The Latest Engagement Rings Trends

This year has demonstrated that engagement rings, a classic representation of affection, keep on transforming. From timeless designs with a unique flair to modern trends, there is an option for every taste and style.
In this guide we share the latest on the top trends we’ve seen this year and that are expected to carry into the next.
TREND #1 Diamond Alternatives
When considering engagement rings, your thoughts may immediately turn to diamonds of different shapes and styles. However, do you know that these sparklers can exist without natural diamond stones? Specialists anticipate that engagement rings featuring diamond alternatives—such as rings with gems like Moissanite, Lab-grown diamonds, and Cubic Zirconia—will gain further popularity next year.

Labgrown gems can add sentimental significance to all types of engagement rings. Every gemstone holds its distinct symbolism, rendering them more personal and significant options for engagement rings. They enhance the emotional richness of the ring’s meaning, and the charm of these vibrant stones attracts those looking for an alternative to classic natural diamonds.
TREND #2 Elongated Diamond Styles: Oval-Cut Diamonds, Emerald-Cut Diamonds, and Pear-Shaped Diamonds
Some diamond shapes appear larger than others. Shapes that are elongated will consistently look larger, carat-for-carat, than symmetrical shapes such as round, cushion, or princess.
Oval-cut diamonds – In recent years, oval-cut diamonds have been gaining popularity, and justifiably so! Their graceful design, in addition to being exceptionally beautiful, lengthens the finger and enhances carat size. They represent a contemporary take on the traditional round cut, making them popular among future brides.
Emerald-cut diamond – The embodiment of refinement and vintage-inspired design, the emerald cut highlights the diamond’s clarity, making it a top choice for those who value subtle elegance.
Pear-shaped diamond – The distinctive teardrop shape of a pear-cut diamond merges aspects of both contemporary and classic styles. They are stylish and sophisticated and similar to other stretched diamond shapes, they create the illusion of a longer finger.
TREND #3 Two-Stone (Toi et Moi) Bands
Toi et Moi is French for “you and I,” this trend has swiftly risen to become one of the most sought-after styles of 2024. Several prominent celebrities have also opted for this style in their engagement rings recently.
The Toi et Moi ring showcases two diamonds, usually of varying shapes, placed next to each other, representing the bond between two souls. The perfect pairing would be a pear-cut diamond with an emerald-cut diamond.
This design is also ideal for gemstones! Whether you choose two distinct birthstones or simply experiment with color shades, there are countless methods to customize your one-of-a-kind Toi et Moi Ring.
TREND #4 Yellow Gold
Yellow gold, flattering and suited to various skin tones, has made a notable resurgence. It gives an old-world and enduring charm to engagement rings and truly enhances the brilliance of your diamonds.
Yellow gold complements all types of engagement rings, whether they are traditional, vintage, or modern. Its adaptability makes it an ideal selection for all types of jewelry settings, not solely engagement rings.
TREND #5 Hidden Halo Settings
A hidden halo consists of a delicate row of smaller diamonds under the main stone, providing a delightful touch of additional brilliance without overpowering the overall design. It’s an excellent method to boost the center stone’s sparkle while maintaining an elegant and subtle appearance.
TREND #6 East-West Settings
This arrangement showcases the diamond positioned horizontally instead of vertically. It’s a contemporary and surprising approach to engagement rings, offering a distinctive way to showcase your individuality and highlight that stunning diamond. This setting design is most effective with diamonds that are emerald, marquise, or oval in shape.
TREND #7 Solitaire Rings
Solitaires represent a classic engagement ring style and remain consistently in vogue. What do Cardi B, Kourtney Kardashian, and Scarlett Johansson have in common? Each of the three celebrities showcases solitaire engagement rings featuring different styles—a trend that is likely to persist in popularity throughout 2024.
Solitaire configurations have endured through the years and remain enduring classics. Their sleek, yet refined, shape highlights the allure of the solitary center gem, forming a centerpiece that radiates elegance and subtle charm. Although this design has existed for many years, its timeless appeal remains in fashion, particularly as numerous jewelers keep discovering innovative approaches to refresh this engagement ring style.
This trend offers a simple method to refresh a classic look by combining the solitaire ring with a striking band. Regardless of whether the band is twisted, has a split shank, or is embellished with diamonds, these designs introduce personality, texture, and visual appeal to the appearance.
The most exciting aspect is that you can easily remove them for a classic appearance or add additional pieces to enhance the glitter. Countless combinations and choices exist to create a style that is uniquely yours!
TREND #8 Vintage and Art Deco-Inspired Designs
Providing a feeling of history, tradition, and eternity, rings inspired by vintage styles, especially those featuring art deco aspects, are currently in vogue. The complex details, geometric forms, and distinctive backgrounds appear as if they might have been passed down through the years as cherished family treasures.
TREND #9 Minimalist Engagement Rings
The smooth, straightforward aesthetic of minimalism remains impactful in engagement ring styles. The simple contours and subtle refinement create an impression of serene luxury that many people cherish.
Stylist’s Tip: To achieve an impressive appearance, mix this trend with Trend #1 (set with an extended diamond) and Trend #6 (match it with a distinctive band).
TREND #10 Ring Stacks
Why settle for one ring when you can flaunt two or three? Fortunately, the possibilities are endless for you, as ring stacks will be a trend to think about—allowing you to wear several pieces to express your affection.

Stacking rings offers flexibility, which makes us believe its appeal will persist through 2025. Brides can gradually build their collection, offering flexibility in forming various combinations or styles, and every added ring in a stack can represent important milestones or cherished occasions.
These stacks can frequently include anniversary bands, heirlooms, or birthstone rings, enabling brides to wear sentimental and significant items on their hands.
