Longing for logos of your own in the wake of Fashion Week in New York?
A fun spin at Spa Emilia in Chicago is manicures (and pedicures) with the Louis Vuitton logo, painted on, or Chanel CC monogram, painted or in crystals.
“I suggest jokingly to clients, if you can’t afford the purse, why not have this on your nail? And you’ll feel, right away, better!” says Spa Emilia co-owner Grace Sniezynski (who modestly declines to confirm InStyle magazine’s report that she manicures Oprah, a logo in her own right).
Typically, the monogram is applied to a single finger–“the baby finger,” Sniezynski says. “Some customers might like it on every nail. It’s up to the imagination.”
For those whose own brand is imagination enough, the spa also paints your own initial in retro-fashion script on thumbs and piggies.
Price for a monogram manicure on one finger is $37, $57 on a pedicure.
Spa Emilia is at 21 W. Elm St., 312-951-7415.
