The necklace for wearing with áo dài is an indispensable accessory that helps honor the elegance and nobility of Vietnamese women. Join Jemmia for a quick guide on how to choose the right necklace for each neckline style, such as boat neck, high neck, or round neck, to create a perfect look that attracts every gaze.
With a boat-neck áo dài, you should prioritize medium-length necklaces (42cm - 45cm) with large pendants, elongated shapes, or teardrop designs to create a balanced focal point for the wide neckline.
- Necklace style: V-shaped or long necklaces help "elongate" the neck area, creating a more graceful feeling.
- Material: Natural diamonds or pearls are the optimal choice to catch the light against silk fabric.
You should avoid necklaces that sit too close to the neck (Choker) because they will make the shoulders look broader and take away the softness of the boat neck.

Boat-neck áo dài should be paired with long necklaces and large pendants

Each áo dài neckline corresponds to a distinct necklace style to ensure sophistication and preserve the original silhouette of the outfit.
- High-neck áo dài (Traditional): You should choose long necklaces (draped necklaces) or silver/gold torque necklaces. The pendant should rest at chest level to create a luxurious classic look.
- Round-neck/U-neck áo dài: Suitable for necklaces that gently hug the base of the neck, decorated with diamond pavé or small gemstones to enhance the radiance of the face.
- Heart-shaped neckline áo dài: Prioritize heart-shaped or small round pendants with delicate chains to highlight the elegant opening at the front of the neck.
