Megan Fox’s Two-Stone Engagement Ring Is the First Major Bridal Trend of 2022

Megan Fox’s Two-Stone Engagement Ring Is the First Major Bridal Trend of 2022

Two-stone engagement rings are dynamic and unique, but Megan Fox isn’t the first star to choose the dual-stone shape. Called “toi-et-moi” rings, celebs including Solange Knowles, Emily Ratajkowski, and Ariana Grande have given the romantic ring shape a recent revival.

The “toi-et-moi” ring dates back to the 18th century. Translating to “you and me” in French, the ring features two stones set side-by-side on a band that coils together, as to represent the lovers’ commitment to each other. Napoleon Bonaparte is recorded as one of the first people to adopt the toi-et-moi ring trend. In 1796, he proposed to Joséphine de Beauharnais with a diamond-and-sapphire toi-et moi-ring. Each of the two gems is said to weigh a little under one carat, and the Bonaparte/Beauharnais ring recently went up for auction in 2013 at a starting price of £14,600 and sold for around £695,800.

Following Bonaparte’s proposal to Beauharnais, John F. Kennedy proposed to Jacqueline Bouvier with a diamond-and-emerald toi-et-moi ring in 1953. The Kennedy/Bouvier ring featured a 2.88 carat diamond set beside a 2.84 carat emerald, and was designed by Van Cleef & Arpels. More recently, Solange Knowles started a toi-et-moi revival amongst the celebrity set when she debuted an art deco two-stone engagement ring in 2014 that included an emerald-cut and a square-cut diamond.

In 2018, Emily Ratajkowski added to the toi-et-moi trend and designed a massive two-stone diamond ring that included a princess-cut and a pear-cut stone. Since then, we’ve seen the two-stone engagement ring trend become a mainstay in the bridal industry. Ariana Grande debuted a two-stone ring when she announced her proposal to Dalton Gomez in 2020. Grande’s ring featured a tilted oval-shaped diamond next to a delicate freshwater pearl. In 2021, Kylie Jenner and daughter Stormi Webster were gifted matching diamond two-stone rings from Travis Scott. And now in 2022, Megan Fox has added to the momentum and declared the toi-et-moi engagement ring one of the first big bridal trends of 2022. Fox’s ring featured two pear-shaped stones, of which the diamond represents Machine Gun Kelly’s birthstone and the emerald represented Fox’s.
