Are You Ready For Chokers?

May 12, 2011  9:48 am

It’s time to put away those dangling pendants and dainty chains. For Fall, designers are hot under their collars for fierce, face-framing choker necklaces. Whether they came with door knocker-sized ornaments like Lanvin’s, Wilma Flintstone-esque pebbled jewels à la Bottega Veneta, or in fetish-y leather as they did at Emanuel Ungaro, it was all about achieving a snug fit that sits atop the collarbone. And chokers aren’t just for the runways. Street-style fixture Taylor Tomasi Hill repped a Masai-inspired number during fashion week, and we spied our industry crush Virginie Mouzat wearing her gold necklet in Moscow.

1. I like it very much. In my parts people are starting to wear chokers, because I make them for half a year. I love to do it, because every one is different. If you are interested, visit aferanaszyjnikowa.blogspot.com

2. I like chokers too. But sometimes it looks a little bit rude.May be it hangs on of image.

3. ok. this page accepts me, but Dior, puke this season and perhaps others, doesnt.
   anyway chokers look good -but feel bad in summer.

4. I won’t be sporting the ones that fit snug around the neck - mainly b/c my neck is too short… As it is with all trends, not every single one is meant to be followed blindly!

5. I love this look. Its edgy and I will definetely be wearing this look this fall. I wouldn’t suggest this for everyone, probably those who only have slender necks but if you’re bold, go for it.

6. this is not a new trend, and it’s only been brought back by the reinterest of the royal family as Diana always wore chokers, i will not be following this rehashed idea
