From Regional Japan to the World: Nail Brand LumiNailStudio/AyuLumi to Debut at Paris Runway in Autumn 2026

Nail Brand LumiNailStudio to Debut at Paris Runway in Autumn 2026

Nail brand LumiNailStudio is pleased to announce its upcoming participation in a runway event in Paris, France, scheduled for autumn 2026.

AyuLumi is a nail designer based in Uwajima City, Ehime Prefecture, Japan.

She translates emotions and thoughts that are difficult to express into words into nail art, pouring her feelings into every single piece she creates.

The designer behind the brand, AyuLumi, made her debut as a nail designer with the "Tsumahanashi" (Nail Artist) team and was selected as a member of the overseas selection team, "Tsumahanashi Team JAPAN."

Each of her works carries a different theme, expressing sentiments she feels at the time—such as hope, conflict, wounds, expectations for the future, complexes, and ways of life—from her unique perspective.

She pursues nail art not merely as decoration, but as a form of art that conveys human hearts and thoughts.

This Paris runway appearance represents the first step of her challenge to reach the world from her regional base.

Using nail art as a medium of expression, AyuLumi continues to create one-of-a-kind works that leave a lasting impression on hearts, transcending nations and languages.

While details regarding the works to be unveiled in Paris remain undisclosed as they are currently in production, she is actively creating new pieces for this runway.

AyuLumi will continue to challenge herself in various venues, including runways and the art scene, expanding the possibilities of nail art while continuing to create pieces that resonate with many people.
