Congratulations are in order for Dua Lipa and Callum Turner. The singer just announced their engagement in her cover story with British Vogue. It seems the big hint was right in front of us for quite some time.
In her December 2024 Christmas Eve photo dump, Lipa was first spotted wearing a diamond ring on left ring finger, traditionally reserved for an engagement, prompting some speculation. There are outliers, however, as some are increasingly opting to wear whatever they please on their left ring finger. And Lipa’s very style of unique engagement ring may have helped her fly under the radar for so long, even after flaunting it in a selfie (or two) and on vacation.
Below, we dive into all the details of Dua Lipa’s engagement ring from Callum Turner.
Who designed Dua Lipa’s engagement ring?
While the jeweler has yet to be named or come forward, we do know Turner got the ring custom made for Lipa with the help of her best friends and sister. The design is so in line with the singer’s taste she told British Vogue, “It’s so me. It’s nice to know the person that you’re going to spend the rest of your life with knows you very well.”
What is Dua Lipa’s engagement ring style called?
The style of Lipa’s engagement ring features a round cut diamond, which is one of the “most beloved and traditional choice for engagement rings,” according to diamond expert Maxwell Stone of UK retailer Steven Stone. The gem is “tension set – using compression to hold a centre stone in place, tension settings create the illusion that the stone is effortlessly suspended between two pieces of metal or integrated within the band,” per Stone. This, in addition to the thick band, makes the ring quite unique. “The thick gold band is a bold design choice itself, as opposed to a more traditional thin ring band,” says Ella Citron-Thompkins, from Diamonds Factory.
Are styles like Dua Lipa’s engagement ring trending?
It may be too early to say if this will be a major trend, but Stone says “the bold, thick band creates a striking contrast to the classic diamond shape, lending the ring a modern, fashion-forward edge.”
We do know there’s a new wave of unique engagement rings like Lipa’s trending. For example, Zendaya’s engagement ring from Tom Holland features an east-west diamond, which has been gaining popularity thanks to the celebrity couple. So, it wouldn’t come as a surprise if Lipa’s engagement ring starts a trend too.
