The Ultimate Guide to Matching Necklaces and Necklines

Knowing the cut of your dress is step one. Let’s match the most popular neckline styles with the ideal necklace types.

Strapless Neckline

Strapless dresses offer a clean canvas around the collarbone and shoulders.

Best Necklace Pairing:

• Chokers
• Short pendants
• Layered chains that sit close to the neck

Sweetheart Neckline

Curved and romantic, this neckline draws attention to the décolletage.

Best Necklace Pairing:

• Heart-shaped pendants
• Curved diamond necklaces
• Single-stone solitaire pieces

Pair AYAANI’s subtly curved diamond design with a sweetheart neckline for bridal vibes or romantic dinners.

V-Neck Dress

V-necks call for symmetry and length in your jewellery.

Best Necklace Pairing:

• Drop pendants
• V-shaped or triangular necklaces
• Layered chains following the V shape

AYAANI’s drop-style Lab Grown Diamond Necklace follows the neckline beautifully, creating a balanced and elongated silhouette.

Off-Shoulder Neckline

This silhouette leaves shoulders bare and elegant.
