A simple gray crewneck sweater is a true capsule wardrobe staple, one that transitions effortlessly from winter into spring. It’s also one of the most versatile pieces you can own, working just as well layered under a coat as it does styled on its own with lighter pieces and statement accessories. I’ve been reaching for mine constantly lately, so I put together a few fresh ways to wear it as the seasons shift. In this post, I’m sharing eight gray sweater outfits for spring, inspired by style influencers, to help you reimagine what you already have. And if you don’t own a gray crewneck yet, I’ve linked a few tried-and-true favorites at the bottom of the post.
Gray Sweater Outfits For Spring

We are starting off with a very basic but chic look. I think, because the outfit is pretty simple, it could benefit from a statement bag like this zebra print one. You’ll also notice the white tee layered underneath with creates some dimension to the look.

This is a similar look to the first, but she’s added a trench coat and swapped the boots for loafers. The trench coat she’s wearing here has a plaid lining (it’s this one from Sézane which I own in green and LOVE), but you could wear a plain beige trench like I’ve shown above. This one from Quince is excellent quality for the price.

This is a very cool spring outfit for the office. The addition of the suede jacket just takes this look up a notch. I own this suede jacket from Sézane, but I’ve also link a couple more options below including a more affordable faux suede jacket from Zara that has similar vibes.

This is a new and more trendy way to style a gray sweater – tied around the waist over a shirt. When you’re wearing a loose silhouette like this, tying a sweater around your waist helps give you some shape.

This is the outfit you’ll find me in all spring. It’s easy, effortless, and comfortable, too. For this look, she’s wearing a gray sweater layered over a black tee paired with jeans, flats, and a green suede bag. This outfit works well for transitional weather because you can wear the sweater in the morning when it’s chilly and tie it over the shoulders in the afternoon.

Leather and knitwear are a such a stylish combo! Classic with a little edge. Here she’s styled her gray sweater over a white tee with a leather bomber jacket, black jeans, and black boots. I definitely plan to recreate this look soon!

Gray also pairs so well with shades of white, beige, and tan. Try styling your gray sweater with white or off white bottoms. You can wear either trousers or jeans – whatever you fancy!

I like to think of my blazers as elevated jackets – they don’t have to be fancy! For this look, she styled her gray sweater under a blazer with light wash jeans and some sharp boots. She’s also worn a white shirt under, and the cuffs are showing on the wrists which is a nice touch.
