Reviews Summary

Shoppers keep calling the Athena Drape Top their “new favourite” because it nails that rare mix of comfort and looking instantly styled. The fabric is repeatedly described as “buttery soft” and “not flimsy,” while the crossover drape sits in a way that feels modest, doesn’t gape, and flatters different bust sizes. Most wear it on repeat for travel and everyday outfits—especially with high-waisted pants or the matching wide-leg set—though taller/long-torso customers often wish for a little more length at the front.

What Customers Love Most

  • Buttery-soft, silky feel fabric that’s comfortable against the skin
  • Flattering drape/crossover cut that “falls beautifully” and looks elegant without trying
  • Versatility: easy to dress up or down (work, dinner, casual weekends)
  • No-gape/secure neckline that stays put at the chest and cleavage
  • Waist-skimming length/hem that looks finished without needing to tuck in (great with high-waisted bottoms)

Customers Say These Are Perfect For

  • Travel days and flights (easy, comfy, often described as a “travel wardrobe” staple)
  • Workwear under a blazer/jacket or with tailored pants for a smart look
  • Dressing up jeans for an elevated casual outfit
  • People wanting a flattering top that “hides lumps and bumps” without looking “baggy and daggy”
  • Building a matching set with the brand’s wide-leg/straight-leg pants (many say it looks like a jumpsuit or pant suit)

Customer Feedback on Quality

  • Fabric described as “not flimsy” and even “much thicker than I expected - really good quality” while still draping well
  • Holds up to real-life wear: multiple comments about washing well and being “crease proof”/“don’t need ironing” (with a small minority reporting creasing)
  • Construction details customers notice: a small stitch that prevents gaping and armholes/straps that cover bra straps and don’t sag

Customer Fit Feedback

Most customers report: mostly true to size, with a notable minority sizing up for extra length/drape (especially taller or long-torso customers)

Many reviewers say it’s “true to size” (e.g., M = AU 12; petite buyers around 153–155 cm often report it sits perfectly at the waist/hips). A recurring theme is that the front can sit a little high/short—taller or long-bodied customers mention it being “a bit short” or riding up when arms lift—so some recommend going up a size for a more relaxed drape and a touch more length. The cut is frequently praised for bust friendliness (“suits my large bust,” “not clingy on my DD bust,” “size 14 EE cup”), and armholes/shoulders get positive notes for coverage and not sagging under the arms.

What Customers Say

  • "“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.”"
  • "“Comfortable, wash well and don't need ironing.”"

Frequently Asked Questions

Real answers based on customer reviews

Fit & Sizing

Does the Athena Drape Top run true to size, or should I size up/down?

Most reviewers say it’s true to size (including comments like “order your usual size” and AU 12 = M), but a noticeable group sized up for a looser drape or more tummy/length coverage. Several customers also exchanged sizes (e.g., M to S or needing L when usually a 12) and said the process was easy. If you’re between sizes or want extra length/relaxed fit, many recommend going up one size.

Based on 26 customer reviews
Is it short in the front—will it cover my tummy if I’m tall or long-bodied?

A recurring theme is that the top sits around the waist/hip on shorter customers but can feel short on taller or long-torso bodies, with some noting belly exposure when arms are raised. Multiple reviewers said sizing up helped with the length and how it sits at the front. If you prefer more belly coverage, many suggest pairing it with high-waisted bottoms.

Based on 17 customer reviews
Is this top good for a bigger bust (DD/E cup and up)?

Reviewers with larger busts repeatedly say it’s very flattering and provides great coverage without being clingy. Examples include size 14 with an E/EE cup and DD bust wearers who felt it sat well and didn’t pull or gape. A few bustier customers sized up for extra ease, but still loved the drape and fit.

Based on 10 customer reviews
Do the straps/armholes cover bra straps, and are the armholes too big?

Several reviews call out that bra straps don’t show and that the armholes are well designed (not too big, no sagging, and comfortable under the arms). People mention it sits nicely at the shoulders and offers good around-the-arm coverage. This makes it feel more secure and “polished” than many sleeveless tops.

