Engagement Ring Style Trends of 2025

A luxe recap of the diamond ring styles that defined the year. 

As the new year is upon us, it’s the perfect time to reflect on the engagement ring designs that captured hearts in 2025. From classics to beautifully unique designs, this year’s trends showcase elegance and personal meaning. 

Let’s explore the styles that defined the year for the 2025 brides-to-be.

1. The Meaningful Trilogy Setting 

One of the most beloved designs of the year is the trilogy engagement ring. The trilogy design symbolises the past, present and future, making it a deeply meaningful choice for couples. A popular option featured an Oval Brilliant Cut diamond as the centre stone, with two pear shaped diamonds gracefully positioned on each side creating a harmonious and feminine silhouette.

The trilogy engagement ring design set in 18ct gold is not just beautiful, yet also carries a powerful story. An Oval Brilliant Cut centre offers incredible finger-flattering proportions, while the pears add a delicate sparkle that feels both modern and feminine. 

2. The Classic Round Diamond with a Twist

Featuring in this year's standout styles is the Round Brilliant Cut diamond with a twist band. This ring design beautifully intertwines one gold band and one diamond band for an effortlessly feminine look. The design celebrates love with bands that are gracefully woven together, adding a touch of artistry to the band. It is elegant and endlessly meaningful, as this style is symbolic of two lives joining as one. 

With a Round Brilliant cut centre, the ring maintains its classic luxury while offering a stylish way to celebrate love beautifully intertwined. Round Brilliant Cut diamonds have long held their crown as the most popular diamond choice, and 2025 proved no exception.

3. The Forever Elegant Oval Brilliant Cut Diamond

The Oval Brilliant Cut diamond continued to be a favourite as one of the most sought-after shapes of 2025. Similarly to round brilliant cut diamonds, Oval has been a classic shape for decades. They offer a timeless look with a soft elegance and their silhouette naturally elongates the hand and creates a flattering appearance from every angle. 

Brides continue to be drawn to their graceful proportions and understated glamour and often choose the Oval Brilliant cut for its ability to feel both classic and contemporary. 

4. The Elongated Cushion Cut, A Modern Favourite

The Elongated Cushion Cut had a major moment this year. While Cushion Brilliant cuts have always been popular, the demand for the elongated proportions surged in 2025. The appeal is undeniable, as it combines the flattering proportions of an oval with the soft romantic edges of a cushion. 

Offering a modern look that feels both luxurious and unique. On the hand, an elongated cushion cut is both sleek and incredibly photogenic. This diamond shape was incredibly popular and highly requested by our clients, staying in high demand all year long for 2025. 

5. North South East West Claws: Radiant 

This year, one style rising to the top is the North-South-East-West claw setting with a Radiant cut centre. Proving that some of the most original designs and interesting pieces are unapologetically simple. The change in placement of the claws into a North-South-East-West setting highlights the shape of the Radiant cut for a bold and reimagined style. 

The innovative placement of the claws accentuates the true beauty of the Radiant shape diamond whilst being infinitely sophisticated. Making it an eye catching and unique choice. Radiant cut diamonds are long admired for their glittery and fiery sparkle.  

6. Alternating Round & Marquise Diamond band 

Lastly, the alternating Round and Marquise Diamond band engagement ring style proved incredibly popular for 2025. This design gives the ring a dainty and refined feel that is full of character and glamour for a one of a kind engagement ring.

A lot of our clients were drawn to this style set with a Marquise Brilliant Cut centre because of its bold and eye-catching look together with this band design. The mix of diamond shapes along the band adds movement and sparkle, making it a perfect choice for brides who wanted a truly unique engagement ring.
