How to Measure Your Necklace Size

Choosing the right necklace length can make a big difference in how your jewelry looks and feels. Follow these three simple steps to find a comfortable fit.

1

Measure Your Neck

Wrap a soft measuring tape around your neck, keeping the tape parallel to the floor.

2

Add Extra Length

Add 2 to 4 inches to your neck measurement to allow the necklace chain to fit comfortably.

3

Choosing a Choker

For a choker necklace, use your exact neck measurement without adding extra length.
