New here. Adding mine! I have the open heart pendant large on a 30 inch DBY chain. My parents bought it for me.
My parents bought me the the Medium sized open heart necklace on the 18" chain. I swapped out the 16 felt like it was to short I like longer chains!
*sigh*
I had one... the small size in rose gold... but I returned it because it looked a bit "off" on me.
I'm tempted to purchase one in yellow gold and see if that makes a difference?
The problem could have been the 16" chain, but they didn't have an 18" rose gold chain anywhere in the entire store for me to try, and they wouldn't hear of me trying the silver one if I wanted to purchase rose gold. Odd.... I know.
Maybe the next time I'm in Boca Raton, I'll look into the Open Heart again.. I have my eye on the yellow gold version with the yellow diamond.

I wonder the same thing. I did have a problem with all of the open space in the middle, too... I wonder if it's something I could have "gotten over" and lived with had it been longer... or a different metal...
A Tiffany & Co. sales associate told me (years ago, when the second Bridget Jones film was released) that it was the sterling silver Small Open Heart on a 16" sterling silver chain used in the movie. A customer service representative confirmed when I lost the piece of paper on which I'd written this information, only to find it again during the phone call to Tiffany.
I found it very flattering on "Bridget"... but I think it was the short chain that didn't work for me. It hung oddly. Sad, because I'd assumed that a 16" chain would be perfect for wearing it with crew-neck tee shirts, etc.
Interesting...because in the pictures from the movie, i would never guess that as a 16 inch chain Renee Z was not her skinny self in that role
Renee Z. was a US size 14 in that film. She's actually fairly petite (5'4") and typically 125lbs. It was reported that she gained 20-30lbs for her role as Bridget Jones.
For comparison, I am 5'5" and 142lbs. I am a US size 8/10. The 16" chain hangs the same on me as it did in the film, but for me it was far less flattering. Maybe because I don't have the big chest that Renee had when she was a 'larger' size?
I'm beginning to think that an 18" chain would have been far more flattering on me.
