Customer Reviews
Reviews Summary
Customers keep coming back for this top in multiple colours because it’s “buttery soft,” drapes in a flattering way, and feels comfortable all day without looking sloppy. The crossover front is repeatedly praised for being modest and secure—people love that it “doesn’t gape,” covers bra straps well, and looks sleek under a blazer. Fit is generally described as true to size, but plenty of shoppers mention the front can feel a bit short (especially on taller or long-torso bodies), so high-waisted bottoms or a size tweak can make it perfect.
What Customers Love Most
- Buttery-soft, silky-feeling fabric that’s comfortable against the skin
- Flattering drape/crossover design that “falls beautifully” and looks elegant without feeling dressy
- Versatility: easy to dress up or down (work, casual, dinner, travel)
- No-gape neckline/clever modesty stitch so you’re not “worrying about falling out of it”
- Wash-and-wear ease (steams easily / no ironing required / crease-proof for travel)
Customers Say These Are Perfect For
- Office wear under a blazer or jacket (smart without trying too hard)
- Travel days and flights (packable, comfy, “no ironing required”)
- Dinner/drinks after work with heels and jewellery
- Curvy or larger-bust shoppers wanting coverage that’s flattering, not “baggy and daggy”
- High-waisted pants/skirts—especially matching wide-leg/‘Nomad’ pants for an easy set
Customer Feedback on Quality
- Fabric feels “soft and fluid but not at all flimsy” (some note it’s thicker than expected and not see-through)
- Washes well / easy care: “wash and wear,” “no ironing required,” and “steams easily” come up often (one reviewer did report creasing)
- Well-made construction details customers notice: the “little modesty stitch”/discreet front stitching and neatly finished hem/elastic hem that sits at the waist without needing to tuck
Customer Fit Feedback
Many call it true to size (e.g., M = AU 12; S fits petite shoppers), but sizing tweaks are common: several exchanged from M to S because it felt “roomy,” while others sized up for extra drape or a touch more tummy coverage/length—especially larger bust or long-torso/taller customers. The front can sit at/above the waist (“belly button length” for some) and may show belly when reaching up; high-waisted pants/skirts help. Armholes/underarm coverage are repeatedly mentioned as well-designed (“arm holes are not too big,” “no gapping at all”), and the cut is frequently praised for suiting larger busts (DD/EE/F cups).
What Customers Say
- "“I love how it drapes… I love how it doesn’t gape… I love that I don’t have to iron it.”"
- "“Hides all my imperfections but without looking baggy and daggy.”"
- "“Light, soft and flows. Perfect for work and on to dinner after.”"
Shop the Look
When my Dharma Bums order arrived I was excited to see how the Athena Drape Top would look on a more mature woman. To my delight it looks and feels great. A very easy to wear elegant fit top. I would recommend this item to every woman of any age.
This top is absolute style from a casual or dress up approach! The luxurious feeling fabric is on point for wear and the hem finishes beautifully- just the right length so no having to tuck in! Love the two I purchased & for some reason I just keep going back for more of everything!
I love everything about this top. Fabric, shape, draping.. A new favourite that I will definitely keep reaching for in my wardrobe. Considering purchasing in more colorways :)
Athena drape top hides all my imperfections but without looking baggy and daggy. The top looks very classy and can be dressed up or down. The arm holes are not too big which is an added bonus.
Soft fabric, beautiful drape and classy style for work or casual. Great length for petite heights. Not sure if I should size down on next purchase or stick with the current size
The white drape top is exactly what I was looking for. It's comfortable and stylish and sits beautifully. It will go so well with jeans, pants, and a skirt that I've had in the wardrobe for ages and never worn because I couldn't find a top that would do it justice. I'm very happy with my purchase and plan to order another in a different colour.
I don’t normally write reviews but this clothing has become my favourite ‘go to’ for comfort and leisure. I had purchased the wide leg pants in navy and the white Athena top and loved them so much for their softness, comfort and drape that I bought the navy Athena top. I now have a smart set that I can wear for travel, brunch, shopping and light exercise. Highly recommend DharmaBums.
Such an elegant top that feels and fits beautifully.
Beautiful fabric, drapes nicely. Feels soft and luxurious. Will look at also purchasing the white. If you are in between sizes I would suggest going up a size as the length is a little bit shorter than what I was anticipating. Highly recommend.
This is my 2nd Athena top, love it so comfortable, easy to dress up or down.
