The Buttermilk Scarf Coat
MADE TO FIT YOU:
Leave your sizing notes at checkout — we’ll confirm your perfect fit before it ships.
A coat that wraps you in quiet warmth—like cream poured over cold stone.
The Buttermilk Scarf Coat blends asymmetry and softness in a silhouette designed for fluid layering and all-day elegance. Handcrafted from double-faced wool in a pale yellow cream, it offers warmth without weight—structured, yet gentle to the touch.
An asymmetrical placket adds depth and drape, while the detachable scarf collar becomes a statement of its own—layered or swept off the shoulders like a shawl. Designed for effortless movement and styled with versatility in mind, it’s a piece you’ll return to year after year.

The Aelse
Difference
Every Aelse piece is created in small batches — shaped by careful hands, scarce fabrics, and techniques that honor where they come from. We make clothing that stays with you through shifting seasons, restless cities, and the many versions of you.
Why We Make This Way
Longevity before novelty
Aelse is not priced for impulse. It is priced for women who choose with intention.
Pieces that learn you
Leather that softens, knits that settle, fabrics that remember your touch. A piece becomes yours because it stays long enough to hold your story.
Minimal waste,
meaningful production
Some pieces are crafted on demand. This lowers excess, avoids landfill cycles, and protects the integrity of our makers.
Aelse is made for women who move — through cities, seasons, and selves — and choose clothing that moves with them.
Women who repair what they love. Who build wardrobes with memory. Who understand that longevity is its own kind of luxury.
What you can expect
A considered timeline
Because our pieces are made slowly, some orders may take a little longer. A few weeks now means years of wear later.
Small-batch quality
We work with ateliers, cultural partners, and independent makers who specialize in long-lasting craft.
A fit made for you
Share your measurements at checkout — we tailor our recommendations to reduce returns and ensure a piece you’ll keep.
Small batches. Scarce fabrics.
Scarcity with honesty
When fabrics and materials run out, we don’t replace them. Some pieces won’t return.

We ship almost everywhere.
Our small-batch pieces and artisan finds travel safely across continents — from our hands to your home. If your country isn’t listed at checkout, please reach out via chat or our contact form and we’ll make it happen.
Good things take time.
In-stock pieces typically arrive within 5–10 business days. Made-to-order garments and artisan items may take longer — up to 21 days — and each piece’s timeline is listed on its product page.
Because our work comes from different makers around the world, your order may arrive in separate packages, each dispatched as soon as it’s ready.
If timing matters, message us anytime. We’ll always be transparent and help guide you.
Thoughtful fit is part of thoughtful service.
To help ensure your piece fits beautifully, add your bust, waist, hips, height, weight, and any notes (like “prefer oversized” or “one size up on the bomber”) in the cart drawer or cart page before checkout.
Our team reviews every detail before shipment — because confidence should never need adjustment.
