Statement necklace to go with this dress!

Off to a wedding. Have stayed off the booze enough that I can now wear the below dress without flesh oozing out of the cutouts 😀 wearing it with rose gold chunky heels.

Anybody have any ideas for a statement necklace to go with it? The one I have in in this pic just isn't statementy enough would like it bigger and more noticeable. I like warm tones and wear gold not silver, and I avoid black. Happy to spend up to £150 for a knockout piece, but equally happy with something cheap and cheerful from Amazon if it looks nice.

Look at Pearls and Swine, gorgeous stuff on there, some pieces a lot more out there than others!

Lovely dress as well!

If you're up for something colourful then it's Tatty Devine all the way. They have some absolutely amazing statements pieces. I think purple shades would look fabulous but it may not be your cup of tea at all!

Thank you, was an absolute bargain in the Nobody's Child sale, got it for about £25 and the quality is amazing!

Thanks the things within budget aren't quite 'grown up' enough for what I'm looking for, there are some amazing bits on there though! Google presented me with this option from Wolf and Moon which I love but not sure I'm brave enough....! Think it would work?

Pondering this as well. I love it but don't know if it will look weird with the dress.

Lovely dress and shoes OP.

Re the necklace I firmly believe if you’re going ‘statement’ or a bit out there with a choice it works 100% if you wear it with confidence (and don’t let it wear you). If you love the fruit necklace (and FWIW I think the fig one will really work. Not
too matchy), then don’t overthink. Go
for it or forever wish you had!

Another option I think could work well would be very oversized single, short
string beads. Will have a look.

Umming and ahhimg over the pomegranate... it's in my shopping basket, but wondering if something else might be better (and cheaper!)

How about this? I think the colours would work against your dress and rose gold shoes.
