What Is A Halter Dress?

A halter neck dress is sleeveless and has a high neck. It has straps or bands that go around your neck and tie at the back. Sometimes, it’s just one strap that goes around your neck and connects on the other side. While this is a basic outline, you can tweak it according to the fabric, flow, and fit of your dress.
