This opening style is called a cowl halter. What that means is that it's like a cowl neck
shirt, except it has a halter top. A halter top means that no matter what you have, here
is your design style. In order for it to be labeled with this word, halter, it needs to
cut in ever so lightly, slightly, or a whole wide, it doesn't matter, needs to cut in from
the armpit up to some point on the shoulder line, and then it has to go around the neck.
That's the whole point of a halter is that it goes all the way around the neck. And this
could have a, it could have buttons, maybe, making it closed, it could have tabs, it could
be tied, but it has to go around the full length of the neck in order to be called a
halter. The cowl part of it comes from the neckline being draped in such a way as represented
here by our little dashes and shading. This just shows that it's draped and it's hanging
around the neckline.
