Chain & Necklace Size Guide
How should a line necklace fit?
A line necklace is designed to grace the base of your neck with elegance, measuring between 14 and 16 inches. This length ensures it sits beautifully above necklines such as crew necks, boat necks, and V-necks. For a style that effortlessly drapes below the neckline, consider an 18-inch piece. All necklines are different, so aim to have the line necklace fall above or slightly below the collarbone.
How to keep line necklaces from flipping over?
Ensuring your line necklace stays perfectly in place can be effortless with these tips:
- Center the clasp at the back and lay the necklace flat on a surface before wearing to ensure a balanced fit.
- Tailor the size of the line necklace to the wearer for a custom look.
- Soldering the necklace at key points can help stabilize the settings and add a touch of weight
- Avoid pairing necklaces of similar lengths together to keep them from tangling.
With these simple steps, your line necklace will sit beautifully and stay put all day or night long.
Do all line necklaces flip?
Not all line necklaces flip. Heavier line necklaces tend to stay in place more securely than lighter ones. The specific design, construction, and the wearer’s collarbone all play a role in how the necklace sits. Graduated line necklaces, featuring larger diamonds at the center, offer additional weight at the front, which significantly reduces flipping.
