Necklace lengths are good to know for when you are ordering online and not able to try it on. The following sizes are the most common lengths and where they fall on the average female body.
14” – 16“ – CHOKER
This length is referred to as the “Choker Necklace” length and typically sits at the base of the neck and is perhaps the most classic and yet versatile of all lengths.
17” – 18 “ – PRINCESS
The “Princess” length is one the most popular lengths today. It is intended to sit at the collarbone and is made to be a versatile length. It is well suited with a variety of fashions including V-neck, Scoop neck and Button-up styles.
20” – 24” – MATINEE
The “Matinee” length usually sits well below the average neckline. This makes a popular choice as it can be used for casual, business or formal occasions.
The Matinee length works well when layering necklaces with a shorter Choker or Princess length sitting above it.
36” – OPERA
The “Opera” length is also very suitable for layering and it can also be wrapped double. This versatile length may also be tied in a knot for a charming modern look reminiscent of the height of 1920s flapper fashion!
40” – ROPE
A necklace any longer than Opera (36”) is typically considered a “Rope”. Can be worn a one long necklace, or two or three shorter necklaces when wrapped round the neck. The Rope can also be knotted and slung over the shoulder to accentuate the beauty of a backless dress.
