Athena Mini- Champagne

its heavier than i expected but honestly that makes it feel expensive

this is a stunning dress and i have had more compliments in it than anything else i own. four rather than five because it is genuinely heavy over a long night, and because it is noticeably shorter in person than the product images suggest

I looked at this in a few colours and the champagne is the one I keep coming back to. It is a warm gold rather than a bright brassy one, which means it works against a tan in summmer and under warm indoor lighting in winter equally well

You cant wear this and feel small. It genuinely changes how you carry yourslef for the night.

i hesitated because a full metal disc dress felt like a lot. What makes it work is the high neck and short sleeves. They balance the shortness and the shine so the whole thing reads as glamorous rather than costume

Stunning under any light.

wore this to a cocktail evening and it was easily the most talked about thing there

It is lined underneath so the metal never touches your skin.

the short sleeves mean you can wear something this short without feeling exposed

the champagne is warmer than a silver would be, which suits a lot more skin tones.

the way it catches light is actually ridiculous. so many compliments

Beautiful dress. I am five foot nine so it sits shorter on me than it does in the photos.

My boyfriend, who says nothing about clothes ever, commented on this three times.

genuinely lovely dress and id recommend it. Just be aware that the discs can catch on rings and bracelets if you arent careful, and that the metal sits cool against your skin for the first few minutes until it warms up.

The weight of it is what makes it feel high end. It hangs properly rather than floating about

Absolute showstopper of a dress

night photos with flash are where it shines. literally and otherwise

this dress has serious wow factor

the skirt moves so well when you dance. its so fun to wear

the disc skirt has real movement and its genuinely satisfying to wear.

Gorgeous dress though it runs snug through the torso, so go up if you are between sizes.

The lining means none of the metal catches on your skin.

Two hundred felt like a lot for a mini until i put it on. The construction is proper, nothing has come loose after several wears, and it gets a reaction every single time. Cost per wear is already looking veryy reasonable.

Under a flash it looks like its made of actual gold.

for a dress made of metal discs its surprisingly easy to wear for a whole evening

gorgeous but it has weight

Gorgeous, just know its properly short on.

Nothing else in my wardrobe gets a reaction like this dress does when I walk into a room.

Best party dress I own.

Two hundred felt steep for a mini. Three wears in it works out at under seventy dollars a wear, and each one has been an occasion I actually wanted to look good at. Very comfortable with that maths now.

i tried on several sequin & metallic dresses at similar prices before this and none of them came close. The difference is the weight and the way the discs are layered so they move independently rather than sitting flat

You can see the discs are individually attached rather than glued to a backong

with nude heels the leg goes on forever in this.

Short sleeves mean you can wear something this dramatic without feeling exposed all evening.

Photos do not do the shine justice at all.
