The verdict
Fit
Halter styling creates a fitted, defined neckline and usually pulls the torso closer to the body. Sizing typically runs true.
Quality
Halter tanks from this brand are well-finished. The construction should support repeated wear without seam stress.
Is the price fair?
Mid-market for a halter tank with a recognized brand. The neckline adds modest design value but not enough to push it into premium territory.
Best for
Someone shopping for a halter top who values brand consistency and doesn't want to hunt across lower-tier brands for reliable construction.
Care
Machine wash cool and lay flat; the halter strap stitching should be protected from agitation.
Fit check: Citizens of Humanity
Runs largeCitizens of Humanity tends to run about half a size large and stretches with wear, so most owners size down for a fitted look.
A stylist's sizing guide reports the brand "generally run[s] about half a size large" and that owners "expect about an inch of stretch in the waistband after a few hours of wear," advising those between sizes to go down one. Hands-on reviewers back this up across cuts: one who ordered her chart size in the Horseshoe jean found it loose and repurchased a size down, and a shorts reviewer says the relaxed styles "run really big" and always sizes down. The caveat owners flag is line-level: relaxed and baggy cuts run largest, while high-rise styles fit closer to true size — and older forum threads on the skinny-era styles were more mixed.
Sizing advice: Size down one if you're between sizes or want a snug fit — especially in relaxed and baggy cuts, which stretch and loosen with wear; stay true to size only if you want the intentionally slouchy look.
