    My friend John is the chicest person I know. Clad in Dior, and always perfectly manicured, I trust his style advice implicitly; from his ridiculously-small Jacqumeus bag to his stingray-finished coffee table, everything about him exudes style and understated opulence. He's rambled for years about his future Margiela engagement ring, and with its asymmetrical band and two half-moon diamonds, it's the kind of ring that could make anyone want to break away from the traditional rock. Unfortunately, the Margiela gem itself has been sold out for quite some time—a tragedy!—but more gorgeous, non-traditional engagement rings are available. For you, I went ahead and selected the very best.

    Mina Ring

    Selim Mouzannar Mina Ring

    Fashion girls are falling for all of Selim's pieces, and this ring is no exception.

    Gold and Sterling Silver Topaz Ring

    Fred Leighton Gold and Sterling Silver Topaz Ring

    Lotus Ring

    Polly Wales Lotus Ring

    Platinum Old Mine Cut Diamond Ring

    Nicole Rose Platinum Old Mine Cut Diamond Ring

    18k Gold White Ring

    Simon G. 18k Gold White Ring

    White Gold Diamond Ring

    Suzanne Kalan White Gold Diamond Ring
    $6000.00 AT NET-A-PORTER.COM
