Reviews Summary

Customers keep coming back for the Athena Drape Top because it’s an “easy to wear” piece that somehow looks “effortlessly elegant” while feeling genuinely comfortable. The fabric gets constant praise for being “buttery soft,” light and fluid (but “not flimsy”), and the cut is repeatedly described as flattering—especially the drape that skims the body without looking “baggy and daggy.” Many wear it as a smart set with the matching Nomad/wide-leg pants or under a blazer for work, and a smaller but recurring note is that some shoppers (especially taller/long-torso) find the front a bit short and adjust by sizing up or pairing with high-waisted bottoms.

What Customers Love Most

  • Buttery-soft, comfortable fabric that feels good against the skin
  • Flattering drape that “falls beautifully” and skims without clinging
  • Versatility: “dress up or down” for work, casual, dinner, and travel
  • Neckline/crossover that “doesn’t gape” and feels modest/not too plunging
  • Length/hem design that often sits nicely at the waist so “no need to tuck in” (works especially well with high-waisted pants)

Customers Say These Are Perfect For

  • Workwear (especially under a blazer/jacket) and office-to-dinner days
  • Travel and flights (“travel wardrobe,” “great for overseas travel,” “plane outfit”)
  • Pairing with wide-leg or Nomad pants as a matching set (often mistaken for a jumpsuit)
  • Curvy or busty shoppers wanting coverage without feeling “baggy” (DD/EE cups and larger busts mention it specifically)
  • High-waisted pants/skirts when you want a polished silhouette without tucking

Customer Feedback on Quality

  • Fabric is frequently described as “beautiful quality,” “not flimsy,” and “much thicker than I expected” (with one note that thicker fabric may be less ideal in humid climates)
  • Wash-and-wear practicality comes up often: “washes well,” “crease proof,” and “no ironing required,” though a smaller group reports creasing/wrinkles can be “tricky” to remove
  • Construction details customers notice: crossover/neckline “doesn’t gape” (some mention a “little stitch holding it together”), elastic hem that helps it sit at the waist, and bra-strap/shoulder coverage

Customer Fit Feedback

Most customers report: mostly true to size, with mixed sizing due to preferred drape and front length

A large share say “true to size” and recommend ordering usual Australian sizing (e.g., M = AU 12), but a noticeable group either sized down because the top feels “very roomy” (some exchanged M for S), or sized up for a more relaxed drape/extra front length and belly coverage (especially taller/long-torso or larger bust). Multiple reviewers mention the front can sit at/above the waist (“belly button length” for some) and may show belly when reaching up; pairing with high-waisted bottoms or going up a size helps. Busty shoppers repeatedly note good coverage and that it suits a larger bust without gaping; several also highlight “arm holes are not too big” and shoulder/strap coverage that can hide bra straps.

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 how polished it looks under a jacket.”"
  • "“Comfortable, wash well and don't need ironing… people think it's a jumpsuit.”"

Shop the Look

Such a figure flattering too for big bust. And silky smooth, drapery fabric. The cherry colour is also a great tone, not a glaring red that washes out us with cooler colour palette.

Love these tops so much I have them in cherry, white, palmano and black! Easy to wear casual, dress. Up or down - move from the office to coffee, lunch or add an accessory for dinner.

Athena Drape Top - Cerise
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.

Athena Drape Top - Cerise
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.

    A gem of a colour and a perfect fit.

    Beautiful colour and so comfortable to wear! I'm a 14F in the bust and the large size fits just right- not too tight or loose.
