Reviews Summary

Customers keep coming back for multiple colours because the Athena Drape Top feels “buttery soft,” falls beautifully, and somehow manages to be flattering without looking “baggy and daggy.” The crossover design gets consistent praise for staying put—no gaping at the bust, good underarm/shoulder coverage, and a neckline that’s “not too plunging.” It’s widely worn as a matching set with Nomad/wide-leg pants, but reviewers also reach for it with jeans, blazers, skirts, and as an easy, crease-resistant travel piece.

What Customers Love Most

  • Buttery-soft, silky-feel fabric that’s comfortable against the skin
  • Flattering drape that “falls beautifully” and skims the body
  • Versatility: easily dressed up or down (work, dinner, casual)
  • Crossover front that “doesn’t gape” (modesty stitch/secure neckline)
  • Easy care: “wash and wear,” often “no ironing required” / travel-friendly

Customers Say These Are Perfect For

  • Workwear (under a blazer/jacket, with tailored pants or a skirt)
  • Travel and flights (packable, wash-and-wear sets)
  • Dressing up wide-leg/modal pants into a dinner-ready outfit
  • Curvy or busty shoppers wanting coverage without a clingy fit (DD–F/EE mentions)
  • High-waisted bottoms when you want a polished waist-length top with a longer back

Customer Feedback on Quality

  • Fabric described as “soft and fluid but not at all flimsy” and “much thicker than I expected - really good quality”
  • Holds up to regular wear with positive ‘washes well’ feedback; many call it “wash and wear”
  • Thoughtful construction details called out: “little modesty stitch,” secure crossover that “doesn’t gape,” and a hem that sits neatly so there’s “no having to tuck in”

Customer Fit Feedback

Most customers report: mostly true to size, with frequent notes that it’s short in the front/waist-length and some customers size up (for length/drape) or size down (because it can feel roomy).

Many say ‘true to size’ (e.g., M = AU 12; S for petite), and busty shoppers often mention it works well for larger cups (DD, 14F, 14EE) without gaping. A recurring theme is length: it sits at/near the waist and can feel ‘a fraction shorter’ in front—taller or long-torso customers sometimes size up for extra length or prefer pairing with high-waisted pants/skirts. Several reviewers also note good armhole/shoulder coverage (‘arm holes are not too big’, ‘covers bra straps’) and that the neckline is ‘not too plunging.’

What Customers Say

  • "“Athena drape top hides all my imperfections but without looking baggy and daggy.”"
  • "“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.”"
  • "“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.

Athena Drape Top - Taupe
Really love this top especially how it’s made to sit under the arms … no gapping at all and also how it’s discreetly stitched in the front so it flows beautifully and looks stylish again without having to worry that is going to gape when leaning over slightly. Really great style and well thought through.

Athena Drape Top - Taupe
Such a beautiful top and a great addition to my wardrobe. I love it so much I have bought it in another two colours! The fabric is so soft, falls beautifully and steams easily. I am normally a size 10 in tops but went with a Medium for a little more room under the arms. Would definitely recommend.
