We previously posted spotting Bella’s engagment ring from the trailer. Well, it’s confirmed! MTV’s Hollywood Crush has an exclusive with the Eclipse costume designer Tish Monaghan about the engagement ring and more!
The same costume designer who clothed the “New Moon” cast, Tish Monaghan, returned to duty for the third movie in the saga, “Eclipse.” Lucky for us — that meant she was just a phone call away. Yes, it’s true after the first trailer for “Eclipse” hit the Internet, we were plagued by many probing questions related to the fashions of the main characters. Besides, uh, those wigs (which we got Kristen Stewart herself to talk about), there is one other thing that many of you are dying to know: is that an engagement ring on Bella’s finger in the pics from the meadow?
Don’t worry we got to the bottom of this “rocky” mystery and, in the process, found out a bunch of other fun facts from Tish about the wardrobe that you’ve seen so far in the trailer. So step back inside the “Twilight” closet…
IS THAT AN ENGAGEMENT RING?
YES! “This is an engagement ring on Bella’s finger!” Tish confirmed. “This is something that was made for her by the props department.” In other words: she doesn’t have a whole lotta info to share on it. So, until we are able to investigate further, we should point out that the ring (at least what we can see of it from our extreme zoom-in) looks like he could be quite similar to the domed oval one authorized by author Stephenie Meyer after the “Eclipse” book came out, which is for sale by Infinite Jewelry Co. Check out a 2009 article from the Salt Lake Tribune for more information on the story behind that ring.
If you’re wondering what Kristen and Robert Pattinson are wearing in the above pic, Tish says Kristen is in a cashmere sweater from J Crew and J Brand Jeans. Rob is “probably wearing” a Banana Republic shirt.
IS IT JUST US OR IS EDWARD WAY MORE CASUALLY DRESSED THAN HE WAS IN “NEW MOON”?
“Rob only wore the suit in the last film because of a continuity theme,” the costume designer explained. “He wore it for Bella’s party, and then he never changed. In ‘Eclipse,’ he is back at school, and dressing generally, more casual and more relaxed.”
As seen above from the gray tee shirt (most like from Banana Republic or GAP), the major color palate for Edward and his family, however, has not been changed: “The whole ‘cool’ color theme is being continued with ‘Eclipse’ for the Cullen Clan.”
HOW ABOUT JACOB? DO HIS SHIRTS FINALLY FIT HIM CORRECTLY?
Back when we interviewed Tish about the threads from “New Moon,” she said there was a distinct reason Taylor Lauther always looked to be almost busting out of his shirts with his biceps — “We tailored his t-shirts so they showed off his muscles,” she said at the time.
So now that Jacob “understands his body,” his tops (above he’s in a GAP shirt and Levi jeans) must be a size up right? Nope! Because “only two weeks has passed in time between ‘New Moon’ and ‘Eclipse’” — when Bella went to Italy it was the middle of May, now it’s June — “He wore the same tee shirts,” Tish said.
In the photo above, Kristen is wearing Adriano Goldschmied jeans and what Tish believes to be a Billabong hoodie.
HOLY TANK TOP! IS THAT REALLY BELLA SHOWING SOME SKIN?
When Bella ventures to Florida to visit her mom, Renee (Sarah Clarke) and her boyfriend, it was important for the costume designer to be able to designate warm weather. “We really wanted to show that it was a different climate, so that was the reason [we put Kristen is a tank top],” Tish reported. “Script called for bathing suits, but we opted for more of a coverup, for both her and her on screen mom.”
Going to Banana Republic right now to buy hubs those shirts! LOL! I thought Jacob’s shirts or lack of shirts fit him just fine, thank you very much.
You called it LMC!

