Fashion plays an important role during festival season, since music and self-expression go hand-in-hand, and this year, Aldi launched a festival-inspired nail art collection—complete with designs that pay tribute to pantry staples like baked beans, butter and ketchup. According to new research of 2,000 Brits commissioned by the supermarket, well over a third (38%) of festivalgoers prioritize bold nail designs as part of their festival outfit, and 39% of Brits say a festival manicure is just as important as a tent.
The nail art designs, crafted by nail artist and Instagram star @soph_builds_nails include detailed recreations of familiar items sold at Aldi, and people have the chance to get their hands on the limited-edition 3D nails as part of a competition.
