Women's Keyhole Neckline Shirts: Shop by Style, Detail & Fit

Keyhole necklines feature a small cutout, often with a button or tie, at the throat or bust. The peek of skin is flirtatious yet tasteful.

The small opening draws the eye to the face and flatters most figures. It adds interest without the commitment of a deep neckline. The detail suits conservative dressers wanting a hint of allure.

How to Style Keyhole Neckline Shirts

Let the keyhole be the jewelry; skip necklaces or wear them longer. It works beautifully for office blouses with personality and for evening tops. Ensure the cutout lies flat for polish.

What to Look for When Buying

Shop necklines with your lifestyle in mind: higher necklines for professional settings, open ones for evenings and weekends. Feel the finishing around the opening — bound or faced edges last longer than raw ones. If you fall between sizes, fit the shoulders and neckline first; a tailor can adjust the body. The right neckline makes the whole outfit work harder.