Based on 8 customer reviews
Is the hem elastic/non-tuckable, and will it ride up?

Several reviewers love that the hem sits at the waist so they don’t have to tuck it in, and some mention an elastic hem specifically. However, a few customers say the hem can ride up (especially when lifting arms) and that it’s best with high-waisted pants or layering if that bothers you. If you prefer longer, looser hems, sizing up may help.

Based on 6 customer reviews

Comfort

Does the neckline gape or feel too low at the cleavage?

Many customers specifically praise that it “doesn’t gape,” even when leaning over, and that it feels secure/modest without needing a singlet underneath. Reviewers mention a discreet front stitch/crossover detail that helps the drape stay in place. This is repeatedly highlighted as a key design win compared to other wrap-style tops.

Based on 14 customer reviews
Is it too warm for hot or humid weather?

While many call it light and comfortable, a few reviewers note the fabric is thicker than expected and one specifically says it’s not ideal in humid climates. People often describe it as great for layering under jackets and for “shoulder seasons.” If you run hot or live in a very humid area, you may prefer it for cooler days or air-conditioned settings.

Style & Versatility

Is it flattering—does it hide lumps, bumps, or tummy without looking baggy?

A large share of reviewers describe the cut as “super flattering,” noting it disguises tummy and “lumps and bumps” while still looking polished rather than oversized. Customers like how it skims the body and creates a classy silhouette for work or going out. Several also mention it looks slimming because of the drape.

Based on 14 customer reviews
Can I wear it for both work and casual outfits?

Reviewers frequently mention wearing it to the office under a blazer/jacket and also styling it casually with jeans, shorts, skirts, or sneakers. Many describe it as an “easy to wear” staple that transitions from work to dinner/drinks with a change of accessories. It’s repeatedly praised for looking dressy while still feeling comfortable.

Based on 16 customer reviews
Does it work well with high-waisted or wide-leg pants (like the matching Nomad pants)?

A strong pattern in reviews is pairing it with the brand’s wide-leg pants for a coordinated set; multiple people say the combo looks like a jumpsuit or “pant suit.” Customers like that the hem sits nicely at the waist for high-waisted bottoms and that it looks especially polished together. Many bought multiple colours after wearing it as a set.

Based on 12 customer reviews

Material & Quality

What does the fabric feel like—soft, thick, flimsy, see-through?

Customers consistently describe the fabric as very soft/buttery and luxurious, with a fluid drape that still feels quality rather than flimsy. At least a few reviewers note it’s thicker than expected, and one specifically says the fabric isn’t see-through. Overall, feedback points to a soft, substantial knit with a smooth fall.

Based on 18 customer reviews

Performance

Is it suitable for travel—does it pack well and resist creases?

Many reviewers bought it specifically for travel and say it’s comfortable for flights and great as a travel “go-to.” Several mention it doesn’t need ironing/feels crease-proof, though one reviewer found their top creased badly and docked a star for that. Net takeaway: most find it travel-friendly, but if you’re sensitive to creasing, results may vary.

Based on 12 customer reviews

Care & Maintenance

How does it hold up after washing—does it wash well?

A small number of reviewers mention it washes well and stays easy-care, including not needing ironing. Others hadn’t washed it yet but planned to treat it gently to extend its life. Overall feedback leans positive on easy maintenance, but detailed long-term wear reports are less common than fit/fabric comments.

Value

If I get the size wrong, is the exchange/return process straightforward?

Multiple customers mention needing to exchange sizes (or return and repurchase) and say the process was “super easy,” friendly, and well communicated, with some calling out paid return postage. Several people said it took a couple of tries to nail sizing but customer service made it stress-free. This is a recurring positive point alongside the product itself.

    Stylish top that fits beautifully

    This is the 2nd Athena drape top I have purchased and I just love the cut and fit, it suits my body shape perfectly. I would normally buy size 12-14 in a top so purchased the Medium and it is just right.

    The colour is glorious and I have so many things I can wear it with - love it!

    BUT too short at front - if you are a D cup or more, this top will highlight your belly.
