Collar: 12"-13"

Collar strands fit snugly around the neck and are best worn with open-neck clothing.

Choker: 14"-16"

Worn around the base of the throat, chokers work well with almost every outfit and any neckline.

Princess : 17"-19"

Resting right at the collarbone, princess strands are one of the most common lengths and incredibly easy to style.

Matinee: 20"-24"

Falling slightly below your collarbone, matinee strands are a perfect match for both easy-going attire and business casual looks.

Opera: 26"-36"

High-necklines and elegant evening wear have never looked better than when paired with an opera strand necklace.

Rope: 37+"

The simple yet extravagant rope strand goes to great lengths to showcase your dazzling style.
