Necklace Size Guide: Find Your Perfect Fit
Choosing the right necklace length can instantly level up your look. Whether you're layering up or keeping it simple, here's your go-to guide to finding the perfect fit.
Common Necklace Lengths
Choker (14–16")
Hugs your neck just right. Perfect with off-the-shoulder tops, strapless dresses, or when you want a bold, chic vibe.
Princess (17–19")
Sits right at your collarbone — the most popular length for everything from casual tees to cocktail dresses.
Matinee (20–24")
Hits between your collarbone and bust. A great choice for work outfits or casual weekend looks.
Opera (28–36")
Drapes below the bust. Wear it long for some drama or double it up for an effortless layered style.
Rope (36"+)
Endless options! Wrap it, knot it, or layer it for a statement look that’s all your own.
Quick Tips for Styling
-
Chokers flatter longer necks and open necklines.
-
Princess lengths work with almost anything (no thinking required).
-
Longer necklaces elongate your body and pair beautifully with high necklines.
-
Mix different lengths for that cool, stacked effect.
