It would appear that the “right hand” ring has been replaced with the brass knuckle-inspired two finger ring, a throwback from the days when gangsters and mafia thugs fought with their fists. Trend de la Creme has amassed a nice collection of some rings that are new for Spring 2009, by designers including Maison Martin Margiela, Home Room, Rabid Fox, No Form Design, Boucheron, Lo-Fi, Vane, Delfina Delettrez and Ambiguous Horse.
Let’s just hope you don’t get yours confiscated while going through airport security!
