Find your perfect length

At Isabel Carter, every piece is designed to celebrate individuality. The right necklace length frames your story beautifully — whether you prefer a subtle choker, an everyday classic, or a longer layer for stacking.

Standard Necklace Lengths

• 40cm (16") – Sits just above the collarbone. A delicate, close-to-the-neck look that layers effortlessly with longer chains. 

• 45cm (18") – The classic everyday length and the most popular length. Designed to fall just below the collarbone, flattering for both solo wear and stacking.

• 50cm (20") – A longer length, perfect for creating a relaxed drape or layering with shorter chains.
  
  

Necklace Extenders

All Isabel Carter necklaces include a 5cm extender, giving you the flexibility to adjust your fit and create beautifully personalised stacks.

How to Measure

1. Use a soft measuring tape around your neck where you’d like the necklace to sit.

2. Note the measurement in centimetres or inches.

3. Compare with our guide above to choose the fit that feels most natural to you.
   
   

Styling Notes

• Layering: Mix lengths for depth and dimension. For example, pair a 40cm choker with a 45cm pendant chain.

• Necklines:

  • Open or V-neck → 40cm or 45cm highlights the collarbone.

  • High-neck or turtleneck → 50cm adds elegance over fabric.

• Personalisation: Use your extender to find a balance that complements your mood, outfit, or stack of the day.
