How To style layered necklaces with kurtas

Layered necklaces look best when the neckline gives them room to shine. A deep V or round neck works wonders for longer strands, while high necks pair beautifully with mid-length pieces. For heavily embroidered kurtas, stick to minimal layered designs to avoid visual clutter. And remember, don't over-accessorise. Let the necklace be the star, and keep earrings smaller for balance.

Festive dressing doesn't always require an elaborate lehenga or sherwani. Sometimes, a plain kurta paired with the right layered necklace can command just as much attention, if not more. With prices starting as low as ₹330, there's never been a better time to add a little sparkle, texture, and personality to your festive wardrobe. Shop now on Myntra