FIRST!!!!
ahh i love it xD
The ring is gigantic!!! I love it!!! Good job 'Edward'
I already have my ring from Infinite
plus i ordered the charm bracelet from the same company *smiles* i'm ready for Eclipse now! Let's do this!
heheh
That ring is ridiculous. Its supposed to be his mother's ring, not some enormous piece of costume jewelery. Gah!
That's right woman!
I call that… BULL SH*T!!
*shows everybody her ring*
Edward proposed to me… ME, I tell ya… that… that's *points to Bella's wig*
Is an imposter….!!!
I DEMAND A REFUND!!
No seriously, I'm SUPER STOKED about the engagement ring…
Squeeee… I cant wait I cant wait I cant wait!!
I can't wait to see the details
i like all the clothes they look better…..specially for rob he looks good in those kinds of shirts and the colors….and the ring looks beautiful …cant`t wait to see it properly
I'm all for the v-necked Edward!!
what is the in between B/E in the middle pic??????
I can't wait to see a better pic of the ring. AND I wouldn't have minded if Edward wore a suit all thru Eclipse! *wink*
The engagement ring is freakin' gorgeous!
And the clothes the cast wears in Eclipse are soooo much better than the clothes they wore on Twilight and NM..*whispers* black v-neck sweater..*thud*
What would be nice if that was Rpattison and Kstewart engagement ring.
agree!
Not the way I pictured it, waaaay to big!
it looks like a blanket with a weird print on it. I don't like it. kinda distracting.
Agree with all of you!<3 Love the ring:)
And yes, OMG the v-neck sweater!!!!!!
Cant wait<3<3!!!
I have trouble breathing when I look at your avi too long. JSYK. you could be indirectly responsible for sending me into respiratory failure.
I totally understood that the fact Edward was in a suit during NM was because of continuity…but I'm so glad he's back to casual Edward! His wardrobe for Eclipse is HOT.
Haha, I love this. What a great read
It's fun to get a behind the scenes glimpse at all the production stuff. Excited for Eclipse!
Does anyone have a link to a real pic of the ring? The one SM picked out?
lol I have 'issues' with the costume department.
Sometimes I just have to vent!
And they used a few models for the new Victoria's look.

lol hehehe lol
*rubs eyes and tries again*
your eyesight must be better than mine.
I cant see any detail on that ring to see whether it's 'freakin' gorgeous' or not.
Yeah its HUGE but only cuz its an oval. But Im glad that it looked like what I some-what imagined
Yay!
Id like to see that too!
Yay for Team V-Necked Edward….. Woot Woot
Yay Team V-Necked Edward!!! Woot Woot
Yay Team V-Necked Edward!!! Woot Woot
JMG! *hugs*
Its been too long!
Yay Team V-Necked Edward!!! Woot Woot
*hugs back*
It really has!! I miss our quoting/story telling
*hugs back*
It really has!! I miss our quoting/story telling
it totally confuses me… and reminds me of jacob. oooh, maybe its like a “jake coming in between E/B” thing….
it totally confuses me… and reminds me of jacob. oooh, maybe its like a “jake coming in between E/B” thing….
I want that ring that is beautiful! I hope there will be replica of this ring and at a cheap price:) LOL:)
it reminded me of jake too! I don't know why…..ooo that's an interesting theory that it might be 'jake coming b/w them'. maybe that was the message slade was trying to convey! (=
ok….too much thought on my end. back to pretending to work……
I know that in the book the ring was far from tiny, but is it supposed to be that..big??
*Puzzled*
ha ha ha haha! seriously though I want that ring and I can't wait either!:) woo hoo come on june 30th MOVE IT! LOL:)
It's not too big, it shines beautifully when it catches the light, and it's from Edward. What's not to like?!
the man looks good in anything:) I can't wait! it will be epic!
Yes Yes.. that's an engagement ring, and I bet all people knew about the engagement BEFORE the trailer, so get on with it. We want new clips !! Nooow !! I'm starving here !
May I say how much I love your new avi, I could just stare at it all day…and night!
Ok, down to business! Your memory is better than mine, but we were just on the baseball scene…this could be tricky! Where shall we continue from?
Actually its from the costume department and its nothing like the one described by SM.
No ring from circa 1900 would look like that?!
If it really was like the one Edward gave to Bella I would love it.
I dig the v-neck sweater;) *mind wonders to “happy place”* LOL:) mmmmmmmm:)
*blushes* Why thank you! It is rather yummy, isn't it? (:
Hospital scene is the next time they're alone together? Right? It's up to you, I'm not fussed
I know that it's from the costume department. But it was especially made for Kristen. Edward gives it to Bella in the movie. So I love it. I can't help it, I just do.
wont it be nice to see that red hair rolling around on the ground in the movie?!! i hope we get to see that!
Mmm yummy isn't the word!
:O*smacks JMG* You have to be fussed, this is too important! Ok, hospital scene
*let me sign fades into background* hmm what a beautiful voice that was…*opens eyes* AHH mom, your not Edward! Where is he *looks over to couch* Ahh theres my love! He looks very casual today with his hoodie…I wonder what he would look like with a v-neck t-shirt…*Renee leaves* So what happened, where's James?
Wow! I just released I can see with my eyes practically shut. Oooh there is a penny on the floor, I’ll have to pick that up later. Well would you look at that, sleeping effing beauty is finally up!
We took care of him, and the woman Victoria she ran off. Clearly she wasn’t up for a game of kiss chase!
True I imagined it big, but extremely delicate looking. This looks more chunky and gaudy than I imagined.
Yay! You two started with your quoting/story telling again! You two just crack me up!
Yay! You two started with your quoting/storytelling thing again!

