Some things never get old: picking up a morning coffee, seeing the sunrise on vacation, wearing a milky manicure—the list could go on. The “boring” manicure may look simple, but it packs a sartorial punch. Case in point: Dakota Johnson tried on the look at the Kering for Women dinner last night, proving how it always elevates any look.

On September 9, Johnson was among attendees like Kim Kardashian and Julia Garner at the third annual Kering gala in New York. For the occasion, Johnson stuck to her go-to event uniform, a chic low-key slip, which she styled with an easygoing sheer manicure.

Painted on her natural nails, Johnson’s no-fuss manicure featured a sheer coat of milky nude polish. Thats it! There were no chrome top coats, gemstones, or fancy accents. The light wash of polish doesn’t detract or demand the spotlight, it simply looks put-together and enhances the natural nail color. The subtle milky glow added the perfect amount of refined shine to the actor’s ensemble.

The theme for Johnson’s look of the night? Sophisticated shimmer. From the sparkly ring on her finger to her gemstone-encrusted Gucci gown, Johnson was glowing—literally. For glam the actor kept it pared-back and simple, donning her iconic fringe bangs that framed her face and throwing the rest of her hair back into a low ponytail. Her glam was glowy and radiant, with lots of pink blush flushing her cheeks as the centerpiece. She finished the look with big fluttery lashes and a rosy lipstick.

The milky manicure is always a winner—perhaps it’ll be Johnsons new go-to for matching with her favorite slip dress silhouette. For now, we’ll be copying her no-fuss manicure throughout fall.
