Alen Wool Jacket
Crafted For You By 27 September
ABOUT THE PIECE
The Alen Wool Jacket continues the story of Âme Dare — a piece born from the wish to carry a little light into winter.
Tailored from 100% premium Italian virgin wool in an elegant milky shade, it holds the warmth of real craftsmanship and the quiet confidence of timeless design. Its shorter silhouette moves easily, without losing the refined structure and softness that run through everything we make.
This is the jacket for a capsule wardrobe — the piece that layers naturally from autumn through winter and into early spring, standing in for a long coat when you want less bulk and the same sense of ease.
Season
Autumn through winter and into early spring. Layer it over a knit as temperatures drop, or wear it alone on milder days.

DETAILS & CARE
Handcrafted in Warsaw, Poland
Our garments are crafted from premium-quality Italian wool — a natural, luxurious fibre known for its softness, durability and ability to regulate temperature. To preserve the beauty and structure of your piece for years to come, we recommend the following.
Dry clean only
Wool is delicate and should be entrusted to professional cleaning services to avoid shrinkage or distortion.
Air between wears
Allow your jacket to breathe between uses. Hang it in a well-ventilated space away from direct sunlight.
Store mindfully
Use a wide wooden or padded hanger to maintain shape. During the off-season, store in a breathable garment bag — never plastic.
Avoid frequent cleaning
Italian wool doesn't require constant washing. Spot-clean minor marks gently with a damp cloth.
Keep away from heat and friction
Avoid placing the jacket near radiators or rough surfaces that can cause pilling.
Wool is a living material — the better you treat it, the longer it stays timeless.
FAQ
What size should I choose?
Alen runs true to size — match your usual jacket size to the bust, waist and hip ranges in the Size Guide. If you're between two sizes, we'd size up so you can layer a knit underneath.
Is Alen warm enough for winter?
Yes, worn as part of a layering system. In colder temperatures it works best over a knit or with additional layers underneath — it's a jacket built for movement, not a heavy winter coat on its own.
How is it different from a long coat like Zoye?
Alen is cut shorter, at the hip, for a lighter, more everyday feel. It's the piece you reach for when you want the warmth and quality of Italian wool without the weight or formality of a full-length coat.
What does the fabric feel like?
100% virgin wool, finished to be soft rather than coarse, with a cupro-elastane lining that moves with you. Most people find it comfortable over a shirt or knit.
Is it for everyday wear or more of an occasion piece?
Everyday, by design. Alen was built for capsule wardrobes and minimalist styling — the jacket you can wear on repeat across autumn, winter and early spring.
Will the colour mark easily?
The milky shade is lighter than our black pieces, so we'd recommend a little extra care — treat any mark promptly and take it to a professional cleaner rather than attempting to spot-clean at home.
Does it pill?
Some pilling under the arms or where a bag strap sits is normal for any natural wool fibre — it isn't a fault. A cashmere comb removes it gently; details are in our care guide.
What fabric is used?
100% premium Italian virgin wool, sourced from a heritage mill in the heart of Italy.
Where is it made?
Alen is handcrafted in Warsaw, Poland.
How should I care for it?
We recommend professional dry cleaning to preserve the fabric's texture and structure. Every piece comes with a care card to help you maintain its quality over time.

Can I return it if the size isn't right?
Yes — you have 14 days to change your mind, no reason needed, and we refund the price along with standard delivery. Return postage is yours. Try it on as you would in a fitting room.
