Everything about Halterneck totally explained
Halterneck refers to a type of women's
clothing with a single
strap around the back of the neck instead of straps over each shoulder. This can refer to either a
dress or a separate shirt, called a
halter top. The latter is a type of
sleeveless shirt similar to a
tank top (by the American English definition).
Halterneck garments are generally considered more provocative because they leave the
back free, exposing the
shoulder blades. As such, it has been banned (along with
spaghetti strap and other revealing clothing) from wearing in a number of American high schools. If a
bra is worn with a haltertop, it's generally strapless, as to avoid exposing the back straps of a typical bra. Some garments with halternecks may tie at the back of the neck, as is often seen in bathing suits.
In another model of the halter top (not pictured), there's only a narrow strap behind the neck and a narrow strap behind the middle of the back, so that it's mostly backless. This design leaves most of the abdomen uncovered and it's more like many bikini tops (although it covers the chest more).
The term "halter" comes from the German word for "holder," as in
Büstenhalter, which literally means "busts-holder" and is equivalent to "
brassiere".
