“Maybe we can move away from having to wear an engagement ring — introduce engagement rings, engagement earrings, engagement bracelets, and to add a little punkiness to it, a little irony, I wanted to introduce the engagement nose ring,” Delettrez told Vogue.com.

While it’s difficult to believe the idea of a septum engagement ring will actually catch on, it’s definitely a fun alternative for those who don’t want to follow the pack. And if diamonds aren’t your thing? There are a few other options in the designer’s new collection, too.

Delettrez’s designs don’t require a piercing either, so they don’t take as much of a commitment as, say, a marriage.
