Pantone’s colour of the year is Cloud Dancer, a specific shade of white that Novakovic expects to see popping up in salons in 2026. According to Pantone the colour Cloud Dancer was selected for its “calming presence, its ability to inspire reflection and its versatility in a variety of design disciplines”. The versatile shade also works no matter the length or shape of your nail.

“Darker shades of brown have dominated fashion and beauty for some time now,” Novakovic shares. “In 2026, I believe that browns will be lighter and cooler tones will appear, such as dark beige and cappuccino.”
