collar necklace 12 1/3"
|
Traditionally, collars
are made up of three or
more strands and lie
snugly on the middle of
the neck. Always seen as
from the Victorian era,
collars go best with
elegant V-neck, boat
neck or off the shoulder
fashions. Today,
collar necklaces are
also defined as large,
voluminous pieces that
surround the neck,
décolletage and shoulder
area (see our
green collection for
examples). |
|
choker
14"
- 16"
|
A choker is perhaps the
most classic and yet
versatile of all the
single strand lengths. A
simple choker can go
with virtually any
outfit from casual to
fancy evening wear, and
just about any neckline
imaginable. |
|
princess length 17" - 19"
|
The princess length
necklace is best suited
for crew and high
necklines. It also
complements low plunging
necklines.
|
|
matinee length 20" - 24"
|
Longer than the choker,
and just a bit shorter
than an opera length,
the matinee necklace is
the right choice for
casual or business
dressing.
|
|
opera
28"
- 34"
|
The opera necklace can
be worn as a single
strand, and is a great
length for high or crew
necklines. When doubled
upon itself, it serves
as a versatile two
strand choker.
|
|
rope
or lariat over 45"
|
Any necklace this length
is for the seriously
fashionable.
Clasps placed in
strategic locations
around the necklace will
enable you to break it
down into multi-strand
necklace and bracelet
combinations.
