This length is popular for adding pendants which will hang over a crew neck. 20" NECKLACE Will fall a few inches below the collarbone and allow a little more breathing room. Perfect for a low, plunging neckline or if you want to wear it over a turtleneck. 22" NECKLACE Falls at or above a low neckline. 24" NECKLACE Falls below any neckline. 36" NECKLACE Common with pearl strands and will hang below the bosom. They can be worn as a single strand or you can double them for an 18 inch necklace.
