Layered necklaces are a persistent trend – the catwalks and fashion mags are full of them and the designers love them.
But layering necklaces is not a new trend, and it has been a part of fashion for centuries. In fact, layering jewellery, including necklaces, was quite popular in ancient civilizations such as the Greeks and Romans.
In ancient Egypt, women wore multiple strands of beads, amulets, and pendants around their necks, which symbolized their social status and wealth. These necklaces were often made of gold, silver, or precious stones and were layered to create a bold statement.
During the Renaissance period, layering necklaces became popular among the nobility, who adorned themselves with intricate and ornate jewellery.
In the 20th century, layering necklaces became a popular trend among bohemian and hippie cultures. The trend gained popularity in the 1980s and 1990s, when layering delicate chains and chokers with pendants became a fashionable statement.
Today, layering necklaces continues to be a popular trend, with many people layering multiple necklaces of varying lengths, textures, and styles to create a unique and personal look.
Layering your necklaces is an easy styling trick to spruce up a plain top or t shirt. They add instant glamour to your outfit, creating an elevated casual look with minimal effort. Layering individual necklaces can be a little tricky however – you have to get the lengths and finishes right, or it just looks like you’ve accidentally put two necklaces on without noticing.
Buying a pre-multi-layered necklace like those we offer takes the hassle away from finding the perfect combo. You’ll have two or three necklaces in one, with a single clasp – making layering a piece of cake! Another benefit of buying a pre-layered necklace is that the individual layers are less likely to get tangled during use.
Typically our styles include a choker layer and slightly longer layer, but sometimes we have layered Y necklaces and we are always adding new combinations. If you’re feeling adventurous, why not add a much shorter or much longer single necklace to your combo for an ultra-layered combo?
When you’re choosing what to wear, consider your neckline. Longer styles work better with boat or plunging necklines – so the jewellery sits either well clear of your clothes or entirely over the top.
At the end of the day, take the necklace off and do the clasp up! If you can, hang them on a hook, or lay them out as much as possible. They are prone to getting tangled and this is far more likely to happen if you leave the clasp open and simply throw them back into your jewellery box.
