Reviews Summary
Shoppers keep coming back for multiple colours because the Athena Drape Top nails that rare combo: it looks “elegant and put together” while feeling “buttery soft” and genuinely comfortable all day. The crossover drape is repeatedly described as flattering and forgiving through the midsection—“hides lumps and bumps” without looking “baggy and daggy”—and many love that it looks polished under a blazer or styled with the matching pants. A recurring note is length: plenty find it perfect (especially petite frames), while taller or longer-torso customers often size up or prefer high-waisted bottoms for extra front coverage.
What Customers Love Most
- Buttery-soft, silky-feel fabric that drapes/falls beautifully (soft, fluid, not clingy)
- Flattering crossover/drape cut that’s “forgiving” through the tummy and works on curvy bodies and larger busts
- Versatility—easy to dress up or down (work, weekend, dinner) and layers well under blazers/jackets
- Wash-and-wear practicality: “machine wash, drip dry… no ironing needed” / great travel piece
- Thoughtful coverage details: V-neck that’s “not too plunging,” doesn’t gape, bra straps covered, armholes/shoulder lines praised
Customers Say These Are Perfect For
- Workwear (office-ready under a blazer, with work pants or a skirt)
- Travel and flights (packable, wash-and-wear, “travel wardrobe” staple)
- “Jeans and a nice top” weekends (denim, shorts, casual errands, brunch)
- Curvy or busty shoppers who want coverage without feeling frumpy (DD/E/F cups mentioned)
- High-waisted bottoms and matching sets (Nomad/wide-leg/straight-leg pants; Lune skirt) for a streamlined outfit
Customer Feedback on Quality
- Fabric repeatedly described as “beautiful quality,” “not flimsy,” “much thicker than I expected,” and “not see through”
- Holds up to washing: “washed on a delicate cycle… dried beautifully,” “wash and wear so well,” and often reported as crease/iron-free (though a small group mentions it can crease and be hard to de-wrinkle)
- Construction/finish details get called out: “little modesty stitch” to prevent gaping, bra-strap-covering shoulder straps, flattering armholes, and an elastic hem that gives a tucked-in look without needing to tuck
Customer Fit Feedback
Many call it “true to size” and cite AU sizing (e.g., M = AU 12; L for 12–14; 3XL for 18–20). Petite customers (around 153–156cm) often say the length is perfect and love the slightly longer back; several mention it “sits nicely on the hip/waist” and creates a tucked-in look without tucking. Repeated fit adjustment is about torso length: taller/long-bodied or size 18–20+ shoppers frequently say it’s “a bit short in the front” or can show belly when arms lift; common workaround is sizing up for extra length/drape or wearing with high-waisted pants/skirts. A few note the top feels “roomy” and suggest sizing down for a neater fit, while others size up for more relaxed underarm/bust comfort.
What Customers Say
- "“I love how it doesn’t gape. I love that my bra strap doesn’t show. I love that I don’t have to iron it.”"
- "“Hides all my imperfections but without looking baggy and daggy.”"
- "“Perfect for work and on to dinner after… I’ve now ordered it in two other colours!”"

I’m a dance teacher and these tops are my frickin uniform. Comfy, glam, durable… five stars! Hoping the full colour range is here to stay as I’d love to keep replacing!
A beautiful fit and soft fabric, wear all day comfort. The first day I wore it to work I received compliments all day…. Who would complain about that. Will definitely be buying from this site again… Love ❤️
So beautiful, the fabric and drape is fabulous! I am normally a size 12 and after a few returns finally nailed the right size L. The company made the return process so easy! Stunning tops!
I wore this to work today and received so many compliments. So pleased with my purchase.
Beautiful fit with a lovely fall. No worrying about gap. Elegant, soft and lovely.
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.
The Athena top is beautiful , the fabric is so soft and a perfect fit
Absolutely love the Athena Drop top! I now need them in all the colours!!!
So happy with this top. I'm sure it will be the first of several. Love the feel.
Lovely, soft, flattering top perfect for pairing with work slacks or loungewear at home. True to size, perfect fit. I’m a size 8 in most tops, 10E bra size, and the small was perfect.

I'm not sure if it's because I have a larger bust, or if I should have sized up, but I keep wanting to pull it down because it feels a little short on me. Maybe I'm just showing my age! 😂
That said, the fabric is beautiful, and I really love the style. If it were just a touch longer, it would be perfect.
