The Y2K halter neck trend is back & might be the most flattering trend for 2024
Halter tops and halter neck dresses are back for 2024. This classic silhoeutte, along with lots of other Y2K trends like mini skirts, crop tops and metallics is back. Unlike crop tops, halter necks are one of the most flattering 2024 trends. They show off toned shoulders and backs and elongate bodies. It doesn’t matter whether they’re casual or crystal encrusted as seen on Bella Hadid and at Courrèges, Fendi, Alexander McQueen, Bottega Veneta, Valentino, Copernie and Tove Spring 2024, Staud Spring ready-to-wear, and Badgley Mischka NYFW runway shows. Here’s the best of them from luxe for less to designer halter tops.
What halter necks are in style for 2024?
The whole fashion vibe for 2024 is more neutral and elegant. So the most on trend halter necks for both tops and dresses for 2024 are in luxe fabrics like velvet as seen at Alexander McQueen SS24, neutrals and in classic cuts and body flattering styles. Although, if you want some that’s more statement making, look for hardware like buckles as seen at Coperni or add a brooch. Which is another trend for this Fall/Winter.

The best halter dresses to wear in 2024
2024 is all about showing skin and these sexy halter dresses (aka halterneck) have the most stunning backless designs. A lot of these halter neck dresses also tie into the satin slip dress, cut out and sequin halterneck dress trend.
Whether you go for a monochromatic look, color blocking or style your halter dresses with contrasting accessories, it’s all about the neckline.

I ordered the red satin mini halter neck dress (top) for date night on the Vegas strip. It’s by Elliatt and runs true to size, it also has the sexiest low cut back. I loved it so much I ordered it in white too (below).
The gold sequin halter neck dress (above) was for the Palazzo Chairman suite and looks absolutely stunning when it catches the light. It looks more white than gold on the model than it does in real life (see picture above).
The best halter tops for 2024 | Luxe for less
The beauty of these halter neck top styles is that you don’t need to worry about what necklace to wear with them. They’re easy to dress up with a mini skirt or down with jeans. If you have a pair of statement earrings you want to show off, a halter neck top is the perfect top to do it in. Along with a sleek bun to show off the neckline and sexy backless style.
Best designer halter tops
These designer halter tops are right on trend for 2024. I love how fun the bright colors trending for 2024 are and how comfortable luxe fabrics like satin are. Dress them down with jeans or go full on glam.
If you’re looking for a classic statement piece, Balmain’s black and gold button halter top is a stunning choice. For more casual but sophisticated day time looks, look for neutral linen halterneck vest tops.
