That's what the two button holes are for — shorten the straps to lift the bust line, lengthen them if the empire seam is riding too high. The skirt falls loose from just under the bust and skims the hips rather than gripping them, which is why one size covers a wider range of bodies than you'd expect. Halter necklines leave the shoulders and upper back bare, so plan your undergarments accordingly.
