Best Necklaces for Different Necklines for Women

Choosing the perfect necklace to complement your neckline is essential for creating a stylish and harmonious look. Whether you're dressing for a casual day out or a formal event, understanding how different necklines interact with various necklace styles is key to achieving a polished and harmonious look. So in this blogpost, we will talk about the best necklaces for different necklines.

V-Neckline

V-necklines are flattering as they elongate the neck and draw attention to the face. Choose necklaces that follow the V-shape, but that are not longer than the neckline itself. Pendant necklaces are perfect for this. You can choose elegant, minimalistic pendants for a formal attire, like a Diamond Initial Pendant. For casual outfits, you can opt for larger pieces, like our Diamond-Cut Baby Angel Pendant Necklace. Long-shaped pendants like this look especially great with a V-neck outfit. Or, you can choose pendant necklaces that are guaranteed to complement any outfit regardless of occasion, like our Heart Initial Pendant Necklace. Pendant necklaces like this are generally the best choice, as you can mix and match with different outfits.

Round Neckline

A round neckline is classic and versatile, sitting close to the base of the neck. It’s one of the most preferred necklines, and one of the easiest to work with. For this neckline, you can choose minimalistic chains or statement necklaces, depending on the look you are after. If, for example, you are wearing a t-shirt with a motif, a statement necklace or a bold pendant may overdo it. Minimalistic gold chains, like our classic Miami Curb Chain, work better with t-shirts with motifs, adding a touch of luxury without overdoing it. They also work great with plain t-shirts for those who like to keep it simple and elegant. Choose statement necklaces or bold pendants if it is a plain t-shirt, and you want to add a touch of boldness to your outfit. You can do this with a Byzantine Chain for an elevated look, or a Puffed Heart Shape Link Necklace for a more casual, playful look.

Strapless Neckline

The strapless neckline is daring and glamorous, exposing the shoulders and collarbone. It’s ideal for showcasing statement necklaces that draw attention to the upper body. A short chain complements the strapless neckline the best. Opt for a short gold chain, like Herringbone Chain or Valentino Link Chain for an elegant and sophisticated look. For a daring look, opt for chunky, bold gold chains, like our CZ Butterfly Rlx Railroad Chain Necklace.

Turtleneck Neckline

The turtleneck neckline is cozy and chic, covering most of the neck. This neckline calls for necklaces that complement its high coverage without overwhelming it. Long pendant necklaces add visual interest and draw attention downwards. Choose a pendant with a bold design or a pop of color to contrast with the turtleneck. Layered necklaces also work great with turtlenecks, especially if they are delicate and understated. There are no rules when it comes to layered necklaces, and you can mix and match any gold chain you like, whether it’s a Herringbone Chain or a Rope Chain. Opt for layered chains with minimalistic pendants to maintain a balanced look. To learn more, take a look at our blog on The Art of Layering: Tips for Styling Your Jewelry.

Halter Neckline

Halter necklines are characterized by straps that wrap around the neck, often leaving the shoulders bare. This can be a difficult look to work with, especially if your neckline is covered, as the neckline itself tends to be the star. Since the neckline already draws attention to the shoulders and neck, consider skipping a necklace. You can instead opt for earrings and bracelets to complement your outfit. But if your halter neckline leaves your neck open, then opt for short gold chains, like our Hearts & Kisses Stampato Necklace, to accentuate the elegant neckline without overwhelming it.
