New Trend: Body Harness Necklaces!

What do we think of body harness necklaces, or necklaces that surround your torso as well as your neck? Though these necklaces have been around for some time, designers have gone to new heights in the last few months.There are now designs that range from very classy, to sexy, to casual.

Some of the body harness necklaces use very thin chains and look very similar to traditional necklaces. Others use very thick chains, making much gaudier accessories. Another designs uses leather strips in place of chains, have some kind of medallion or charm in the middle that is the centerpiece of the necklace. Some jewelry makers have move away from the typical body harness design and has made necklaces that act as jewelry boleros.

What should the harnesses be worn with?

Anything that is form-fitting. They look great with body-con dresses and tank tops. They also look good with styles and designs that are simple; the necklace is meant to bring the interest to the ensemble.
Simple necklines such as square, scoop, and possibly off-the shoulder necklines compliment the necklace. I think that common necklines such as vee and plunge can overwhelm the already dramatic nature of the body harness necklaces.

While loose-fitting clothing is okay too, the best policy is to keep the rest of the clothing simple.
