Fashion’s Coolest Brides Are Reviving This Engagement Ring

Congratulations are in order for Devon Lee Carlson! The model, influencer, and entrepreneur just announced her engagement on Instagram, where her comments section was quickly filled with high-profile well-wishers like Kendall Jenner, Hailey Bieber, Emily Ratajkowski, Lila Moss, and others. That kind of star power is expected for someone who models for Burberry, Chanel, and Ralph Lauren, but Carlson’s connections aren’t limited to the fashion industry. Her fiancé, Duke Nicholson, has one of the most famous last names in Hollywood, courtesy of his grandfather, Jack Nicholson.

With one larger round diamond flanked by two smaller ones, Carlson’s engagement ring is so classic. Oval solitaire rings, like those worn by Selena Gomez, Sofia Richie Grainge, and Hailee Steinfeld, are not going anywhere, but they’re far from the only popular style. “Carlson’s ring is very much on trend,” Olivia Landau, founder of The Clear Cut, told Who What Wear. “Many celebrities, including Taylor Swift, are leaning into antique cut diamonds and vintage-inspired settings. The diamond also appears to have a beautiful, warm candlelight color to it. Another big trend in natural diamond engagement rings is embracing diamonds with warmer color grades.”

Landau also shared her expert analysis of the ring. “It looks like an Old European cut three-stone ring set in a Georgian button back bezel setting with a yellow gold band,” Landeau told Who What Wear. “The center stone appears to be around 3 to 4 carats.”
