Your Zoom Date Might Be Cringey, But You'll Look Cute in These 4 Necklines
The blazer-on-top-and-sweatpants-on-bottom joke is a little stale by now, but it's not any less true 12 months into the pandemic. It's all about the top half of your look when you have meetings, classes, interviews, and even engagement ring reveals on Zoom.
When it comes to Zoom dating, I happen to think it's a lot easier to pick out a virtual outfit compared to an IRL one. Forget all the questions you used to ask yourself: Is this dress too long? Too short? What shoes do I wear with these jeans? Now, if you want to put some thought into your date outfit, all you have to consider is the neckline. Are you going for a flirty vibe or a sleek and serious look? Scroll down for four neckline ideas for your next Zoom date.
Sweetheart Necklines
I love sweetheart necklines and think they're perfect for a Zoom date. If I'm wearing a solid color, I love to show off a beautiful necklace, but if I'm wearing a busy print, I just let the shape of the neckline do all the talking.
Mock Necks
Mock necks are perfect if you're going for a super sleek vibe and don't feel like showing off skin. I would personally wear my hair back and throw on a cute pair of earrings.
Square Necks
Square necks were all over Bridgerton, so obviously they're surging in popularity right now. I think they feel fresher than a classic V neck and are great for showing off necklaces.
Cutouts
Tell me you're a fashion girl without telling me you're a fashion girl. If you want to make a memorable impression, cutouts are the way to go. They definitely make a statement and will show your date that you're on top of trends.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
