Margot Robbie's Latest Mani Is as Anti-Barbie as Possible—and We Love It
In the past few months, we've become pretty accustomed to seeing Margot Robbie in various shades of pink. When you play the titular character in the Barbie movie, it's to be expected. At the premiere for her new movie, Saltburn, Robbie walked the red carpet in a look that was practically the polar opposite of Barbie—particularly her nails.
You may or may not have heard that short nails are in right now. Everywhere we look, it seems like celebrities are ditching their ultra-long manicures for simple, short nails. Robbie not only walked the carpet with short nails, but they were also a custom shade of khaki green.
Celebrity manicurist Tom Bachik did Robbie's nails for the premiere. To create the perfect short, rounded shape, Bachik reached for a travel kit from his own collaboration with Tweezerman. For the ultimate khaki green, Bachik mixed together two different Chanel nail colors.
The resulting manicure perfectly complimented Robbie's sheer, corseted black dress. Clearly, Robbie is exiting her Barbie era and entering a completely new one. If we're going to keep getting looks like this, we're looking forward to it.

This color is close to Beige Cendre, Robbie's nail color that is no longer available.
This moody brown is similar to Brune Fumé, the second color Bachik used on Robbie.
