Fashion necklaces for women: getting the length right

A short necklace sits close to the neck and works with an open collar. Pieces worn low on the chest lengthen the line of a dress or a long top. Multi-strand designs fill the gap in between, and they can carry an outfit on their own; that is where a statement necklace earns its keep. Check the overall length first: it determines exactly where the necklace will sit. Some chains are adjustable, running from 36 cm to 44 cm.

Warm gold or cool silver

A gold-tone finish lifts warm shades such as red, burgundy and mustard. Silver tones look sharper against grey, blue or off-white. There are copper-tone pieces too, and they pair nicely with autumn colours.

Pendants, beads and a bit of character

Figurative pendant shapes

Cats, cherries, clovers, feathers and origami-style birds all appear in this selection. A figurative pendant adds a playful note to a plain jumper, while geometric shapes keep things graphic.

Beaded and multi-strand colour

Rows of multicoloured beads and small discs run from royal blue to mustard. Against black or cream, those colours stand out straight away. No styling needed.

Where to go next

Longer styles sit differently on the chest, and the pieces that work over knitwear have a page of their own.

For a coordinated look, buy a necklace and earrings together and save yourself the job of matching them.
