A half zip is a collar decision disguised as a closure. Pull it up and the collar stands; drop it halfway and the whole thing opens into a wide spread that frames the neck instead of covering it. One garment, two necklines.
The collar here is generous - deep enough to fold over properly when it is closed, wide enough to sit flat across the shoulders when it is not. The rib is broad rather than fine, running the length of the body and down each sleeve, and the shoulders drop past the joint so nothing pulls when the zip is up.
It is the piece that makes a plain pair of trousers look like a decision rather than a default. Most days, that is the whole ask.
