How to Choose a Necklace That’s Just Right for You

Diamond tennis necklace

The necklace – the piece that completes every look

A necklace is one of the most popular and beloved pieces of jewelry. It can turn a simple top into a stunning look, or add the finishing touch to an evening dress. But how do you choose the right necklace?

Length changes everything

Choker (35–40 cm) – sits close to the neck, suits open necklines and gives a modern, elegant look. Perfect for special occasions and everyday wear alike.

Princess (45–50 cm) – the most classic and popular length. It falls just below the collarbone and suits almost any neckline and outfit.

Matinee (55–60 cm) – a medium-length necklace that falls above the bust. Especially suited to business attire and layering with shorter necklaces.

Opera (70–85 cm) – a long, dramatic necklace, perfect for evening events and an elegant, striking look.

Matching your face shape

Round face – opt for longer necklaces that create an illusion of length. A V-shaped pendant is especially flattering.

Oval face – almost any length and style works. This is the “easiest” face shape to match with jewelry.

Square face – round, soft necklaces soften the lines of the face. A round choker or a necklace with a round pendant is an excellent choice.

Matching your neckline

Round neckline – a princess-length necklace or a pendant. V-neck – a necklace with a V-shaped pendant that follows the neckline. Boat neck – a choker or a short necklace.
