Engagement Trends 2025 

 

In 2025, engagement rings are evolving to reflect stronger values. Couples-to-be no longer want only a pretty jewel, but a piece that tells their story and carries meaning. They are looking for diamond rings that combine elegance, authenticity, and respect for the environment. More than ever, ethical fine jewelry has become essential, with bespoke creations that unite style and commitment.

Couples are favoring durable, certified materials, as well as laboratory-grown diamonds, for a jewel with a low ecological footprint. These stones, just as brilliant as natural diamonds, make it possible to choose a ring that respects both the planet and their values. Bespoke jewelry is also increasingly popular: a unique way to imagine together a symbol that reflects their love.

The trend is clear: in 2025, luxury is not limited to a jewel’s appearance. It also rests on the story it tells and the way it is made. Whether through a bold colored diamond, a minimalist design, or a one-of-a-kind hand-crafted ring, every detail matters in creating a precious piece that will last a lifetime. Here is an overview of the styles and inspirations that will make future engagements shine.

 

1. Personalization and Symbolism: a story to tell

 

The search for authenticity takes center stage in the choice of engagement rings in 2025. Couples want far more than a simple jewel: they are looking for a one-of-a-kind piece that tells their story and symbolizes their precious moments. This desire for personalization often takes the form of bespoke creations that reflect their personality and shared memories.

Intimate symbols are increasingly sought after. A special engraving with a date, a sweet word, or a meaningful phrase can make all the difference. Some choose motifs inspired by astrology or incorporate birthstones to add an even more personal touch.

The use of inherited materials is also enjoying real success. Reusing a gemstone or melting down a family jewel gives new life to an object rich with history. This gesture makes the ring even more precious and full of meaning. It is a way to blend tradition and modernity, while choosing a durable, environmentally responsible approach. 

At Lauredi, we offer a bespoke creation service to support this desire for personalization. Every step of the process is designed to meet the expectations of couples-to-be: from the choice of materials to the final design. We turn every idea into a unique, precious piece, made in France with ethically sourced materials, or using your stones and your gold. You can book an appointment for a free consultation.

In short, personalization allows couples-to-be to create a unique jewel, filled with emotion and memories. Every detail—whether a choice of stone or a discreet symbol—turns the ring into a true treasure, designed to stand the test of time and mark the story of a lifetime.

 

2. The return of platinum and mixed metals: modernity and tradition

 

After a long reign of yellow gold and white gold, platinum returns to the forefront in 2025. This precious metal appeals through its exceptional strength and its understated luster that endures over time without losing its beauty. Its rarity makes it a prestigious choice, ideal for those who want a ring that combines elegance and durability. In addition, its silvery tone harmonizes perfectly with colorless diamonds and colored stones, adding a refined touch to creations.

 Mixed metals are also highly sought after this year. Rings that combine different metals, such as yellow gold and platinum or white gold and rose gold, bring a subtle yet sophisticated contrast. This marriage of tones makes it possible to create modern, bold, and decidedly unique designs. These pairings give rings character while remaining elegant and timeless. 

Mixing metals is especially appreciated for its ability to tell a story: each color can symbolize an important milestone or a special bond. Some couples even choose matching wedding bands, playing with brushed or polished finishes to reflect their differences and their complementarity.

 

3. Colored Diamonds: boldness and refinement

 

In 2025, colored diamonds are establishing themselves as a true favorite for couples-to-be seeking originality. These precious stones, in rare and refined hues, tell unique stories. The pink diamond, a symbol of tenderness and passionate love, continues to fascinate with its delicate shades, ranging from powder pink to deep pink. For those who want to make a lasting impression, the blue diamond is a majestic choice. Associated with serenity and loyalty, it evokes the depth of shared emotions. Finally, the green diamond, a true jewel of nature, is prized for its rarity and its symbolism of renewal and hope. Unlike the emerald, known for its natural inclusions and more opaque appearance, the green diamond stands out for its brilliant transparency and its play of light, offering a sparkle that is both vivid and sophisticated.

At Lauredi, these exceptional stones are showcased in our bespoke creations and in collections such as Loop, where modernity and elegance meet. Each colored diamond enhances the clean-lined designs of the Andrea engagement rings, conceived to reflect the singularity of every love story. Whether you choose a minimalist setting to let the stone shine in all its splendor, or a halo of finer diamonds to accentuate its reflections, each piece is crafted with care to capture the emotion of the moment.

