Frequently Asked Questions
What is the most popular necklace length?+
Princess length (43–50 cm / 17–20") is the most popular. It falls just at or below the collarbone and suits virtually all necklines and body types.
What length is a choker necklace?+
A choker typically measures 36–42 cm (14–16.5"). It sits snugly around the throat, just below the neck. Chokers suit V-necks, scoop necks, and off-shoulder tops.
How do I measure my neck for a necklace?+
Wrap a soft tape measure around the base of your neck where a necklace would sit. Hold it snugly (not tight) and note the measurement. Add 1–4 cm depending on how fitted or loose you want the necklace.
What necklace length suits a short neck?+
Longer chains like Matinee (51–60 cm) or Opera (71–86 cm) create an elongating effect. Avoid very tight chokers or collar necklaces as they can make the neck look shorter.
How do I choose a necklace for layering?+
For a classic stack, choose necklaces spaced 5–7 cm apart: e.g. 38 cm Choker + 45 cm Princess + 55 cm Matinee. Use our Layer Builder tool above to visualize your combination.
What is the difference between Matinee and Opera length?+
Matinee (51–60 cm) falls between the collarbone and bust — great for everyday wear. Opera (71–86 cm) falls below the bust and is traditionally worn at formal events or doubled up.
