How to Measure at Home: Necklace Measurement Guide
Our Three-Step Guide:
-
Measure and Cut: Use a flexible measuring tape or a piece of string to measure the length of the necklace you like. Cut the string to match this length.
-
Try It On: Place the string around your neck to see where it naturally falls. Consider the size and shape of the pendant when determining the best position.
-
Select Your Size: Choose your necklace size based on where you prefer it to sit on your neck (e.g., closer or further from your throat).
Common Necklace Lengths:
-
Choker: 13.8 inches
-
Princess: 17.7 inches
-
Matinee: 21.7 inches
-

Tips:

Neckline Consideration: Different necklines suit different necklace lengths. For example, chokers pair well with high necklines, while opera lengths complement low or wide necklines.

Pendant Size: Larger pendants may look better on longer necklaces, providing balance and elegance.
-
Layering: If you plan to layer necklaces, mix different lengths for a stylish and cohesive look.
