The terms ‘Old Money’ and ‘Quiet Luxury’ have gained more than a billion views on TikTok. The fascination with this aesthetic is a movement towards a classic, elegant and refined style. Every decade, there is an evolution of engagement ring trends. The 'Old Money' style is typically associated with the upper-class style from Europe and North America. ‘Old Money’ is defined by affluent individuals and families whose wealth has been inherited over generations rather than earned.
