Engagement ring trends of Autumn 2018
Do you like to keep up with the trends? We know what’s in this season. Choosing the right stone, cut and band is a lot to think about, but there’s a reason some choices are more popular than others. From yellow diamonds to rose gold bands here are the latest engagement ring crazes that every bride should know about.
Stone – Yellow diamonds
Yellow diamonds are quickly becoming one of the top choices for brides wanting something a little less traditional. The warmth of yellow diamonds with a fancy or intense grading are the perfect Autumn hue, especially when surrounded by white diamonds to emphasise the remarkable colouring. Yellow diamond engagement rings have been worn by several of the world’s biggest names including Heidi Klum, Nicki Minaj, Kelly Clarkson and Iggy Azalea.
Cut – Oval
The oval cut has never been as popular as many of the other options, but this is starting to change. With several high-profile celebrities including Blake Lively, Serena Williams and Ashley Greene sporting oval cut engagement rings, many modern brides after a more unusual style are following suit. With the ability to make the stone appear larger and fingers appear more slender, its no wonder why this cut is one of the biggest trends this season.
Band – Rose gold
Rose gold has a romantic and feminine appeal unlike any other precious metal used in engagement rings. It has become one of the biggest trends in everything from technology to homewares and jewellery is no different. Rose gold engagement rings have been the choice of Alison Brie, Leighton Meester and Hayden Patteniere and their popularity won’t be declining anytime soon.