Champagne and cognac diamonds also continue to charm with their warm, golden reflections. Their natural tones bring a discreet, sophisticated elegance, ideal for those seeking an alternative to classic diamonds without being too bold. Unlike stones such as topaz or citrine, whose reflections can vary with the light, these diamonds keep their golden glow from every angle. For a bolder touch, black diamonds offer a mysterious, modern radiance, perfect for strong personalities who want a ring that stands apart. Unlike onyx, which is an opaque stone, the black diamond subtly reflects light, giving it an appearance that is both raw and precious.

 With our 18-carat gold rings and our ethical laboratory-grown diamonds, the Loop collection offers bespoke designs where every detail matters. Choosing a colored diamond means choosing an engagement ring that combines beauty, symbolism, and originality. These stones tell more than a love story: they embody a precious legacy, designed to stand the test of time and shine at every moment.

4. Asymmetrical designs and Art Deco influence: creativity and elegance 

Asymmetrical designs are gaining momentum in 2025, offering modern, dynamic compositions. Off-center settings, irregular shapes, and displaced stones create a style that is original and refined.

Art Deco continues to inspire many designers with its geometric lines, stepped motifs, and emerald-cut or trapezoid-cut stones. These designs bring a retro-chic touch to modern creations, appealing to lovers of timeless jewelry.

 

5. Ethical commitment and durability: responsible luxury

In 2025, ethics are at the heart of couples-to-be’s concerns. More than a simple jewel, they want a ring that embodies their values. Buyers are looking for creations made responsibly, with durable, traceable materials. Laboratory-grown diamonds continue to appeal thanks to their exceptional brilliance and low environmental impact. Unlike natural diamonds, whose extraction can be costly for the planet, laboratory-grown diamonds offer the same purity and the same sparkle, with no compromise on quality.

Recycled gold has also become essential. By reusing metals that have already been mined, makers limit environmental impact while offering jewelry that is just as luxurious. Each ring made in recycled gold tells a new story without forgetting its heritage. At Lauredi, we favor this gold to create modern, timeless pieces, perfectly aligned with our vision of ethical fine jewelry that respects the environment.

Today’s couples want to commit with jewelry that carries meaning, by choosing materials from responsible channels. This includes not only laboratory-grown diamonds, but also gemstones from certified sources, where every stage of production is transparent and respectful of workers. This attention to detail reflects a desire to celebrate love while preserving the planet.

This trend illustrates an important shift in luxury: a jewel’s beauty is no longer limited to its appearance, but also includes the story of its materials and the way it was conceived. In 2025, true luxury is responsible, mindful, and lasting, and every detail matters in offering a symbol of love that is as precious as it is respectful.

 

6. “Divorce ring”: a new symbolism of independence

An unexpected trend in 2025 is the rise of “divorce rings,” following the example of Emilie Ratachovsky, whose transformation of her engagement ring into a divorce ring was widely discussed on social networks. Unlike traditional engagement rings, these jewels celebrate regained independence after a separation. Popularized by certain celebrities, these rings are often set with powerful stones such as the black diamond or sapphire, symbolizing strength and resilience.

Like all older jewelry, or pieces you no longer wear, melting down your engagement ring to give it a new meaning and a new life is possible. At Lauredi, we offer a bespoke service that can bring your project to life—whether for an engagement or a divorce.

7. Minimalist bands: elegant simplicity

In contrast to bolder designs, minimalist rings continue to appeal to lovers of clean-lined design. Simple bands in gold or platinum, sometimes set with a small center stone or even without a gem, embody timeless elegance. This trend emphasizes the quality of the materials and the beauty of simple lines, reflecting a “less is more” approach.

 

8. Organic shapes and natural motifs: a tribute to nature

Nature-inspired designs are growing in popularity. Organic shapes, such as leaf-, branch-, or drop-shaped settings, bring a poetic dimension to engagement rings.

Stones with irregular shapes, such as rough diamonds or artisan-cut diamonds, reinforce this trend toward controlled imperfection, where every detail tells an authentic story.

 

Conclusion: expressing love through a unique jewel

In 2025, engagement rings reflect couples’ personalities and values more than ever. Between personalization, boldness, and responsibility, each creation becomes a unique symbol of love and commitment. Whether it is an ethical laboratory-grown diamond or an engraved luxury watch, what matters most is choosing a jewel that embodies a shared story, engraved for eternity.
