What jewellery suits my wedding dress? This is an important question. Your dress is the key element of your bridal look, but your accessories make the dress. Knowing what looks best with your dress neckline will help you create the perfect style. Follow these 4 simple rules to get it right.
1. High Neckline
A wedding dress with a high neck will look too ‘busy’ if you wear a necklace. The same rule applies to asymmetric, off-one-shoulder and halterneck dresses. Instead, wear a pair of luxurious, eye-catching diamond earrings and balance the look with a luxurious bracelet.

2. Strapless Neckline
The strapless neckline is a perfect backdrop for a big, luxurious necklace. However, a statement piece should always stand alone, so the rest of your jewellery will need to be understated. Simple diamond studs are perfect. For your hands, go for a delicate bracelet or a vintage ring.

3. Bateau Neckline
A bateau neckline is designed to show off your collarbone. To accentuate this area, flaunt a collar or choker style necklace. A strand of short pearls, single or double, is perfect. Choose matching drop or stud earrings and a statement ring to complete the look.

4. Plunging Neckline
A long pendant is a perfect accessory for a neckline that dips into a V. Choose the chain length to match the scoop of the cleavage. A 20 inch (50cm) chain will generally fall below the collarbone. To be sure, use a measuring tape to work out the perfect length for you.
