Knit Base Layer Separates

Q: What is your return policy?

Made slowly, handled with care. At Aelse, every piece is crafted to stay — chosen with intention, meant to be worn deeply and loved for years. But if something isn’t quite right, we promise to make it right. You can access our return policy here. You may reach us at hello@aelse.shop .

Q: Do you ship internationally?

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.

Q: How long will it take to get my orders?

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. [View Full Shipping Policy →]

Q: Questions about sizing?

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.

Description

Turtleneck Top & Straight Knit Trouser in Dark Grey.

A second skin. The kind of knit that holds you gently and lets you forget it’s there. Warm. Fluid. Slightly sculpting. Breathable.

Fabric Composition

19.1% sheep wool
76.6% lyocell
4.3% spandex

Merino wool provides warmth, wicking, and a skin-friendly texture.
Lyocell adds fluid drape and moisture absorption without heaviness.
Spandex allows stretch and recovery, preventing deformation over long wear.
The result is balanced: soft yet structured, elastic without losing shape, and temperature-regulating for all-season wear. The knit resists wrinkling and maintains a smooth, clean line throughout the day.

The Top

A refined half-high neckline offers warmth while maintaining breathability.
It frames the neck without overwhelming it. The cut is close-fitting but not restrictive — supportive without compression.

How It Feels

The outfit you forget to change out of. It carries you through shifting temperatures, long conversations, early mornings, and unplanned evenings. It belongs under coats. Under blazers. Under everything. And when you take off the layers, it stands on its own. A foundation for women who move with intention.

Discover Our Materials

We choose every fabric with care—from wild-roaming alpaca and ethically sourced cashmere to organic linen, silk, and ramie, small-batch leather crafted by heritage artisans, and slow beauty formulas made with pure, natural botanicals. Natural when possible, functional when needed—always made to last, feel good, and do good.

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.

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.

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.
