Racerback design
The stylish design meets function with a racerback cut that distributes weight evenly across your shoulders and back. This athletic-inspired shape gives you unrestricted movement for active water sports or chasing kids along the shore.

How do you wear a halter bikini top?
A halter neck bikini top opens up endless combinations for summer style. Here's how to rock yours with confidence:
- Find your perfect fit: Start with your sports bra size as a guide. The elastic band should sit flat against your ribcage without riding up or digging in. For larger busts, our tops' racerback design distributes weight evenly across your shoulders.
- Style options: Find your personal style by mixing tops with different bottoms. Try a side-tie bikini bottom for a classic beach look, or pair it with swim shorts for active days. Add a swim skirt for additional coverage when transitioning from the beach to the boardwalk.
- Color coordination: Our tops come in a range of colors—from classic solids to vibrant shades. Pick one that complements your skin tone, or choose your favorite color and match it with any of our bottoms for a look you'll love.
- Accessorize: Complete your beach outfit with a sun hat and sunglasses for extra UV protection. For a standout summer look, layer with a light cover-up when heading to a beach party or beachside lunch.
What body type looks good in halter tops?
Halter tops flatter many different body types and can be a fantastic choice for your pool party wardrobe. Their unique cut creates balanced proportions and draws attention upward to frame your face and shoulders.
- Athletic frames benefit from the feminine neckline, which softens straight lines. The racerback design adds definition while providing excellent support during activities.
- For hourglass figures, these tops highlight natural curves while offering proper support. The cup size matters less than comfort; our tops work well for fuller and smaller busts.
- Pear-shaped figures love how halter tops balance their proportions. The eye-catching neckline creates visual interest up top, while our medium coverage design offers confidence and security.
- For apple shapes, these supportive swim tops smooth and streamline your silhouette. The racerback detail creates an elongating effect that flatters your frame.
