How to wear an over-the-shoulder belt?

I've wanted one for a long time, and now I have a belt with an over-the-shoulder strap. It looks great from the front, but I've never seen what it is supposed to look like from the back. Does it go straight down from the shoulder to the belt or back across to the hip on the opposite side mirroring the front. For actual support reasons, I think it should go straight down the back to the hip on the same side as the shoulder it passes over (i.e., right side) especially if a holster is on the belt, otherwise the holster and weapon would pull down the right side too much. I've seen it worn both ways on display dummies, but not on a human. Do any of you humans know which is the proper way? Or if a dummy wants to speak up, I'll read your opinion too.:D

Many thanks,
Phillip
