Tops with straps
Halternecks are garments—typically tops, dresses, or swimsuits—with straps that wrap around the back of the neck, leaving the shoulders and upper back bare: She wore a halterneck dress to the beach party.
The style emphasizes the shoulders and collarbone.
Also called halter tops or simply halters.
