Image Gang necklace stacking guide
The Layering Lab
Your formula for the perfect necklace stack.
Necklace stacking looks effortless, but there's a formula behind it. Mix lengths, textures and weights, then add one piece that does the talking. Use our guide to build yours.
Where each length sits
The secret to a stack that doesn't tangle or crowd: leave about 2 inches between each layer.
- 16"Collarbone. Sits at the base of the neck. Your base layer.
- 18"Just below the collarbone. The most popular length and the easiest to layer.
- 20"Top of the chest. Great for a second layer with texture.
- 22"Mid chest. Perfect for a pendant or locket to hang and be seen.
- 24"Lower chest. A long drop to finish a bigger stack.
Start with your base
Start with the shortest necklace. Keep it fairly simple: it sits close to the neck and gives your stack its foundation.
