Celebrity Style
Traditional diamonds are fine, but these four celebs said “yes” to stones in unusual shapes. While round, sparkly diamonds never go out of style, four celebrity newlyweds and brides-to-be are indicating that fancy-shaped stones—which include any that aren’t round, brilliant-cut gems—are where engagement rings are headed in 2022. If celebrity choices really influence people’s purchasing decisions, these four beauties may be trendsetters.

THE SHAPE OF THE FUTURE
JENNIFER LAWRENCE THE SHAPE: Emerald-cut stones have an elongated rectangular shape and give off an elegant, sophisticated vibe. They’re typically in less demand than other stone styles, making emerald cuts generally more affordable—as well as a lot more distinctive. THE GIRL: Hollywood darling Jennifer Lawrence certainly marches to her own drummer (remember when JLaw fell on stage while accepting her Academy Award and totally owned it?), so a runof-the-mill diamond simply wouldn’t do. Plus, the elegant emerald-cut pairs well with the timeless Dior gowns Lawrence wears on the red carpet—she’s been the face of the luxury brand for years now— and the ring perfectly accessorized the designer’s 1920s-esque wedding dress, which she wore to her October 2019 nuptials. THE RING: The actress’s husband, Cooke Maroney, is an art dealer, so it’s no wonder he proposed with such an eye-catching and one-of-a-kind stunner. Experts guess the ring is a four- to five-carat center stone in a white gold or platinum solitaire setting.
