# Fist Fight Fashion Brass Knuckle-Inspired Rings Let You Channel Your Inner Gangster By My Way Or the Runway | Published 2009-02-22 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/two-fingered-rings References: [trenddelacreme](http://www.trenddelacreme.com/2009/02/currently-obsessed-with-two-finger.html) 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](http://www.trenddelacreme.com/2009/02/currently-obsessed-with-two-finger.html) 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! ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.0/10 - Popularity: 92% | Activity: 81% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Brass-knuckle Rings:** Designers are creating two-finger rings inspired by brass knuckles, giving an old school look a new twist. - **Street Style Accessory:** Brass-knuckle rings are becoming a growing trend and a statement accessory for people who want to channel their inner tough guy/girl. - **Contemporary Retro:** The resurgence of brass knuckle-inspired rings is a blend of retro design and modern fashion sensibility. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Jewelry:** The jewelry industry has an opportunity to tap into this trend and create affordable yet stylish brass knuckle rings. - **Fashion:** Fashion designers have a chance to add a bit of edge to their collections, as brass-knuckle rings become a regular feature for street style lovers. - **Travel Security:** As the brass knuckle style trend continues to grow, security industries can seize this as an opportunity to develop better detection tools and technology for detecting these types of jewelry accessories. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Bug-Inspired Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/murder-hornet-ring.md) - [Japan-Inspired Wearable Watch Rings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stasto-stand-stones.md) - [Dynamic Bold Statement Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chiyu.md) - [Haute Fashion Digital Watches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/timex-x-mm6-maison-margiela-collection.md) - [Premium Fashion-House Smart Rings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/generation-3.md) - [Gold-Tonal Ring Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crw001g9jr.md) - [Beverage-Aesthetic Playful Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/slush-ring.md) - [Industrial Fidget-Friendly Rings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/titanium-mechanical-ring.md) - [Coffin-Shaped Engagement Rings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coffin-shaped-engagement-rings.md)
