Necklace layering is an intricate art. Layering necklaces have emerged as a popular trend in the world of fashion, allowing individuals to express their personal style and creativity. Designer shows the world over blended different necklace styles to create totally unique works of jewellery art. It's all about finding the right balance of textures, stones, metals, colours, and lengths to create effortlessly unique and eye catching pieces.
Layering necklaces dates back to century old traditions, with evidence of this practice found in ancient civilizations. From the Egyptian pharaohs to the Roman emperors, layering necklaces was a way to showcase wealth, status, and power. These ornate pieces symbolized opulence, sophistication, and social standing. In recent years, the layered necklace trend has made a comeback in the world of fashion. Influencers and fashionistas have embraced this style, incorporating different layered necklaces into their everyday looks. This trend allows individuals to add dimension, texture, and a touch of personal style to their outfits.
The Layering Game
Layering is by far the most interesting way to change the look but the most difficult one to master. The layered look usually consists of two to three necklaces of varying lengths depending on the kind of necklaces you want to create the look with and of course the occasion. According to varying lengths the necklaces can be segregated as the following: Collar, Choker, Princess, Matinee, Opera and Lariat.
While the everyday casual look can be achieved with three delicate neckpieces with chains of varying lengths having small accent stones or charms or a single layered delicate neckpiece. It's important to consider the lengths, textures, and colours to create a cohesive and harmonious look.
Keeping up with the trend, seen here is the ‘Two Tiered Necklace’. Styled impeccably with a modern sillhouette. The stylish layered piece amps up your style quotient instantly.
The Festive look can be achieved by layering a Choker with a longer necklace depending on the length you want to achieve. Each of the necklaces needs to be at least two inches apart so that each necklace gets emphasis and shines through.
Take a cue from this look on how to nail the layering game. The model is wearing the ‘Afrin Choker’, the ‘Nilopher Necklace’, and the ‘Maharani Necklace’ respectively. While she has layered three similar toned neckpieces you can be experimental using different coloured stones, mixing and matching various lengths and teaming heavy pieces with slightly subtle ones. Its all a matter of self expression.
While you can be experimental with the lengths of the neckpieces one should keep certain other key points in mind. Embrace the versatility of layered necklaces by mixing metals. When layering necklaces, consider the neckline and style of your outfit. V-necklines pair well with layered necklaces, as the necklaces can follow the shape of the neckline for a flattering look. High necklines may benefit from longer, dainty necklaces, while scoop necklines can accommodate multiple shorter necklaces. Add personalised pendants and charms to the look these additions can hold sentimental value or represent specific interests, adding a unique touch to your overall look.
