How to Measure for the Perfect Necklace Length (Women's Guide)

Using a String Method:

  • Wrap a piece of string or a soft measuring tape around your neck.
  • Drape it to where you want the necklace to fall naturally.
  • Mark the meeting point, then measure the string with a ruler.

Using an Existing Necklace:

  • Lay your favorite necklace flat and measure from end to end (including the clasp) using a measuring tape or ruler.
