In the midst of high summer, when your biggest concern is staying cool and comfortable, it’s easy to resort to a familiar rotation of tank tops and denim shorts. Whilst there’s certainly nothing wrong with honing a uniform that can see you through the season, sometimes it’s nice to break it up with a new-season trend that can offer you the same cooling qualities, but with a 2024-twist.
Similar in silhouette—but with an undeniably elegant finish—halternecks are the anti-tank top trend that celebrities have been reaching for this summer.
Cropping up in the wardrobe of Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, the model chose an elevated white style that she paired with beige trousers and a sleek leather belt. Curving down to create a V-neck cut, the halter neck top featured slim straps that framed the Huntington-Whiteley’s neck in a flattering and chic manner.
Also elevating her summer style, Zendaya chose a similar white halter neck top for an outing in Paris. Styling hers with a green skirt, the actor kept her accessories minimal and laidback, selecting two necklaces and a simple hoop earrings to complete her look. Pulling her hair back from the face, the actor showed off the elegant neckline, which helped the growing top trend look all-the-more polished.
Adding a ’90s energy to your look, as well as a summer-ready silhouette, the halter neck top trend is on the up for good reason. A wardrobe hero for sweltering summer days, read on to discover our edit of the best halter neck tops to shop this season.
