Engagement Rings Get a Fashion Makeover for the 21st Century
Even the most traditional of looks can use a facelift from time to time. That is the message young brides are sending out to jewelers across the country as they look beyond the typical styles of engagement rings and begin to explore newer styles.
Online, November 19, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Even the most traditional of looks can use a facelift from time to time. That is the message young brides are sending out to jewelers across the country as they look beyond the typical styles of engagement rings and begin to explore newer styles that they feel better reflect their personalities. Part of this move is being driven by the fact that diamond fashion rings have become more popular, blurring the look between wedding jewelry and everyday jewelry, a fact that has not been lost on many of the top designers.
"The purpose of the traditional diamond engagement ring was always to symbolize that a woman was married or about to be married," a senior form designer at Steel's Jewelry recently said while working on a custom designed wedding set. "Today's woman seems to feel more confident in who they are and they don't feel the need to be as showy with the ring, at least for the purpose of announcing their marital status. Now they are more concerned with making sure they have a ring that fits their sense of style, something that they will be comfortable wearing every day. Let's face it: nobody wears the same piece of jewelry all the time. You mix and match it up with your mood and your outfit. Engagement rings however don't ever change. That is why you are seeing more diamond fashion rings showing up."
As society grapples with the concept of what marriage is and how important an element it is in people's lives, many of the traditions that have long been held are getting upended, or at least amended. It's no surprise that the look of engagement rings is one of those traditions being reviewed. Marriage has never been more about an equal partnership than it is in these modern times, and so the presence of the ring and what it has traditionally stood for is no longer the focal point. Women today feel freer to choose a ring for themselves and not be bound by the rules of society.
