Why Halter Prom Dresses Work So Well

The appeal of a halter prom dress hasn’t faded – and likely won’t for a long time. These prom dresses have necklines that draw the attention upward, framing the shoulders and helping you stay put without needing constant adjustment. And, trust us, there’s nothing better than a dress that holds in place. 

A halter neck prom dress adds structure to the top of the gown, which balances out dramatic skirts or sleek, fitted shapes. It also works well with various hairstyles, as updos show off the neckline, while having your hair down sits naturally without getting tangled in straps.

These prom dresses are not a throwback cut. It’s a style that defines the upper body, opens up the neck, and works on so many different frames.
