Model
The model is 5 ft 8.5 in (174 cm) and wears size M in the sweater. The skirt in the photos is a lengthened custom version and is longer than the skirts sold, so use the size chart for the true length.
Care
Professional dry cleaning is recommended. Dry flat in a cool, shaded place. Do not machine wash, wash in water or soak. Keep out of direct sun and do not iron at a high temperature.
Wear the pair as one long line in a single colour, or split them and wear each piece with what you already own.
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
“Warm as a blanket, looks like the runway. Highly recommend.”
“Threw a blazer on at JFK, walked into a client meeting. No wrinkles. New travel uniform.”
“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.
Questions, answered
How do you wear a wool sweater?
Wear this sweater with its matching skirt for a single-colour look, or on its own over jeans or trousers. The neckline sits off the shoulder, and a blazer or long coat on top finishes the outfit.
How to style a long skirt?
Keep the top close to the body or tucked in, so the waist shows and the skirt falls in one long line. Ankle boots, loafers and flats all suit a long hem.
What to wear with a long skirt?
Match the top to the occasion: a fitted knit or a tucked shirt for the day, a sweater with a long coat at night. The off-shoulder sweater in this set pairs with its own long skirt.
What to wear with a long black skirt?
A long black skirt takes almost any colour on top, from cream and camel to more black for one clean column. In Jet, this set pairs the long skirt with a matching off-shoulder sweater.
Is wool warm?
Yes. Wool is a naturally warm fibre, and this set is knitted from 67% sheep wool and 33% nylon, a blend suited to autumn and winter. With the neckline open at the shoulder, a scarf helps on colder days, and tights or boots under the long skirt add cover.
