As personalised jewellery continues to be a must-have accessory, Google searches for “initial rings” have soared in the UK, making it a breakout trend for the upcoming spring and summer seasons.
According to research by jewellery brand PRYA, searches for “initial ring silver”, “custom initial ring” and “birthstone ring” increased by a huge 5,000% in the past 30 days. Style experts at PRYA have now predicted that initial rings will be a staple accessory this year, with stacking and styling taking centre stage.
At the forefront of the trend: Molly-Mae Hague
Known for her enviable jewellery collection, Molly-Mae Hague recently showcased a selection of rings in an Instagram post, including a diamond-studded ‘B’ ring – a sentimental tribute to her daughter, Bambi.
Arwa Hassan, in-house style director at PRYA, notes that Molly Mae’s choice reflects a wider surge in popularity of personalised and initial jewellery. Celebrities like Hailey Bieber have also embraced the trend, famously sporting a “B” and “JBB” bubble necklace and other customised pieces dedicated to her family.
“Initial jewellery has become a meaningful way to celebrate personal connections”, says Arwa. “Whether it’s a tribute to a child, partner or a loved one, it adds a touch that’s both stylish and sentimental. We are seeing more and more people gravitate towards these timeless, customisable pieces. At PRYA, initial jewellery has seen a 150% year-on-year growth, solidifying its status as one of the biggest trends in personal accessories.”

Stacked rings are in for 2025
According to research by PRYA, Google searches for “how to stack rings” increased 80% in the past 30 days in the UK. Stackable rings offer versatility, personalisation, and the ability to create a unique look – but getting the balance right is key. Arwa shares expert tips on how to perfect the stacked ring trend:
“A well-curated ring stack shows attention to detail and creates a polished appearance. By mixing and matching different rings, you can express your personality and make a statement without saying a word. Start with one or two basic gold or silver bands and build from there. Place larger rings on the middle or index finger, wear smaller rings on the upper part of your fingers, and arrange rings differently on both hands. Adding a gemstone or birthstone can elevate the stack and bring a personalised touch.
“Building around a specific theme can tie your look together, but don’t forget to experiment and have fun. Avoid wearing rings on every single finger and placing them in the exact same position, as this can look overcrowded.”
Seven simple ways to stack your rings like a pro
- Mix styles – Combine minimalist bands, statement rings, delicate designs, and quirky shapes to create a unique stack.
- Mix metals – Strategically pairing gold and silver adds visual interest. Alternatively, sticking to one metal tone can create a more cohesive look.
- Consider finger placement – Balance your stack by placing a statement ring on your middle finger, with delicate bands on your index and ring fingers.
- Play with sizes – Mixing different ring widths and sizes creates contrast and variation for a visually appealing look.
- Leave some space – Avoid overcrowding; leaving gaps allows each ring to stand out individually.
- Stack with gemstones – Incorporate birthstones or gemstone rings for a pop of colour and added personality.
- Balance is key – If one finger features a bold gemstone ring, keep adjacent fingers more understated to maintain a harmonious look.
