Men’s necklaces are quite different from women’s necklaces. Unlike women, men will not wear any accessory that can be considered as “costume jewelry”.
Costume jewelry is an accessory that is commonly huge, chunky, and stuffed with gems. These are also worn together with stunning evening gowns. Jewelry for men just doesn’t work that way.
Men’s necklaces are not created to be the centerpiece of a man’s look. They are more designed for the purpose of complimenting a man’s attire and not overpowering them.
