Daintier rings have made way for chunky rings and engagement styles that showcase maximalist looks. Wide band rings with multiple gems are making a big statement as one of 2024’s newest engagement ring trends. Choose a standalone maximalist ring or recreate the ring trend by combining several rings, such as anniversary bands, alongside a thicker engagement ring.
This dual shank ring encompasses some of 2024’s biggest maximalist ring trends, with rows of diamonds and sidestones that enhance the center stone of your choosing. Maximalist styles like this show off engagement ring designs that make a big impact.
East West Settings
Bring new energy to classic diamond shapes with an east west ring setting. These settings take the traditional vertical orientation of rings and flip the main gemstone on its side, creating a unique look. East west rings are sure to be some of 2024’s most popular engagement rings, thanks to their special combination of innovative design with familiar shapes and styles.
This horizontal trendy engagement ring design is best for elongated gemstone shapes such as marquise diamonds, emerald diamonds, pear diamonds, radiant diamonds and oval diamonds.

This men’s dual–color ring showcases the stylish drama two different tones can add to an engagement ring. In women’s rings, the mixed metal look can be more prominent with two intertwined shades in this ring, or more subtle in the style of this solitaire ring featuring a hidden rose gold braid.
Pops of Color
Bright colors are a leading choice for 2024’s trendy engagement rings. Some of the most popular engagement rings for this year feature colorful diamonds and gemstones. These vibrant gems can serve as the main stone in a ring, or as sidestones to enhance a main stone.
Many gemstones are perfect for engagement rings, adding special meaning and stunning color to jewelry. Gems such as sapphires, emeralds, rubies, tanzanite and morganite are popular choices for engagement styles. Explore our wide selection of gemstone engagement rings to find the right fit.
