When it comes to nail art, we're all ears. Even more interesting though, is combining a trendy nail shape with designs that inspire us. And while we love all types of shapes (square, oval, round, etc.), it's coffin nails that have us in a chokehold.

Also known as ballerina nails, the shape looks like a stiletto nail but with a square tip rather than leaving it pointy. And it's been seen on countless celebrities, notably Kylie Jenner, Rosalía, and Rihanna, who all lean into creative designs when sporting them.

So, to inspire your next visit to the nail salon, we scoured Instagram to find some of the best looks. From sleek and minimal designs to 3D art that deserves a spot in a museum, here are 15 of our favorite coffin nail designs.

Malachite is known as a protective stone, so channel its vibes and energy by wearing its bold green patterns on your nails. Wear it as Barbie Ferreira did in this photo, in a French manicure-inspired way with tiny gold dots on two accent nails. Or go all out and paint it over your full nails.

Rosalía is known for her out-there and trendy nail designs, so it's no wonder her multi-colored tie-dye set is amongst our favorites.

Keep it sweet and simple by adding a little gold foil to several of your nails on top of a nude base — it's feminine and timeless.

Nail art is all about having fun, and this is as playful as it gets. Each nail has different colorways that mimic the 3D gummy bears on each nail, and it's so sweet!
