V NECKLINE
The most common of all necklines especially in the Indian clothing celluloid, it helps achieve a leaner, longer and taller silhouette. Although it’s best suggested for petite and people with short necks and broad shoulders, the neckline helps lessen and take away the emphasis from the torso.
With this the best way is to choose neckpieces that are either of the same shape or length. Opt for a pendant shape that mirrors the V-neck to create a tonal and balanced look. Based on your personal style, you can opt for a dainty long chain that will gracefully follow the contours of your dress and draw attention to your décolletage. It just adds a little bit of interest to your outfit and is a great versatile accessory to have in your wardrobe.
SCOOP NECKLINE
A deep round or scoop necklines are probably the most common necklines found in Indian Wear and more so look flattering on everyone. The wide construction helps in drawing attention to the upper half. Hence you can always dare to experiment a bit and choose to go full throttle; opt for more statement chokers and bold neckpieces. A big pendant necklace can also be a perfect add-on for making a dramatic impact.
Alternatively, a long necklace can also be stunning, particularly when layered with other pieces. When it comes to deep necklines, length is the most important factor here. You want a piece of jewelry that falls somewhere between half and three-fourths of the way between the top of your shoulders and the top of your neckline.
A carved choker or wider necklace like a bar necklace will emphasize how deep the neckline is, kind of like an arrow pointing down and will instead make your shoulders look a little broader and your neck a little longer without emphasizing the depth of the neckline or your chest quite as much.
