Well, it would depend. If the jewelry was wide and filled the whole area between the neckline of the garment and the neck, it could be The jewelry filled (or fills) the neckline. I would say this.

But, if the jewelry filled the area just between or near the top of the woman's *******, I would say The jewelry filled (or fills) the décolletage.
