The Story

Collette is Alezane's easiest everyday bag — a soft crescent shape that takes its cue from a traveller's vessel, made to move with whoever carries it rather than hold a fixed position on the shoulder.

It's not the boldest piece in the Classique collection, and it was never meant to be. It's the one reached for without thinking — refinement here shows up in the details rather than the silhouette: brushed gold-tone hardware, a matching interior branding patch, and three colours chosen to sit quietly alongside what she already wears.

Details & Care

Leather

The leather on Collette is premium — smooth, lightly milled and soft to the touch from the first time you pick it up. It isn't chosen to develop character over time. It's chosen to feel right immediately, in a shape that moves with you rather than holding a fixed structure.

There's no break-in period. No waiting for it to soften or settle. Collette arrives ready — a soft, supple hand-feel and a shape built to sit comfortably on the shoulder from day one. Edges are finished clean and tonal, matched to the leather colour. The brushed gold-tone hardware is matte rather than high-shine — refined without asking to be noticed.

What's inside

Arranged for the way she actually uses a bag day to day: a soft microsuede lining, one internal zip pocket with a leather window matching the exterior colour, one internal slip pocket sized for a large phone, and a heat-debossed Alezane leather patch inside. Everything has a place. Nothing is there by accident.

Care

Keep away from prolonged direct sunlight, heat, and moisture. Store in the dust bag when not in use. Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth. Apply a quality leather conditioner sparingly if needed.

Authenticity & Presentation

Your piece is not one of many.

Collette First Edition is a considered, limited release — every piece individually recorded, its style and numbered position documented before it leaves us.

Your authenticity card arrives with your bag: not a certificate in the traditional sense, but a record. A quiet acknowledgement that this piece exists, that it is yours, and that it will not be made again in exactly this way. What you are holding is the first edition. That is not marketing language. It is simply true.

Collette arrives fully presented — the Alezane box, tissue paper and authenticity card included. No additional wrapping required, no trip to a gift wrap counter, no moment where the presentation doesn't match the thought you put into choosing it. Not just ordered. Chosen.

Free standard shipping Australia wide on all orders over $150, dispatched within 1-2 days.

✈️ International shipping is available to the US, New Zealand, Canada, Japan, Singapore and Hong Kong.

Three colours. One easy choice.

Some bags ask you to build an outfit around them.

Collette doesn't.

Who Collette Is For

Collette is Alezane's newest Classique bag, and it has one job: to be the bag you reach for first, every day, without having to think about it.

A soft, curved shoulder-bag silhouette in premium leather, finished with brushed gold-tone hardware and the same considered detail as Silene and Celeste before it.

Available in Black, Cream and Milk Chocolate — three colours chosen to work with almost everything already in your wardrobe. It isn't the boldest piece in the collection, and it isn't trying to be.

It's the one that fits into ordinary days — work, errands, coffee, weekends — without asking anything of you

Where the Story Lives

A CREAM STORY

For the bride-to-be

For the moments before “I do” — and the memories that come after.

For the bride-to-be, some of the most meaningful memories are made before the ceremony begins.

Collette in Cream is a beautiful companion for those quieter moments — getting ready, holding the small essentials close and stepping into a new chapter.

And long after the flowers have faded, it can remain part of the life that follows: anniversaries, weekends away and the ordinary days that become a marriage.

WHY ALEZANE FEELS DIFFERENT

frequently asked questions

Further Considerations

Answers to common questions around care, use, and longevity — for those who prefer to explore details at their own pace.

How do Alezane pieces evolve over time?

With use, exposure to light, and handling, the leather will deepen, warm, and soften in tone.

This gradual transformation is known as patina — a natural process that gives each piece its own identity. No two bags age the same, and that uniqueness is part of the design.

Your bag will not fade away — it will grow into itself.

The Patina Promise is our commitment to craftsmanship, longevity, and care.

Every Alezane piece is backed by a 12-month craftsmanship guarantee, covering stitching integrity, hardware function, and construction faults. Beyond this, we offer a lifetime care and repair pathway, because these pieces are made to be lived with, not replaced. (The lifetime care and repair will be quoted prior to works being performed)

Patina is not a flaw — it is the story of the life you give the bag. We stand behind the craft that carries it.

How should I care for my leather piece?

Alezane leather requires respect, not fuss.

Use the bag regularly, avoid prolonged exposure to water or direct heat, and store it in its dust bag when not in use. If the leather becomes dry over time, a light application of a quality leather conditioner is sufficient.

The Patina Care Guide is available on the website — because good leather doesn’t need perfection, only understanding.

Do you offer ongoing care or repair services?

Yes. We offer ongoing care and repair support for Alezane pieces.

While not all services are complimentary, we’re committed to helping owners maintain and extend the life of their bag. Each request is assessed individually so we can recommend the most appropriate next step.

What accompanies an Alezane purchase?

Every Alezane handbag is presented with care and includes a branded dust bag for storage and protection.

Select releases may also include additional items such as care information or Founder’s markings, depending on the edition.
