Engagement Ring Trends: Hottest Bridal Styles

Staying at the forefront of trending styles isn't easy. Luckily, you have an expert team at GMG Jewelers on your side, ready to fill you in on every trending style. If you're planning on proposing or looking for an engagement ring of your own, our helpful guide summarizes the most in-demand bridal styles.

Deco Chic

Art Deco-inspired engagement rings are the latest rage. They feature geometric patterns and often come in coloured gemstones. Think emerald, ruby, or sapphire. Art Deco rings are usually topped with a large rectangular center stone, square halos, or other sharp-edged designs.

Hearts On Fire's Deco Chic Collection features bold and deco-inspired designs for the one who values that vintage look. Shop square-cut designs with double halos and tons of geometric detailing. Its architecturally-inspired design is sure to turn heads.

Angelic Delights

If you or a loved one can't get enough of an engagement ring's signature diamond sparkle, you will love the recent trend of halo designs. A border of small and brilliant stones can instantly amplify a diamond's radiance. This year, the classic halo gets a makeover with a wide range of designs and styles.

For those who like to keep things minimalistic, delicate halos offer a sharp and subtle design that can capture one's attention without being too obvious. If you're looking for a bolder look, a double halo or a floral halo can spice up the traditional halo design. Double or even triple halos make a loud and clear statement. Floral halos maintain a charming and delicate allure.

Chic and Elegant

If you're looking for something a little different than the traditional round or princess-cut, consider the trend of elongated diamond shapes. Oval and emerald cuts can give the illusion of a larger diamond size compared to a round diamond.

An emerald cut features step-cut faceting, which can increase the clarity of inclusion-free diamonds. However, any marks are clearly displayed on the elongated surface of the emerald cut diamond.

Oval cut diamonds have a similar look to round diamonds but have a more slender shape, which can have a slimming effect on the ring finger.

Delicate Strands

Split shank engagement rings are more popular than ever. Split shank designs feature shanks split into two. The 2 strands of metal separate and meet at the center stone. Small diamonds can adorn the shanks to add additional brilliance next to the negative space.

Michael M's Defined Collection features an array of split shank styles that overlap in luxurious fashion. Paired with a halo design and remarkable side stones, these contemporary creations are eye-catching and fashion-forward.

Avant-Garde

Skip the classic and simple solitaire and go for the unexpected. Shop from a wide range of avant-garde designs by the world's most original designers. Luxury meets originality when you choose unexpected cuts, settings, styles, and colours.

For instance, Claude Thibaudeau's Avant-Garde Collection features striking designs with luxurious curves, mixed metals, and overlapping shank designs. Uniquely mounted stones place it in the best light for ultimate light reflection.
