HOW TO MEASURE THE RIGHT NECKLACE SIZE

First, measure the circumference of your neck with a tape measure. You want to make sure that the necklace will fit comfortably around your neck without being too tight or too loose. Once you have this measurement, use it to determine which size in the chart is best for you. The most popular necklace lengths are 16” (41cm), 18” (46cm), 20” (51cm) and 22" (56cm). These lengths are great for layering and for the classic look.

NECKLACE SIZES

  • 14” ‑ 16” = The 14 to 16-inch necklace, also known as a choker, sits tightly around the neck. This is an excellent choice for those who want to draw attention to their neckline or wear a pendant close to the heart.
  • 18” = The 18-inch necklace, or princess length, is the most common and versatile length. It sits elegantly on the collarbone, making it an ideal choice for showcasing pendants or charms.
  • 20” = The 20-inch necklace, often referred to as a matinee length, falls just below the collarbone. It's perfect for those who prefer a slightly longer style that can be worn over or beneath clothing.
  • 22” = The 22-inch opera-length necklace is a versatile accessory that adds drama and elegance to any outfit. It can be worn as a single strand or doubled up for a layered look, making it suitable for both formal occasions and casual wear.
