Would you wear a necklace with this Bridesmaid Dress?

I am trying to figure out the jewlery for my bridesmaids--- and I can't decide if they should wear necklaces with their dresses or not... Would you go no necklace or with one?



It is going to be in peacock blue, they are going to wear nude shoes, and then I was going to look for silver/pearl jewlery. Opinions please!

  • I would just do earrings or a bracelet. I think a necklace would take away from the shoulder detail,

  • I would let them wear whatever jewelry they choose. No one will be able to see such a small detail as jewelry and matching jewelry when the dresses are already the same makes me think Stepford Wives.

    I agree. But if you are deadset on getting the girls jewelry, I'd skip the necklace and go with earrings and a bracelet.
  • I agree with earrings and a bracelet as well.

    If you do choose a necklace,I would do something delicate.

  • I would skip the necklace and do earrings.
  • I'd avoid a necklace personally.

  • My BMs also have one shoulder dresses, and I've asked them to not wear necklaces.  They are own their own to pick their other jewelry. I think dangly earrings and a bracelet on the arm that the one-shoulder is not on would look nice.

  • Agreed with the above - go with earrings and/or bracelet. A necklace could work if a very basic/small one...but I think the earrings/bracelet combo would look better.

  • if you really want them to wear a necklace go with something silver with a longer chain. that way it will rest just above the neck line of the dress but not way up by the shoulder detail of the dress.
  • nix the necklace...I agree with PPs to go with earrings and a bracelet...even at earrings I would go with something simple, because ONE of them will be in competition with the strap. The bracelet idea is great - balances it out if it is worn on the wrist opposite the strap - and if it's a larger style without being HUGE, that's even better!

  • Skip the necklace because it will compete with the shoulder detail.  I would do earrings and a bracelet.  Good luck!
