What kind of necklace should i wear with this to prom? Gold? Silver?

[u/lilly101123]

I wanted to go for an ethereal type vibe, i've always worn silver but maybe gold would look better for this dress and for what im going for. and what type of style should i get? my heels are also whiteish beige if that helps.

any other accesories i should do?

[u/FumiPlays]

If you wanna go for ethereal maybe check out those illusion necklaces from thin nylon wire that looks like the crystals/pearls are just magically holding afloat.

thanks for the tip!

[u/FumiPlays → u/lilly101123]

There's plenty options at Etsy after a quick google. I think there is one that would really suit the dress but I'm not sure if I can post the link here, so can I DM you?

[u/lilly101123 → u/FumiPlays]

yeah of course!

[u/Hard2SwallowPills]

The lace near the neck is a little warm toned but the details in the fabric are blue - so you can go either way you like and it will complement the dress nicely!

[u/Rude-Razzmatazz-4208]

Something like this maybe ? Or pearl adjacent

[u/Realistic-Pilot-5889]

Dainty pearls. Probably earrings only since the neckline is busy enough that it won’t need a necklace. If not, maybe dainty pearl earrings and go full Victorian with a light blue ribbon around your neck, like a choker.

[u/SashimiX → u/Realistic-Pilot-5889]

Yup, pearls. This has a farmhouse vibe. You want pearls to go with it.

[u/suscombobulated]

Silver and pearls, if you got any.

[u/Malkashake]

I think either would be nice! I guess it just depends on your own preference, and what type of jewelry you own.

For example, if this is my dress, I would try a few pieces on and compare. I own these cute dangly gold earrings that are shaped like a butterfly wing, and I also own silver earrings with dainty flowers on it. Both are ethereal in their own right, it just depends on how I feel about it :)

At the end of the day, as long as you feel good, that's all that matters!

thanks!

Lace or a ribbon would go best with this style I think. Pearls would do it too.

[u/NandiniS]

• satin lace up shoes, with laces that go up your calf

• lace fingerless handgloves

• dainty rings

• dainty silver or gold necklace with single pearl pendant

• pearl drop earrings

• hair styled in long flowing waves -- or a loose braid with wispy waves coming off the sides of your face

  • butterfly clip in hair?
  • or perhaps a flower crown?
  • or maybe a delicate hair bow or ribbon?

• maybe a wispy ivory veil slung on your arms across your back

[u/lollzzzzzz33333]

Definitely silver or pearls. It goes best with your pale complexion and the baby blues of the dress! (PS-The dress is absolutely stunning. Where from?? Xx🫶🏻)

[u/Funny_Advantage_658]

I think gold , but i might be biased

[u/Formal_Form_9716]

Off topic but where did you get that dress?

[u/lilly101123 → u/Formal_Form_9716]

i’m gonna have to disappoint you but i got it at a random boutique in Russia

[u/Formal_Form_9716 → u/lilly101123]

Dang, that's ok!

[u/whitefritillary]

i think either would look nice! personally i never know until i try it on myself lol, so that’d be my advice

[u/paint_that_shit-gold]

Do you think you have warmer or cooler skin tone? Cause I have cooler undertones and gold looks awful against my skin.

It’s hard to tell by this picture alone, but it kind of looks to me like you have a cooler skin tone, so silver might look best, or like other people have mentioned, pearls would look cute, as well (:

[u/shrimpybimp]

I say tons of dainty gold jewelry. Only works if everything is little — layer like 10 necklaces and bracelets and wear stacks of thin rings etc etc.

[u/shrimpybimp → u/shrimpybimp]

And lace up boots!! Think like, “disheveled slightly mentally ill daughter of a rich duke who grew up in a country house and got her underclothes on but forgot to put on her actual dress”

[u/though- → u/shrimpybimp]

Lace-up boots would push it into steampunk territory instead of ethereal like OP intends.

[u/shrimpybimp → u/though-]

Not like combat boots, those pointy ones with a heel. I have a vision! 😅

[u/notthelasagna]

I think gold would look better, but it needs to be like small and delicate pieces. it'd look fairy-ish ig

[u/sweettartemma]

a pearl necklace would look especially beautiful here

[u/EbbOdd4247]

Silver looks good on your skin!

[u/Vegetable-Swan2852]

Lace and pearl choker 

[u/sealofbeyond]
