The site released its 2018 Wedding Report.

Pinterest has published a list of the top three engagement-ring trends for 2018.

Moissanite gems take the No. 1 spot, showing a 294 percent spike in popularity among users of the popular social media site.

Art deco is in second place, with a 173 percent increase in popularity. Oval stones are third, with 125 percent growth.

The Daily Mail quotes Grant Mobley, director at Pluczenik, saying, “The most recent standout diamond shape has certainly been the oval, and it’s predicted to continue to gain popularity through 2018.”

The ranking is part of Pinterest’s 2018 Wedding Report, which covers not only engagement rings but also areas such as style, wedding food and hair and beauty.

According to Pinterest: “You don’t have to spend your life savings on a champagne fountain at your wedding. Instead, people are going back to basics with au naturale makeup and venues, and focusing on making meaningful memories with loved ones.”
