A jacket is a versatile wardrobe staple that easily transitions from stylish everyday looks to more formal outfits. Moreover, it no longer exclusively represents business attire. Whether it’s fitted, cropped, a blazer, or oversized — the choice is personal and depends on the look you're aiming for.

Pair a gray jacket with classic trousers for a more refined and formal outing. For colder days, wool bottoms—whether form-fitting skirts or loose cuts — are perfect. Satin blouses, warm turtlenecks, or basic tees complement the look effortlessly. A statement brooch would be the finishing touch. Dresses also pair beautifully with jackets: from slip dresses to knitted ones, there are plenty of options!

For lovers of oversized styles, consider men's-style jackets or those with shoulder pads. If you want to emphasize your figure, opt for a fitted blazer. ELLE has prepared various options to style gray jackets.
