<p>Though cuts like the solitaire and pear diamond are tried-and-true classics, modern brides appear to be all-in on embracing elongated styles and chunkier silhouettes. From ultra-cool <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/east-west-bag-tote-trend-spring-summer-2025" target="_blank" rel="noopener">east-west</a> settings, &agrave; la Miley Cyrus, to Dua Lipa's flush-set cigar-style band, pop culture's favorite It girls are proving that it's not all about delicate, classic styles&mdash;funkier, modern shapes are chic too.&nbsp;</p>

<p>To be sure, contemporary-looking styles have dominated bridal culture as of late, and as chic as these modern engagement rings are, some brides-to-be simply prefer classic styles. Take <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/taylor-swift-engagement-ring-dress-shoes-watch-outfit-details" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Taylor Swift</a>, for instance. When the singer announced her engagement with a dreamy, romantic photoshoot back in 2025, fans instantly locked onto her engagement ring, featuring an antique-inspired Old Mine-cut diamond. In the time since, other vintage-inspired cuts like Old European and elongated cushion have made similar comebacks.&nbsp;</p>
