| Of course, how could I leave out a photo of Diana, Princess of Wales? Here's one for baroque fans: http://www.timboucher.com/journal/wp...iana-14913.jpg (Diana, Princess of Wales) Re length, yes, nothing that would actually choke you! Many people (most?) are nervous during the ceremony, so everything should be as comfortable as possible. Okay, just personal preferences here, but I would be inclined toward something around, say, base of the neck to slightly below the clavicle, perhaps a bit longer for the graduated strand. I do think sometimes the princess length (in its most popular form, the 18 inch strand) can be a touch too long - it really depends on the whole look. But that's just my opinion, and it's hard to say without actually seeing everything together. For example, the choker in the shot above - to me that's the perfect length for that particular necklace and neckline (not to mention the rest of the jewelry!). But for a bride, maybe something a bit smaller, a bit longer, a bit more demure? Personally, I like the graduated strand, or maybe a double strand choker - here is a lovely photo of the look on the cover of the book "Legendary Brides": http://www.amazon.com/gp/reader/0060...12#reader-link I have to say, I'm a little wary of trendy for weddings, but maybe that's because I've seen too many wedding photos from the 1980s! Just kidding! Have fun! ![]() Perle |
