Reviews Summary

Customers keep coming back to this top for its “beautiful drape” and the way it sits—flattering without clinging, and polished without feeling fussy. The fabric gets consistent love for being soft, comfy, and easy to wash and wear, with several people buying multiple colours because it works with everything from jeans to skirts to office trousers. Fit is generally praised as spot-on, though a noticeable group mentions the length runs a little short (especially for longer torsos), sometimes sizing up for extra coverage or sizing down for a less-draped look.

What Customers Love Most

  • Flattering drape that “falls softly” and “sits beautifully” without adding bulk
  • Soft, comfortable fabric that feels good on skin (often described as “sooooo comfy”)
  • Versatility: easy to dress up or down (work, casual, dinner, travel)
  • Great fit and shape that works on different body types (including “hides lumps and bumps”)
  • Easy-care/wash-and-wear with little to no ironing needed (for many buyers)

Customers Say These Are Perfect For

  • Workwear under a blazer or jacket (polished, professional look)
  • Travel and holidays (pack-friendly, easy outfit-maker)
  • Dressing up jeans for a smarter casual outfit
  • People wanting a flattering top that skims the tummy and doesn’t cling
  • Days that run from office to coffee/lunch to dinner with a quick accessory change

Customer Feedback on Quality

  • Fabric is frequently described as “not flimsy,” “thicker than expected,” and “not see-through” (especially in white)
  • Holds up well for everyday wear and travel; multiple repeat purchases and multi-colour buying suggests good longevity
  • Construction/finish details customers notice: sits neatly, doesn’t gape, good bust coverage, and looks “polished under a jacket”

Customer Fit Feedback

Most customers report: mostly true to size, with some customers sizing up or down depending on desired drape/length

Many describe it as “true to size” with a “great fit,” but several note the length is on the shorter side (especially if you have a longer torso or want more belly coverage). A few sized up to get more length/coverage or more drape, while others swapped down a size (e.g., medium to small) for a neater fit. Customers also call out practical fit wins like “doesn’t gape,” “bra strap doesn’t show,” and “not too low in the front,” plus a waist-length that often means “no need to tuck.”

What Customers Say

  • "“This top is the perfect blend: looks professional while it feels like pyjamas.”"
  • "“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 lumps and bumps… so a win win situation.”"

Frequently Asked Questions

Real answers based on customer reviews

Style & Versatility

Can I dress this top up for work and also wear it casually?

Yes—reviewers repeatedly describe it as an easy “dress up or down” piece for everything from office wear to coffee, lunch, and dinner. Many mention it looks polished under a blazer or jacket, but also works with jeans for casual days. Based on 15 reviews, versatility is one of the most consistent themes (around 27% of reviewers).

Based on 15 customer reviews
Does it work well with high-waisted pants or skirts (and can I wear it untucked)?

Yes—several reviewers specifically mention styling it with high-waisted pants/skirts and loving that it sits at the waist without needing to be tucked in. Customers like the “right length” for a neat, polished finish. This styling point is supported by 4 reviews (about 7%).

Based on 4 customer reviews

Fit & Sizing

Does it drape nicely and sit well, or does it gape?

Most customers say the top drapes beautifully and “sits” very well, creating a flattering fall rather than clinging. Several specifically call out that it doesn’t gape, which is a common fit concern with draped necklines. In 14 reviews (about 25% of reviewers), drape and how it sits are highlighted as standout features.

Based on 14 customer reviews
How does the sizing run—should I stick to my usual size or size up/down?

Feedback suggests many people find it true to size, but a noticeable group sized up to get a better drape and a touch more length. For example, one reviewer went from medium to large for a nicer drape, and others exchanged for a bigger size after trying. Across 8 reviews (about 14%), sizing guidance comes down to: choose your usual size for a closer fit, or size up if you want extra drape/coverage.

Based on 8 customer reviews
How long is it—will it cover my tummy, or is it on the shorter side?

Length is the most common “watch-out”: several reviewers say it runs quite short, especially for longer torsos or if you want more belly coverage. Some addressed this by sizing up for extra length, while others returned it because it wasn’t long enough in front. This concern appears in 7 reviews (about 12%).

Based on 7 customer reviews
Will the neckline give good coverage (and keep bra straps from showing)?

Many customers are happy with the neckline, mentioning good bust coverage and that bra straps don’t show. A few also note it isn’t too low in the front, so they don’t need to wear a singlet for modesty. Neckline/coverage feedback is supported by 5 reviews (about 9%).

Based on 5 customer reviews
I’m petite—will the length work for me?

Petite feedback is generally positive: one reviewer says it’s a great length for petite heights, and another at 155cm notes it sits around the hips. At the same time, length can feel short on longer bodies, so petite shoppers may find it hits more ideally without needing alterations. This is supported by 3 reviews (about 5%).

Based on 3 customer reviews

Comfort

Is the fabric soft and comfortable enough for all-day wear?

Yes—comfort and softness are among the most repeated comments, with multiple reviewers saying it feels great on the skin and is “super comfy.” One customer even said it looks professional while feeling like “pyjamas,” and others call it their easiest top to wear. This theme appears in 13 reviews (around 23% of reviewers).

Based on 13 customer reviews
Does it flatter different body shapes—will it cling or show lumps and bumps?

Reviewers frequently describe the fit as flattering, with the drape helping it skim the body rather than cling. Some explicitly say it “hides lumps and bumps” and were pleasantly surprised by tummy coverage once on. Flattering/forgiving fit is supported by 5 reviews (about 9%).

Based on 5 customer reviews

Material & Quality

Is the white version see-through?

Several reviewers specifically mention the fabric is not see-through, including buyers of the white top who were pleased with the coverage. While not everyone comments on opacity, the people who do generally report it’s opaque and wearable without worrying. This is supported by 3 reviews (about 5% of reviewers).

Based on 3 customer reviews
Is the material good quality or does it feel flimsy?

Most reviewers describe the fabric as beautiful with a substantial drape, and one notes it’s “much thicker than expected” and “really good quality.” Others say it’s not flimsy and falls softly, which contributes to the polished look. Quality/fabric substance is supported by 7 reviews (about 12%).

Based on 7 customer reviews

Performance

Is this a good travel top (comfortable, packable, practical)?

Yes—multiple reviewers call it great for travel and holidays because it’s comfortable and easy to wear while still looking elevated. Customers mention planning to wear it on holiday and liking it for everyday wear plus travel. Travel suitability shows up in 5 reviews (about 9%).

Based on 5 customer reviews

Care & Maintenance

Does the fabric wrinkle/crease, or is it low-maintenance?

Reviews are mixed: one customer loved that they don’t have to iron it, but another was surprised the fabric creases badly and deducted a star for that reason. If you’re crease-sensitive, you may want to test it after washing or plan to steam it before wearing. Wrinkle/ironing feedback appears in 3 reviews (about 5%).

Based on 3 customer reviews

Value

How easy are returns/exchanges if I get the size wrong?

Multiple reviewers mention the return/exchange process was very easy, with strong communication and service. A few people specifically reference having to change sizes (or making returns after trying) and being happy with how smoothly it was handled. This is supported by 4 reviews (about 7%).

Athena Drape Top - White
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.