You two just crack me up with that!
We took care of him? You don't need to go all mafia on me, just say you killed him! Oh I 'd love a game of kiss chase right now
I'm alive because of you.
omg carrot top = victoria!
WAIT!! If that's the Engagement ring then this is the end of the movie shot!!!
*faints* *wakes up*
OME&J!!!!!
I love how the ring turned out. Though it is larger than I pictured when reading. But you are talking about Edward. But it was his mom's. Uuumm. I'm wondering if he got his personality from his birth father along with being wiht Carlisle for so long.
*goes into a fantacy* *Edward, Elizabeth Mason, and unknown or untalked about father*
Wonder what he looked like?
No you are in here because of me. The worst part of it was, I didn’t think I was going to be able to stop.
Stop playing kiss chase with Victoria that is, that hair of hers is so hypnotising. But she ran off, so I guess I’m stuck with you. Those tubes going up here nose, such a turn on! *pinches self*Edward, stop it!
Wh-what is he staring at…oh my god they put tubes up my NOSE?! Why! Well it doesn't seem to bother him…he actually looks strangely aroused. You did stop.
Oh me too!!
*winks* Nice team you are on there (:
oohhhhh my god what a ring i hope sow to that they get out some replica because i realy love
(only that wen i was reading the book i imagined the ring more big and i imagined a diamond ) but it's very nice and cool !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
love youuuuuu!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Uh oh, I think she noticed I’m turned on by the tubes. Quick say something that’ll distract her.
Bella I think you’ve got to go to Jacksonville, so I can’t hurt you anymore.
I know, the best
That's not an engagment ring is a neon sign, warning, this girl is taken! ya know, I really hope they don't go with the Anne of Green Gables theme, me no like it.
Oh Jebus I cant wait to see Eclipse!!!!!
You guys need to continue with New Moon, you are too funny,
I know right! Every time I see them doing this I crack up!
I wonder how funny the break up will be? LOL
lmao at bella being an imposter due to her wig..ahahaha
but i am so excited for Eclipse..i can not wait for that scene; and can't wait to see it in detail
Uhm… I never noticed a major tightening in Jacob's shirts.
Bella shows skin? Go sexy Bella!
And Edward more casually dressed in hot Tee's? Oh my Rob. I think I peed a little….
I AM SOO EXCITED !I LOVE EVERYTHING !
Do you know how many of us woulda loved to see stewy wearig a bikini in eclipse…?

