Short answer: The most popular diamond chains for women are tennis necklaces, diamond-by-the-yard chains and layered necklaces. At Ivevar a lab grown diamond V-shape tennis necklace starts at $3,118, and a natural diamond by-the-yard necklace is $9,576, at the time of writing.
Popular styles
A tennis necklace is a full line of stones around the neck, the most glamorous option. A by-the-yard chain spaces single stones along a fine chain for a light, everyday look. V-shape and drop designs draw the eye down and flatter open necklines. Layered and station necklaces give sparkle without full coverage.
Length changes the effect: 16 inches sits at the base of the neck, 18 inches just below the collarbone, which suits most necklines.
Natural, lab grown or moissanite
Natural and lab grown diamonds are both real diamond; lab grown costs much less. For lab grown, IGI grades the full 4Cs, while GIA (since October 1, 2025) uses only Premium or Standard. Moissanite is a separate gemstone, not diamond, and is the budget alternative if you like the look.
