How to choose the right necklace length?
Whether a necklace is for yourself or others, the length of the necklace is an important issue that consumers need to consider. It determines the weight, price and wearing style of the necklace. How to choose the right necklace length?
First, let’s first understand the classification of necklace length:
16 inches (40cm): the length is equivalent to the collar
18 inches (46cm): droop to the position close to the collarbone
20 inches (50cm): sag to a point below the collarbone
22 inches (55cm): close to the neckline
24 inches (60cm): droop to the position below the neckline
30 inches (76cm): below the chest
Under normal circumstances, a 16-inch (40cm) necklace can be perfectly wrapped around the base of the neck like a collar. For women with petite stature, they will be slightly closer to the collarbone. Most necklaces have this length size. It can be well matched with almost all clothing, filling the space on the collar. However, if you have a lot of small meat on the neck, then look down and choose the following one is more appropriate.
The 18-inch (46cm) necklace is the most popular and common size among women’s models, and its sag point is just below the throat. The necklace of this length is best matched with a pendant with a sense of design, which can make up for the space of the deep V neckline and make it have a clear contrast with the clothing. For taller women, wearing a necklace of this size will have a similar effect as a collar.
When you encounter a necklace of this size, it can be very worry-free. It does not matter if it is fat or thin. Longer and shorter are also good for remodeling. There is only one thing you have to do: choose a good-looking one.
The 20-inch (50cm) necklace hangs slightly below the collarbone, giving people a more comfortable “breathing space”. Girls who are most afraid of “wrapped necks” are most suitable for 20 inches. Many women prefer necklaces of this length and wear them with business or casual clothes. For high lapel sweaters and pullovers, this length is also a good choice. Especially when you encounter a deep V neckline, don’t be too sexy.
24 inches (60cm) is located just below the neckline, which can be called a “decisive” size. You can use it to complete the most needed embellishment at the neckline. Let the “heart” no longer be “bald”, not only modify the neck line, but also add color decoration to the clothes, turning into a magic weapon for attracting eyes.
The 30-inch (76cm) necklace is approximately below the chest. The necklace of this length is not limited to sweater chains and other things, but can perfectly match other necklaces of all lengths to complete a wonderful layered wear. A 30-inch necklace can always hold all styles of dressing easily, even if you just think that today’s top or dress is too monotonous, you can also choose one to put on the neck and fold it. A 30-inch necklace can easily carry all styles, even if you just think your top or skirt is too monotonous today.
