Is this the year you’re planning to get engaged? At Henne Jewelers, located in the heart of Pittsburgh, we know how important it is to choose a ring that represents your love and personal style. Engagement rings are more than a statement. They’re a cherished symbol of your commitment both now and forever.
With celebrities like Selena Gomez showing off marquise diamonds and Zendaya opting for an East-West cushion cut, 2025 is shaping up to be an exciting year for engagement ring trends. While styles are influenced by culture and personal values, at Henne Jewelers, we’ve identified key trends that resonate with couples in Pittsburgh and beyond.
Here’s our guide to the 2025 engagement ring edit based on trends and our customers’ favorite styles to help guide you to find or create your dream ring.
Elongated Center Diamonds
Elongated diamond shapes like oval, emerald-cut, radiant, marquise, and elongated cushions are dominating requests. We’re huge fans of this Estate Platinum solitaire ring and this 18K Yellow Gold Modern Classic Solitaire. Couples love these shapes for their versatility and how they appear larger compared to traditional cuts. These cuts also pair beautifully with a single wedding band or stacked bands.
These timeless yet contemporary shapes remain a top choice for Pittsburgh couples who value a mix of elegance and practicality.
Wider Width Bands
The bold jewelry trend carries over into engagement rings with wider-width bands gaining popularity. Look for bands with textured finishes, engraving, or even satin details. Wider bands perfectly complement East-West stones or bezel-set diamonds for a striking, modern aesthetic. These rings offer an elevated, artistic look while remaining timeless.
Bezel-Set Diamonds
2025 brides-to-be are falling in love with bezel settings, particularly in yellow gold. Ideal for medical professionals or anyone who prefers low-profile designs, bezel-set diamonds offer durability without compromising on style.
This secure setting style prevents snagging while showcasing the brilliance of the center stone. It’s a practical and elegant choice that’s particularly popular among Pittsburgh’s busy professionals.
Engagement Rings with Fancy Side Diamonds
Fancy side diamonds like trapezoids, Cadillac cuts, shield-cut diamonds,tapered baguettes, or East-West pear-shape diamonds add a unique flair to engagement rings. These details highlight the center stone while adding subtle contrast. For instance, step-cut side diamonds beautifully frame brilliant-cut center stones, creating a harmonious design that stands out.
Hidden Accents
Couples are falling in love with hidden accents that add a personal touch to classic designs. Hidden halos, gemstone accents in the band, and intricate engraving are all trending in Pittsburgh. These features allow couples to infuse sentimental details into their rings, ensuring the design feels uniquely theirs.
The Rise of Platinum
As gold prices continue to rise, platinum is becoming an increasingly popular option for engagement rings. Durable and elegant, platinum offers a sleek, modern look at a competitive price point. (Take a look at this gorgeous Tacori Founder’s Collection Royal T ring.)
Here at Henne Jewelers, yellow gold remains a strong favorite for our Pittsburgh couples who prefer a warm, traditional aesthetic. It will be interesting to see how much traction the platinum trend will have for our couples as 2025 plays out.
Custom Design
Custom designs allow couples to tell their unique love story through a ring. From mixed metals to intricate details, the possibilities are endless. And, with advanced CAD software and trusted vendors, couples can bring their dream designs to life.
