Demi Moore Swaps the ‘Stiletto’ Manicure for This Trendy Nail Shape

This fall, it seems like short nails are everywhere—back in the limelight after years of long-nail supremacy. Unless you’re Demi Moore. For Demi Moore, long nails are never over.

While in New York on October 25, Moore stepped out with her signature long nails. However, she skipped over stiletto nails—the prevailing long nail trend—and instead opted for a squoval shape. Her nude mani rounded but with a square tip that is the perfect mix between elegant and daring.

In the season in which short nails coexist with extra-long ones, Moore’s nails are a perfect middle ground in both inches and style. They are long, yes, but they filed with a blunted tip, which is softened by rounding off the corners, creating smooth sides (the term “squoval” is—you guessed it—a portmanteau of “square and ”oval”). Hence, they are an excellent alternative to other lengths as they’re more comfortable and wearable.

Moore’s manicure in particular is unstuffy thanks to her choice of a nude polish. The effect is more refined than any stiletto nail made up in blood red or even French tips.

Demi Moore has been a Hollywood style icon going on 40 years, and and her on-trend squoval manicure proves she’s not giving up the mantle just yet. This nail style will be especially popular as the holidays approach. If you find it on the plain side, you can always spice up your look with a more high-intensity glam moment—maybe a classic red lip? If that sounds up your alley, you can find a list of Glamour’s Thanksgiving-dinner proof lipsticks right this way.
