A halterneck bra has straps that can be reconfigured to loop around the back of your neck rather than sitting over your shoulders. At Brava, our halter-capable bras are mostly convertible styles — the same bra you'd wear standard or strapless can usually be worn halter, depending on how the straps are positioned. This makes them ideal for halterneck dresses, swimwear-style tops, low-back outfits and any look where you want the support without visible shoulder straps.
Halterneck for a fuller bust
For D cup and up, halterneck strap configurations actually offer some advantages — the strap distributes weight across a different point and can reduce the tendency for straps to slip off the shoulder that taller-breasted women sometimes experience. With a halter, the strap tension sits on the back of your neck rather than your shoulders. For longer events, switch back to standard straps where possible, or pair with a structured purpose-built strapless underneath if the outfit allows.
How to choose
Halter-capable styles are available across a range of D+ cup and band sizes; check each style for its size range. If you're between sizes or unsure how the convertible straps work for your shape, our expert fitters can help — book an in-store fitting at Brava HQ Moorabbin or our Sydney boutique, or try ZoomFit over video call.
