The Basics of Necklace Layering

Layering necklaces involves combining multiple necklaces of varying lengths, textures and styles to create a stylish stack that works with your outfit. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you master the art of layering.

1. Choose a focal point

Begin by selecting a focal point necklace. This piece will serve as the anchor for your layered look. Our customisable initial necklaces, available in a variety of styles and metals, are perfect for this. Choose your initial or one that holds a special meaning to you.

2. Varying lengths and textures

To create dimension, select necklaces of different lengths and textures. Mix delicate chains with chunkier pieces for an on-trend contrast. You can even add some with crystals or stones if you want to mix it up. if you’re looking for inspiration our pendant necklaces are great for layering.

Achieving Balance

Layering necklaces is all about balance. Mix and match different styles, weights and finishes of necklace to get the right stack. Start with your focal point necklace and layer shorter and longer pieces around it. Avoid overcrowding the space and allow each necklace to shine individually and collectively.

Neckline Considerations

Keep your outfit's neckline in mind when layering necklaces. Scoop necks, V-necks and shirts provide great canvases for layered necklaces. Adjust the lengths accordingly to complement the neckline and to elevate your finished look.
