Pics of strapless dresses w/ no necklace?

1 of my BM's doesn't really want to wear a necklace, she'd rather wear big chandelier earrings and a chunky bracelet. Their dresses are strapless. Has anyone had or seen BM's do this? Does it look too 'naked' in the upper chest/ neck area??

Re: Pics of strapless dresses w/ no necklace?

I think strapless dresses are nice without necklaces. If there is a lot of beading on the dresses, it might look better without a necklace. Also, depending on the neckline of the dress, some necklaces (IMO) don't look right. Such as - a straight neckline looks funny, to me, with a pendant - I don't like the look of the chain making a V and the neckline going straight across. But that is just me!

Re: Pics of strapless dresses w/ no necklace?

I personally think no necklace and big earrings are great!! It doesn't take any attention away from the dress. I want my bridesmaids to do that as well as myself.

Re: Pics of strapless dresses w/ no necklace?

Thank you so much ladies!!! What I think I will do since my 1 BM doesn't want a necklace, 2 of them do, and 1 doesn't care, is have the 1 who doesn't care go without a necklace either, that way at least I have 2 and 2. I want at least a LITTLE uniformity LOL.

Re: Pics of strapless dresses w/ no necklace?

Neither I nor my BM's wore necklaces with stapless gowns..pics are in album! I think it looks elegant, plus most of them wore their hair down. My MOH did wear a necklace.

Re: Pics of strapless dresses w/ no necklace?

I actually like the bare neck much better than a necklace - IMO a necklace sometimes takes away from the dress

Re: Pics of strapless dresses w/ no necklace?

I agree with everyone above. I'm all for the bare look. You do not want the necklace to take away from the dress

Re: Pics of strapless dresses w/ no necklace?

were doing this also, but the main reason is because of the neckline of my BM dress ... its more 'square' and I didnt think a necklace would 'go' ... I will be wearing one however, also another way to set me apart

the girls will have these as their jewelz
