A limited-edition dress woven from mulberry silk gauze — softly structured yet feather-light, it drapes the body with a translucent, fluid hand. A tonal slip lining is included for comfort and coverage without weighing down the airy silhouette.
The gently sheer texture carries movement and space, made for warmer days and quieter dressing. It speaks in hushed tones.

Materials & Care
Every Aelse piece begins with the material. We work in leather tanned to soften with wear, suede, cashmere, wool and alpaca chosen for the hand, silk, linen and ramie that breathe, and slow beauty made from botanicals. Natural where it can be, considered where it can't — chosen to last and to be kept.
Made to Order Policy
Made-to-order work is created with care, intention, and mutual trust.
If a return is requested, the item must be returned and received in its original condition before a refund is issued. Refunds cannot be processed while an item remains with the client.
To protect the integrity of our custom process, future commissions are offered at our discretion.
Size & Fit Info
Want the perfect fit?
Before checkout, add size info in the cart and enter your bust, waist, hips, height, and weight. We’ll personally review your measurements before shipping to ensure every piece fits beautifully—because when it fits, it flatters. And when it flatters, it lasts.

What women keep telling us
Worn, and not let go of

“The quality and cut is out of this world. I'm always getting compliments.”
Small batches. Scarce fabrics.
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. Clothing that stays with you through shifting seasons, restless cities, and the many versions of you.
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.
For women who move — through cities, seasons, and selves. Who repair what they love, and understand that longevity is its own kind of luxury.
A considered timeline
Because our pieces are made slowly, some orders 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.
Scarcity with honesty
When fabrics and materials run out, we don't replace them. Some pieces won't return.

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.
