Typical Necklace Lengths

Choker length, 16 inches. choker falls perfectly around the base of the neck. If you are very slim, a 16-inch necklace might hang to your collarbone.

Princess length, 18 inches, will fall at the collarbone. For plus size person with a larger neck size, this is best suited for crew and high necklines.

Matinee length, 20 inches, will fall past the collarbone just above a modest scoop neckline. This necklace is the right choice for casual or business dress.

A handy list to choosing necklaces for clothing necklines

Different necklines look better with certain necklace styles.

Turtle necks – best with longer necklaces

Crew necks – best with short necklaces such as necklace ‘collar’ or bib styles

Scoop necks – fill in the space with multiple strands of beads or larger scale pendants

Strapless – look great with chokers or short pendants, leaving your lovely decolletage bare

Square necks – look for pendants with an angular finish to harmonize with the angular neckline

Asymmetric necklines – look for necklaces that aren’t symmetrical, instead a necklace that has it’s own asymmetry can work, alternatively a long string of different sized and shaped beads can work well.

Halter necks – these create a narrow V neck – so look for a narrow pendant with a sharper end

V neck – ideally a necklace that matches the shape of the V – depending if it’s a wider or narrower V neck.

Collared shirt (button down) – there isn’t much space for anything too wide, so a choker style works if you have a long neck, if not a slimmer pendant that sits above the last open button.

Boat neck – a long string or two of beads is ideal for this neckline.

Cowl neck – this neckline is already detailed and has volume, so either a short and small pendant or a pair of feature earrings instead of a necklace.

Sweetheart – a curved necklace that has width that will balance the open decolletage of this neckline.

However, the following chart will help you to accurately determine how large a piece of jewelry or a gemstone truly is, so you will better understand the dimensions of the piece you are looking to purchase:

1mm = 1/32"

2mm = 1/16"

3mm = 3/32"

4mm = 1/8"

5mm = 3/16"

6mm = Just under 1/4"

7mm = Just over 1/4"

8mm = 5/16"

9mm = Just under 3/8"

10mm = Just over 3/8"

11mm = 7/16"

12mm = Just under 1/2"
