How to Match the Perfect Necklace to Complete Your Outfit: The Final Touch That Makes All the Difference

Every outfit tells a story, but it’s the jewelry that gives it a voice.
The right necklace can transform a simple look into an icon of elegance, enhance a dress’s neckline, or subtly highlight a detail of your clothing. Choosing it isn’t just a matter of aesthetics: it’s a gesture that reflects personality and taste.

Tavanti jewels are crafted in 18 kt gold and enriched with natural stones. They are born from the creativity of Fabrizio Falcinelli, who combines his artistic flair with the Tuscan goldsmithing tradition and a passion for Made in Italy. Each creation is designed to harmonize with different outfits, fabrics, and colors, becoming a distinctive style signature.

In this guide, you’ll discover how to choose the perfect necklace based on neckline, fabric, colors, and occasion. From minimal lines to bold designs, we’ll explore the Tavanti collections to find the piece that best expresses who you are.

Decolletage: The Art of Matching Necklaces to Necklines

Each type of neckline requires the right necklace. Here’s how to enhance them to their fullest:

Round neckline – Perfect harmony

Ideal with short necklaces or chokers that follow the shape of the neckline. Necklaces with round pendants or delicate chains create a visually balanced effect. Try the Essenza Necklace with diamond pavé or the Unica Chocker with turquoise and diamonds for a luminous, harmonious touch.

V-neck and sweetheart neckline – Enhancing the Vertical Line

Perfect with necklaces that follow the natural line of the décolleté. Drop pendants or elongated shapes help to lengthen the figure. Ideal choices include the Bonbon Triangle Necklace or pieces from the Secret Collection.

Boat neck and bandeau – A sophisticated statement

These wide and distinctive necklines allow you to dare more. Cascading, multi-strand, or statement necklaces add sophistication and originality. Explore the Legami, Giove, and Unica collections to find the perfect accessories.

High neckline – The elegance of simplicity

With turtlenecks or high-neck tops, opt for long necklaces that create contrast with the fabric. Discover the Giove Stars Pendant Necklace with pendant for a bold and sophisticated effect, or choose a long necklace from our selection.

Color & Fabric: The Perfect Contrast Between Dress and Necklace

Balancing the colors of your jewelry with your outfit is essential: each natural or precious stone pairs best with specific tones.

Dark-toned outfits – The brilliance of gold and natural stones

Rich, deep colors can beautifully be enhanced by gold and precious stones. The contrast creates elegance and refinement. The necklaces from the Giove Collection with diamond pavé are perfect for brightening your look.

Light-toned outfits – The soft elegance of pastel colors

With light shades, rose gold and pastel stones bring a delicate elegance. Try the Giove Necklace with mother-of-pearl and diamonds or the Bonbon Square Necklace with turquoise and diamonds.

Patterned fabrics – The beauty of simplicity

When your dress is the star with bold textures or prints, the necklace should complement without overpowering. The Secret Necklace with a square of diamonds is ideal in this case as it is a discreet, sophisticated touch of light capable to add an overall sense of grace and a nice sparkle to your look.

Choosing the Right Necklace Based on the Occasion

Depending on the event or moment, different necklaces can be more or less appropriate: more striking and elegant for special occasions, more discreet ones, like simple pendants, for everyday or informal occasions. 

Casual looks – Subtle elegance

For everyday wear, we recommend light, minimal necklaces where 18 kt gold is enhanced by colorful charms made with natural stones and diamond pavé. Explore the Essenza Collection: the simplicity of a circle, perfect for completing your daily look with elegance.

Ceremonies and special events – Show-stopping jewelry

In these moments, you can go bold and bright, making the necklace the centerpiece. Gold, precious stones, and unique details make all the difference. Discover our Elegant Look selection for your special moments.

The Finishing Touch: Extra Tips to Match the Right Necklace to Your Look

Personality – Choose necklaces that speak about you

Whether you’re romantic or lively, refined or distinct, there’s always a piece of jewelry that best represents you:

Precious and natural stones – The elegance of color

Precious and natural stones, chosen either to harmonize with your outfit or to create bold contrast, add prestige and uniqueness. Rubies, emeralds, sapphires, or diamonds like those in the Legami Collection, each of these natural stones can tell something about you, express your color, or reflect your inner light.

Natural stones carry deep meanings, different energies, and a variety of tones capable of captivating, inspiring, and illuminating. The key is knowing yourself and choosing consciously which ones to pair with your outfit.
