Necklace Size Guide - FAQ

At KLÉISH, we understand that choosing the right necklace length can be challenging, especially if you're new to buying jewellery or looking for a gift. Our Necklace Size Guide is designed to help you find the perfect necklace that suits your style and needs.

How do I choose the right necklace length?

When selecting a necklace, it’s important to think about the kind of look you want. Do you prefer a subtle, classic style or a longer statement necklace? Also, consider whether you want the necklace to sit close to your neck or hang longer.

For gift purchases, think about whether the recipient prefers something worn close to the neck (like a choker) or a longer piece that showcases their personality.

How do I measure my necklace length?

The best way to figure out which length works for you is to try on different lengths. If you already own necklaces, you can measure them to get an idea of what looks good on you.

What should I choose if I’m buying a gift?

Think about the recipient’s style. If you want the necklace to be worn close to the neck, a shorter length might be best. If they prefer to wear something that stands out and can be seen over their clothing, a longer necklace is a great choice. Also, keep in mind the types of necklines they typically wear.
