Which necklace for a dress?

Which necklace for a dress? It is not always easy to know which dress goes well with which necklace , especially when many dresses have different types of necklines. It is rarely the dress itself that is decisive for which necklace you should choose, but the neckline of the dress.

It is important to remember that your personal style and what you are comfortable with should always be what you choose. However, it is never wrong to have some good tips along the way when choosing a necklace for your next summer dress, for the wedding dress or for the stylish date dress you have chosen.


Which necklace for which neckline?

If your dress has a V-neckline, it is recommended to choose a necklace with a V-chain. In this way, your bust and cleavage will be highlighted in the absolute best way. If you have a strapless dress, you can advantageously choose a choker or a necklace with a shorter chain, while opera chains are best for dresses with a high neck.


Is there a one size fits all necklace?

Yes and no. Again, it is the personal style that will determine which necklace you think looks good. However, there are adjustable necklaces that enable you to decide for yourself how long the chain should be. This way you can get a very short necklace that fits like a choker, but you can also lengthen the chain and get a rounder necklace, or make it really long and get the nice V shape.

Just as the right length of necklace can highlight, the wrong length can also create imbalance in your outfit. This applies not least when it comes to square necklines on dresses. Here, be careful and go for short V-shaped necklaces, instead of trying to match the neckline with square options in an attempt to create symmetry.
