6 Types of Open-Back Dresses from Amarra

Amarra open-back dresses feature many different back designs, so you can choose just how dramatically you want heads to turn as you walk by in your chosen style. From more modest cut-out open-back prom dresses to the sexiest of backless cocktail dresses, there are confidence-boosting designs at every level of sultry allure. Here are the six most popular types of open-back dresses you can explore in the above collection of Amarra backless dresses:

  • Backless Dresses: Completely open down to the waistline (and sometimes even a little bit lower!), backless prom dresses and backless cocktail dresses are the styles that show off the most skin, making them the sexiest open-back options. Occasionally, backless evening dresses will feature a strap across the upper back for support. Choose a backless dress if you are comfortable and confident about baring your back and going braless to your special occasion.
  • Cut-Out Open-Back Dresses: The spice level for cut-out open-back dresses varies depending on just how big the cut out gets. If it’s a smaller keyhole cut out, you might even still be able to wear a bra with your open-back prom dress! On the other hand, if the cut out on your open-back dress is a larger geometric shape that extends past the bra line, you might have to get more creative with your bra choice (or skip one entirely).
  • Lace-Up Open-Back Dresses: This type of open-back dress laces up in a classic corset style and ties into an adjustable bow. Perfect for securing a snug, customizable fit, lace-up open-back dresses can also vary in the level of spicy allure. If the lacing spans the whole width of the back, then the dress open-back design is very bold. On the other hand, if the lace-up area is a small strip down the middle of the back, then the style is more demure, especially if you choose to add a modesty panel beneath the lacing.
  • Halter Open-Back Dresses: With the straps secured against the neck in a halter style, this type of open-back dress is typically bare down to the mid- or lower back. Just how far the dip goes below the halter strap determines how sexy your open-back prom dress or party dress will be. A halter backless dress can be bra-friendly if it doesn’t dip too low.
  • Deep-V Open-Back Dresses: This style is similar to low-back prom dresses in the way they dip down to the lower back, but these backless evening gowns feature a flattering v-shape that is visually slenderizing thanks to the way it draws the eyes in a vertical direction up and down the back. Deep-v open-back evening dresses that go all the way to the waistline (or lower) are also often referred to as deep backless dresses.
  • Strappy Backless Dresses: When your backless cocktail dress or backless prom dress features multiple spaghetti straps that create unique shapes and crisscrossing designs, you’ve got yourself a strappy open-back dress. If the straps are secured and not adjustable, the style is sometimes referred to as a crisscross-back dress. Styles with strappy designs that can be tied into adjustable knots or bows are often called tie-back dresses. Most strappy backless homecoming dresses and strappy open-back evening dresses are not bra friendly, so you’ll need to plan accordingly!

So just how bold do you want to go with your Amarra open-back dress? Are you ready to dive right into the completely backless dresses, or is a lace-up open-back dress with adjustable modesty options more your speed? Wherever you fall on the spicy fashion spectrum, the above collection of Amarra open-back dresses is ready to meet you where you’re comfortable with gorgeously designed styles in hand.
