sleeveless

Describes a top, such as a shirt or dress, that keeps a neckline but has no sleeves at all, leaving the arms uncovered. One popular variant has armholes cut steeply toward the neck, exposing much of the shoulder, and frequently takes the form of a sleeveless turtleneck. Garments with no straps or with bare shoulders, like strapless or halterneck designs, are separate styles.
