I am an old(er) millennial I guess (1980). A lot of my friends got engaged in 2003ish with 3 stone rings - that's when the past, present, future ad campaign was very popular. I would say most of my friends have 60/40 split between rounds and princess cuts. Well, their original rings. A few have upgraded or reset over the years or added bands. But most of the rings I see in my area on newly engaged girls are halos with split/twisted shanks - and LOTS of pave. And most have smaller center stones. But to be honest, if we were getting engaged now, I am sure I would have gotten a smaller ring than the one my husband purchased in 2003. Diamond prices are a lot higher now!
