How to Choose a Statement Necklace

Neckline first. The neckline decides the shape. A statement necklace for v-neck dress styles should follow the V with a drop or bib; a statement necklace for off-shoulder dress outfits should be a wide collar or choker that fills the open space; crew and high necks suit a long pendant statement worn over the fabric. Our guide on how to pair or match necklaces with necklines covers every shape.

Weight and comfort. Many designs use lightweight brass, copper or plated metal, so even large pieces stay comfortable through an evening.

Metal and skin. For sensitive skin, choose 925 sterling silver or stainless steel. Gold-tone designs are plated, not solid gold, and many 18K gold-plated pieces are anti-tarnish.

Colour. Pick a contrast colour against plain outfits, or a gold or silver tone to match embroidery on ethnic wear.

How to Wear a Statement Necklace

The golden rule of how to wear a statement necklace: let it lead. Keep earrings small, skip other necklaces and choose a plain or open neckline.

• Black dress: a statement necklace for black dress looks – a bright stone collar or crystal bib – stands out instantly.
• Saree: a statement necklace for saree styling works best with plain or lightly bordered silks and georgettes; choose kundan or temple gold-tone for silk.
• Gown and evening wear: a statement necklace for gown looks is usually a sparkling CZ collar or a long crystal drop.
• Office wear: statement necklaces for work should be bold but neat – a single enamel collar over a solid shirt or kurta.
• Jeans and tees: a chunky or colourful bib makes a white tee feel dressed up.
• For girls and teens: a statement necklace for girls in colourful beads or light resin is fun and budget-friendly.

Statement Necklaces for Weddings, Festivals and Occasions

A statement necklace for wedding guest looks – kundan, polki-look or temple designs – pairs beautifully with sarees and lehengas, and statement necklace bridal pieces add drama to reception outfits. Choosing a statement necklace for weddings? Pick gold-tone for haldi and mehendi and sparkling CZ for the sangeet and reception. A festive statement necklace in gold tone shines for Diwali, Navratri and Durga Puja, and traditional collars from our heritage chokers suit temple visits and Onam. For cocktail parties and receptions, our cocktail jewellery edit brings together sparkling necklaces, rings and earrings.

Care

Store each statement necklace flat in its box so stones and enamel do not scratch. Keep perfume and water off plated metal and kundan, and wipe gently after wear.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is a statement necklace?

A statement necklace is a bold, eye-catching piece meant to be the focus of your outfit. It is usually larger, more colourful or more detailed than an everyday chain.

2. Are statement necklaces in style?

Yes – statement necklaces are back in style, especially colourful stone collars, chunky gold-tone chains and festive kundan pieces. They suit both ethnic and western looks.

3. How do you wear a statement necklace?

Choose a simple outfit with an open or plain neckline, keep earrings small and skip other necklaces. Let the necklace be the one focal point.

4. Which statement necklace goes with a black dress?

A colourful stone or crystal collar, or a bold gold-tone bib, stands out beautifully against black. Silver and CZ pieces suit evening events.

5. What necklace should I wear with statement earrings?

Usually none, or a very fine chain. Bold earrings and a bold necklace together compete, so let one piece lead.

6. Can I wear a statement necklace with a saree?

Yes – choose kundan, temple or stone designs with plain or lightly bordered sarees. Boat and deep blouse necklines show the necklace best.

7. Are statement necklaces heavy?

Many use lightweight brass, copper or plated metals, so they are comfortable for a full evening. Check the product weight if you prefer very light pieces.

8. What should I wear with a statement necklace for a wedding?

Pair it with a solid or lightly embroidered saree or lehenga and small studs. Gold-tone kundan suits day functions, and CZ sparkle suits evening ones.

9. Can I wear a statement necklace to work?

Yes – pick a single enamel, stone or metal collar over a plain shirt or kurta. Keep the rest of your jewellery minimal.
