Don't know but they're my top of choice for flattering my AA bust so I'd be a bit doubtful!

for some reason i have the image of barbara windsor in 'carry on camping' in my head. despite the fact i haven't even seen the film

Yes as long as they are good boobs and also as long as you have really nice arms.

On a different note, I just googled halter-neck and got back possibly The worst boob job I've ever seen

Enlarge image for full effect.

I think they can really good if they fit well. I've always worn halter neck bikini tops and |I think they flatter my big boobs the most.

OMG that didn't work did it!

Lordy, her nipple is looking over her left shoulder - how odd!

They look nice on everyone but your neck will take the strain of your boobs and will ache by the end of the day.

you need a good strapless bra, OR one with the adjustable halterneck type strap. Hard to pull off tho.

I (32E) avoid like the plague, as I think they make me look as though I have slung my boobs round my neck in a bag. I think it depends to a certain degree what your shoulders are like.

eeks, that link, it's like a kid decided to glue the nipple on and didn't get it quite right!!!!

Like 'Pin the nip on the ho-bag' pirate?

piratecat · 11/02/2010 13:59

and avoid those ones that have the built in support,they make your boobs look like one big loaf of bread.

piratecat · 11/02/2010 14:00

lol @ bunny !!

dinkystinky · 11/02/2010 14:00

Hmm, depends on the style - risk of looking v Anna Nicole-Smith if you're not careful!

piratecat · 11/02/2010 14:00

lol @ bunny !!

waitingforgodot · 11/02/2010 14:06

That photo is horrendous.
General consensus= avoid like the plague!

ha ha piratecat the loaf of bread look is known as the mono-tit by me and my mates!

EdgarAllenSnow · 11/02/2010 21:07

you need a really really good halterneck-appropriate bra before you even consider it.

of course, Marilyn Monroe wore halternecks, but she'd have had some kind of corsetry going on....
