“Ever since 90’s fashion trends made their way back into the fold, easy-to-wear chokers have become our throats’ best friends — and with good reason. Neckpieces come in all shapes and sizes, as exemplified by the Fall 2016 runways of Alexander Wang, Oscar de la Renta, Stella McCartney, Saint Laurent, Loewe, Givenchy and many, many more. They can be rebellious, chic or somewhere in between, as proven by the fashion front-runners who rock them on a nearly daily basis.” Text source: thefashionspot.com
