Despite your discomfort with having a long neck—if you indeed are uncomfortable—rest assured that this is one trait sought in models along with a strong jawline! Dressing for a long neck is so simple too; that’s why modeling agencies seek women with them…because they look good in any neckline!
Only a swan-like neck truly looks well in turtlenecks, yet can be beautiful in cowl neck, square neckline, and scoop tops! Even V-neck shirts and dresses look stunning with a long neck.
Should you likewise have a somewhat protruding collarbone, however, be cautious that your neckline cover its edges. Wearing thicker material that does not cling about your collarbone is best! Layering works well but there is no stage like a solid color top!
Flattering Choices:
Turtlenecks were made for you!
A wide cowl neck, scoop, or square neckline is flattering as long as you've taken care of your skin! Just don't push it too low and make sure you cover your cleavage if you bend over!
For those with that annoying little knot on the back of their neck like me, you can always camouflage it by wearing collared jackets and shirts.
Also, consider whispy curls down the nape of your neck! Very glamorous!
Less Flattering Choices:
If you have a protruding collarbone, ensure that your collar covers the collarbone's edges so that your appearance is seamless.
Don't pile a huge bun at the crown of your head; it can often make the curve of your neck appear to be the other end of a see-saw! Either move the bun higher or lower!
Yes, you can accent with scarves as I often do, but realize this isn't the most flattering look for such a beautiful neck!