So pretty… I want it!!!
Welcome, mae – you now need to get a really cool picture to use as an avi so that everyone will recognize you easier. I'm so happy you decided to join us. Welcome to the madness and HAVE FUN!!!
THUD!!!!!
You, too?
Who isn't? YOWZA!!!!
*runs back to post*
HELL NO!
What..no..are you seri-NO! No…I..how-I don't even know what you're say-how…wha-what are you what are you talking about? You want me to go away…I I I can't…no I can't I can't just leave..I-
That's what I thought at first. I imagined it more delicate. That his mother would not wear something like this. However, it's a movie, and everything has to be larger than life to prove a point. I can deal with it.
YES! That is going to be SWEET!!!!!
LOL Good, going sport! *pats Edward on back*
Out of topic
Who in here has seen, Alice in Wonderland? wasn't it awesome! I'm offically an Alice/Hatter shipper. Michael Sheen as the white rabbit was too cute.
It all comes back to the v-necks, baby.
This is the Edward we know and love.
the blanket between bella and edward reminds me of the wolf tattoo or else some of the oictures bella was looking at when she was researching the cold ones.
Yep, and we welcome him back with open arms…and legs. *looks around* I didn't say that.
NICE!!! LOL
Hubby and I saw it opening weekend. LOVED IT! We are big Burton/Depp fans and it was the perfect movie for them to do. Major Acid Trip. Fun!
I agree…it got old.
Oh, yes you did!! LOL Perfectly understandable.
Welcome, but this isn't about a popularity contest. It's just a place to be yourself and have fun, no one is “popular”.
Oh, I also like the v-necks…can I join the team?
I love your avi!!!
*sigh* Yes I did, and proud of it.
*extends hand* Nice to meet you EAD, I'm Cathy!
I agree!
=P
Some dislike the ring that Infinite designed, but I find it really pretty and unique!! I like it better in silver, though… despite that Edward's momma's was gold =0)
MOVE IT, June!!
It looks exactly like the one that Stephanie Meyer put on her website. So she gave them the idea.
Bwahaha =P
Oh girl… I CANNOT put in words how excited I am about Eclipse!! It's my fave book out of the Saga and I'm just…
SQUEEEEE
Nice to meet you, Cathy. LOL RIP Orange Pants. *extends hand back to Cathy*
you have like a homing device for that ring!
You were first to spot the ring box in the leaked pics and then the ring on her finger.
Although i think it is horrendously large…and well….horrendous?
i was hoping it would be something more like this
http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:XnywU6fpqU_h...
simple
it is WAY too big!
It looks like they melted a brooch to a ring!
terrible!
Yes! it was meant to be big but definitely not chunky!
Look at this one!
I like this one
http://www.adinimages.com/mid/09237-4226.P00.JPG
That would be much better. At least it looks like an engagement ring and much more like one that would have been Edward's mother's.
I don't see any on the website. Are you telling porkies?? LOL
ya me too. Hard to see in the pic, I'm hoping it has an old wold look
“Script called for bathing suits, but we opted for more of a coverup, for both her and her on screen mom.”
WTF MR !!! bathing suits is SO not bellaswan
it's the oddest thing. how can one person cause such a reaction???
I somehow get the feeling that ring won't be a diamond, but a Cullen Crest. I just have this sneaking suspicion…it looks like there's a emblem or something on it.
I was thinking the SAME thing about yours! hope they show her getting this in the movie.
Does anyone else notice in the picture above of Bella & Edward laying in the bed together that the pillow she is holding in between them is a wolf symbol???? It looks like the tattoo that the wolf gang have tattooed on their arms.
Was wondering if anyone else noticed it? :O)
I find that I dislike MR more & more, everyday . . .
Your avi is hilarious!
Yeah, that would be awesome!
Thanks!!!
WOW! I didn't noticed that! Good point! It does!
Or is it the vampire symbol that she found in the book? I cant tell!
lmao, I agree with you 100%!
I was thinking the same thing. Bella Swan will not wear bathing suit unless it's probably really really really warm and there's a pool in front of her. That is, if she's forced to swim.
Pwhoar……….*is speechless*
i know. what's WITH her? She just doesn't seem to get it.
Dammit! Who drugged Ceci again? LMAO
according to mtv is from infinite jewelry.

i didn't like it.

