The Best Layered Necklace Sets To Buy In 2023

Nail the art of stacking instantly

There's nothing quite like the nonchalance of a layered necklace. When chains and pendants are stacked 'just so', they manage to look both effortless and perfected at the same time.

Layering is trickier to master than you might think. Link length is the most important factor, as necklaces are best showcased when gradated, but textures are also key – each chain needs to be both different and complementary at the same time. And don't even get us started on the art of weaving in this season's favourite beads and pearls.

Luckily, the best jewellery brands are ahead of the game. Missoma, Edge of Ember, By Alona and many more demi-fine labels have specially dedicated sets that do all the hard work for you. So you can focus on pairing your jewellery with the best outfit possible, safe in the knowledge that your pendant, snake chain and T-bar necklaces are suspended together in perfect harmony.

If you're bored of the delicate demi-fine looks that have reigned supreme over the past five years, you'll love Rachel Jackson. The jewellery brand taps into an Indy-Brit aesthetic we've been obsessed with since Kate Moss's heyday (the styling is all messy hair, leopard-print fur and smudged eyeliner). The clue is in the name with this Electric Love & Rock 'n' Rolo necklace set.
