Q:tee Tip
If you're unsure, choose a classic length between 43 and 45 cm: it suits most outfits and is easy to wear daily.
For a more visible style or to elongate your silhouette, opt for a matinee or lariat necklace. Long necklaces are particularly elegant with flowing dresses, simple blouses, and summer outfits.
