Lily Collins, the actress known for her work as unlucky-in-love Emily in the cult favorite “Emily in Paris” is certainly not unlucky in love right now.
Lily recently took to Instagram to announce her engagement to writer and director Charlie McDowell. While the couple tends to keep their private lives out of the public eye, the engagement ring Lily received has been making headlines. And with good reason.
Here’s everything you need to know about Lily Collins’ engagement ring.
What kind of ring is Lily Collins’ engagement ring?
Lily’s engagement ring is a one-of-a-kind piece designed by jeweler Irene Neuwirth.
The ring features a stunning rose-cut diamond set in a delicate yellow-gold band. The diamond is surrounded by smaller pavé diamonds that add to the ring’s sparkle and elegance.
The rose-cut diamond is unique in that it has a flat bottom and a faceted top that creates a distinctive, vintage-inspired look.
Rose-cut diamonds were mostly seen during the Victorian era, but are fairly rare as they don’t refract light as well, so lose the glimmer and shine many long for in an engagement ring. However, this allows for a much softer and more romantic look, which is perfect for Lily. In addition to being dreamy and romantic, it also has some more modern elements: one being the beautiful bezel setting. The bezel setting means there is no base behind the stone, so it’s perfectly see-through. Add wide shoulders that taper down and balance out the romanticism nicely, and you’ve got an overall design of the ring that is timeless and sophisticated, making it a true diamond in the rough.
What inspired Lily Collins’s engagement ring?
While the inspiration behind Lily’s engagement ring is not known, it’s clear that the ring is a reflection of her unique style and personality. Lily is known for her love of vintage fashion and classic Hollywood glamour, which is evident in the ring’s design.
Speaking to Kelly Ripa on Live with Kelly and Ryan, Lily explained that her fiance Charlie was responsible for the beautiful design: “It’s a rose-cut diamond. Charlie designed it with Irene Neuwirth Jewellery“. I think we can all agree that Charlie has outdone himself.
The overall effect is a ring that is both elegant and unique, much like Lily herself!
How much did Lily Collins’s engagement ring cost?
The exact cost of Lily’s engagement ring is unknown, but it’s estimated to be worth around $100,000. The high value of the ring is due to the quality of the diamond, the rarity of the cut and the designer’s reputation.

Her rings often use opals, tourmalines, and aquamarines, in addition to traditional diamonds. The gemstones are set in delicate yet bold settings that showcase the beauty of the stone.
