Customer Reviews
Reviews Summary
Customers keep describing the Athena Drape Top as the piece they reach for when they want to feel comfortable but look “smart” and put-together. The modal-like fabric is repeatedly called “buttery soft” and “not flimsy,” with a drape that flatters without feeling baggy—especially appreciated for tummy coverage and bust-friendly fit. Many buy multiple colours and wear it everywhere from work under a blazer to travel days with matching wide-leg pants, with the main caveat being that some (especially taller or long-torso shoppers) wish it were a little longer in the front.
What Customers Love Most
- Buttery-soft, silky-feel fabric that’s comfortable against the skin
- Drapes/falls beautifully and “hangs perfectly” without looking bulky
- Flattering cut that “hides lumps and bumps” and feels feminine/classy
- Versatility: easy to dress up or down (work, dinner, casual, travel)
- No-gape crossover/V-neck that stays modest and doesn’t need constant adjusting
Customers Say These Are Perfect For
- Workwear under a blazer/jacket (office to dinner)
- Travel days and holidays (easy “wash & wear” packing piece)
- Pairing with wide-leg pants/Nomad pants for a matching set that looks like a jumpsuit
- Curvy or busty shoppers wanting coverage without feeling “baggy and daggy”
- Warm-weather outfits where you want to feel “cool on hot summer days” while still looking polished
Customer Feedback on Quality
- Fabric described as “beautiful quality,” “not flimsy,” and even “much thicker than I expected” while still draping well
- Multiple mentions of easy care: “washes well,” “wash & wear,” “no ironing required,” and “crease proof” (though a smaller group report creasing/wrinkles can be tricky to remove)
- Construction details customers notice: a “little stitch holding it together” to prevent gaping, plus an elastic hem that helps it sit at the waist without tucking
Customer Fit Feedback
Many reviewers say “true to size” and recommend ordering your usual AU size, but there’s a noticeable split: some exchanged for a smaller size because the top is “very roomy,” while others sized up specifically to get a more relaxed drape, more room through the bust/arms, or a bit more front length. Repeated callouts: flattering on larger busts (DD/EE cups mentioned), armholes/shoulders provide good coverage, and the back is slightly longer; the most common fit complaint is that the front can sit high/feel a little short—especially for taller or long-torso shoppers—making high-waisted pants/skirts a popular pairing.
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.”"
- "“I have these both in navy… people think it’s a jumpsuit. Comfortable, wash well and don’t need ironing.”"
Shop the Look
Absolutely love the Athena Drop top! I now need them in all the colours!!!
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.
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.
I love how it drapes. 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. I love how polished it looks under a jacket. I love that it can be worn as a simple elegant piece paired with the pants
Super comfortable and beautiful soft fabric. Very flattering draping. Can be worn as a casual top, or styled up for a dressier look. Love it!
This top is fantastic! The quality & feel of the fabric is amazing. So good that I am ordering another in white.
Everyone needs this beautiful top. Im 155cm tall and this top sits perfectly at my waist and drapes lower at the back. I'm usually a 12 but the small fits perfectly. It's so very soft and light and the perfect layering top. I'm pleased I ordered it in white too.
bought the top with the trousers! What a stunning outfit and full approval from the husband!
I have several of the Athena drape tops and lop this new colour mulberry. I bouight the matching pants and can't wait to wear them both!
This top takes me from work to out for drinks/dinner. I have worn it with the matching wide leg pant & also jeans - it rocks!
