EXQUISITE HIDDEN HALO ENGAGEMENT RINGS SET TO DOMINATE IN 2025

In the ever-evolving world of engagement ring designs, the hidden halo is one of the latest trends in jewellery for 2025. This unique design combines the classic elegance of a halo setting with a subtle modern twist. The hidden halo adds a subtle yet romantic touch of sparkle, enhancing the central diamond without overpowering it. This sophisticated design appeals to those seeking a contemporary reimagining of the classic engagement ring.

Celebrity favourites like Kim Kardashian, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and Hailey Bieber have embraced the hidden halo design, choosing to elevate their engagement rings with a blend of timeless beauty and modern sophistication. At Gerard McCabe, we’re thrilled to introduce our very own hidden halo design: the Collette engagement ring. Inspired by the romance of Paris, the Collette features a cathedral setting that beautifully showcases the central diamond, enhanced by a hidden halo of sparkling diamonds. This ring pairs effortlessly with most designs in our Linea ring collection, allowing you to curate a personalised and unique bridal set.
