In our new FW’26 issue, we take you to the south of France and to Renée and Jan’s wedding, which was a celebration of love, friendship and style. We also sit down with Louis Abel founder Jimmy Loutfi for an in-depth interview about how his own wedding rings marked the start of a new chapter in fine jewellery, and look ahead to New York Bridal Fashion Week for the silhouettes, details and ideas that will set the tone for the coming season.

Find the perfect style: How to choose your engagement and wedding rings
An engagement ring is one of life’s most meaningful pieces of jewellery and the start of a symbol that will be worn forever. Here, we guide you through different ring styles and what you should bear in mind to create a beautiful and harmonious combination with your wedding ring.

Alma VestlundChoosing an engagement ring is one of the most personal and significant decisions you’ll make in the run-up to a proposal. The ring should not only symbolise your love, but also suit the style you’ll wear every day and harmonise with the wedding ring that will later complete the set.
That’s why it’s wise to consider right from the start which design feels just right, whether you’re dreaming of a classic solitaire ring with a brilliant-cut diamond, a romantic halo ring, a vintage-inspired style or a more modern and minimalist design.
When choosing an engagement ring, it’s important to consider how it will match your wedding band.
The choice of metal plays a major role; many people choose the same material for both rings to create a unified look, such as yellow gold, white gold, rose gold or platinum. The ring’s profile and setting also affect how well the rings sit together, particularly if the engagement ring has a larger centre stone. A detailed engagement ring can be effectively paired with a simpler wedding band, whilst a sleek solitaire ring often looks beautiful alongside a diamond-set band.
The diamond’s cut also influences the character of the ring.
The classic brilliant cut is a timeless choice offering maximum brilliance, whilst oval, cushion and emerald-cut stones create different looks depending on personal taste. The most important thing is to choose a ring that feels right for the person who will wear it and that reflects both their style and personality.
