From juicy apricot to neon, orange nails are already in high demand for summer 2025

Nothing says summer quite like orange nails. They're vibrant and instantly mood-boosting and, contrary to belief, very wearable - especially when paired with a chic linen shirt and black sunglasses.

With subtle, milky pastels having so far dominated the 2025 nail trends, with warmer weather setting in, we're finding ourselves rather in the mood for a change of manicure. Now, don't get us wrong, we've loved all the spring nail colours, but there's something very appealing about channelling an Aperol Spritz or juicy tangerine through our nails. Clearly, the feeling's mutual, as orange nails are already seeing an uptick in demand - a rise that is only set to increase in the months to come.