It's supposed to be made of old t-shirts….
Welcome!;]
Now you just need an avi!
Welcome!
Breaking Dawn has Bella in a very hot lingerie
I gotta say that ring is way TOO big. Looks more like a pendant.
so what's up with em & nm.org? I have gotten “error” three days in a row now! Gooooood I have missed so much! Wow.. the engagement ring looks so … edward! Love it..
me too! it's just now that i was able to post comments.
its probably because of darn DISQUS.
You go on her site, go into books and gear, go to shirts, and she has a link to a jewelry site and that's the ring that is picked out.
LOL ditto. at least to placate the hubs for a bit.
HAHA. i was thinking that to.
the engagement ring that i imagined was way to
different from that.
Tehee I noticed that too! I was asking that same question!
Of course you can, the more the merrier and don't forget Kristen looks gorgeous in a v-neck too!!
I also imagined a larger stone with smaller and a much more delicate looking band. But the one from Infinite Jewelry in yellow gold isn't that bad looking.. but it does look a little too big.
I pictured it more delicate, more sentimental than large, but it's pretty nice I would say.
He is what he is. I don't think we can list all the reasons. LOL
Love the avi, btw.
http://www.sltrib.com/themix/ci_13818286
As referred to in the post
I dont know why she said the department had to “make” it, when they could take it from the jeweller?? The real one, gold and diamonds, costs $2000.
His father's name was Anthony, thus why Edward's full name is
Edward Anthony Masen Cullen.
I <3 that name.
and just him in general
*swoon*
The BOOK does.
If Scummit try to tame that down……
fans arent gonna be happy! lol
anybody else having trouble conecting to newmoonmovie.org and eclipsemovie.org, it opens only some posts not all?
oh that one is way better bauble.. nice choice
but we won't really know what Bella's ring looks like until we get a better shot of it.. always the waiting game
lol I'm considering buying the ring.. just the cheap one to add to my Twilight collection.. I think my husband will laugh at me when I tell him I'm ordering it..
I have always loved Alice in Wonderland and I can't wait to go see it!! Hopefully my husband and I will be able to see it on our anniversary this week.. can't wait!!
AHHHHHHH WHY DID YOU SAY THATno no no no no no no spoilers plz plz plz plz plz plz
Yeah, I saw that too. I think it is supposed to look like the tattoo, because the picture is quite telling then; “even though Bella and Edward are lying close to eachother, there is wolf between them.”
PLEASE GO SEE REMEMBER ME!!!!!
SUPPORT ROB! SUPPORT THIS BRILLIANT FILM!!!!!!!!
Please no script talk. We don't want to post spoilers on random threads. Thank you for understanding.
lol that makes alot of sense
The costume designer is wrong about when Bella went to Italy. Bella went to Italy around the 20th of March, not in the middle of May! Had to point that out.

http://www.infinitejewelryco.com/
*throws tantrum*
Dammit!!!
*turns to walk away*
*slowly turns back & gives you the lovely bird*
So is anyone else a little miffed that people don't know how to fact check?? Why is Phil referred to as Renee's, “boyfriend?!” He's her HUSBAND!!!
“When Bella ventures to Florida to visit her mom, Renee (Sarah Clarke) and her boyfriend…”
Seriously, Bella even states that fact in Twilight the movie, for those reporters who are too lazy to read the book. GAH! Sorry, rant over. ; )
yeah, I'm having the same problem. It goes to the main site for me most of the time but when I click to follow the jump to the full story it's like database error etc.
*still chewing*
fank ew – I wuv birbs.
Got milk?
LMAO
Great, when will they sell Bella's engagement ring as Eclipse merchandise?
Yeah. I imagined it as simple yet elegant.
oh I could list them……how much time do you have? lol

Oh, Stewy.
LOL
LMFAO
Ooohhh… what the f*ck ever!!

i just look at that ring as a normal ring not as a wedding ring.
More if this is THE wedding ring, the one i thought in my head for so long.
