How to Pair Your Princess Cut Engagement Ring

Bold, brilliant and beautifully modern, the princess cut engagement ring is having a real moment. In fact, it’s one of the standout shapes in our latest engagement ring trend predictions and for good reason. Its clean lines and striking sparkle make it incredibly versatile when it comes to styling with wedding and eternity bands.

If you’re wondering how to pair your princess cut ring without overpowering it (or losing its wow factor), here are a few elegant and timeless options to consider.


Diamond Bands: Extra Sparkle, Perfect Balance

A diamond band is a classic choice for pairing with a princess cut engagement ring. The key is proportion. A fine pavé or micro-set diamond band enhances the sparkle of your centre stone without competing with it. This option is perfect if you love a cohesive, glamorous look and want your rings to shine together effortlessly.

Diamond bands also work beautifully stacked; ideal if you’re thinking ahead to anniversary or eternity rings.

Wishbone or Curved Bands: Designed to Fit

Because of the princess cut’s square shape, some straight bands can sit awkwardly against it. That’s where wishbone or gently curved bands come in. Designed to hug the engagement ring, they frame the centre stone beautifully while keeping everything comfortable and balanced on the finger.

This is a great choice if you want a more contemporary feel or love the look of a perfectly fitted bridal set.

Plain Bands: Minimal, Modern, Timeless

If your princess cut ring already makes a strong statement, a plain band might be all you need. A simple polished band—whether in yellow gold, white gold or platinum—creates a chic contrast and lets the diamond take centre stage.

This pairing is ideal for lovers of understated elegance and clean, modern styling.
