Add grey jeans to your ever-growing list of denim trends worth trying, stat! We've been seeing lots of fashion girlies ditching classic blue, black and white jeans in favour of this versatile hue – and it makes sense why. The colour is neutral enough that it works with almost any piece in your closet, while giving the look a style-forward edge that calls to mind the grunge aesthetic of the ’90s.
Grey jeans have the potential to become a key piece in your year-round wardrobe. They don’t steal the spotlight – but they do instantly add dimension to a look. Whether you want to dress minimally or go full maximalist, you never fall into a rut with grey jeans. So be it stone grey, steel grey or another shade entirely, here’s how we’ll be styling our grey jeans for the year ahead.

Baggy grey jeans and a fitted top
Sometimes, the simplest look is also the coolest. With a pair of loose-fitting grey jeans, all you really need to complete the look is a simple tank top or T-shirt that continues the casual vibe. A pair of black boots is just the hint of attitude the look needs. Layer a slouchy leather jacket over the top, et voila.

Grey barrel jeans with a button-down shirt
Barrel jeans are still very much on trend despite the rise of skinny jeans. Wear them in grey with heels for a more formal approach – or sneakers if it’s casual Friday – then keep the It girl vibes going with a white shirt. It’s a cool and easy-to-replicate outfit idea for the office.

Grey jeans with a matching top
For a surprisingly put-together look that works in the office, out with friends for drinks and everywhere in between, you can pair wide-leg jeans with a coordinated vest or top for a defined silhouette. (Add a matching jacket or turtleneck underneath in cooler temperatures.) Dressy accessories like a structured bag and pointy heels add an elegant final touch, or go with trainers if you want a more casual outfit.

Denim gets a spring update.

Grey low-waist jeans with a sequin top
The subtle use of sequins, feathers, metallics and faux fur has quietly become a common trend among fashion pros. It adds a touch of fantasy and glamour to any outfit, and grey jeans are the perfect neutral base to let those luxurious details really shine.

Washed-out grey jeans with a blazer
Light, dark and washed-out grey jeans are all trending, but we find the latter is the easiest for monochromatic dressing. Find a blazer that matches any hue in the jeans for a sophisticated, fashion-forward look.

Grey jeans with colourful accessories
Even more than classic blue jeans, grey denim is ideal for strategic pops of colour. Whether that comes in the form of a red bag or bright sneakers, you can really play here. Polished pieces (straight-leg jeans, a simple white tee, etc.) will let a personality purse shine even more.

Grey jeans and a cosy knit
For a chic winter outfit, the combo of grey pants and a stylish sweater is unmatched. You can play with the silhouette here – like skinny jeans with an oversized knit or a cropped cardigan with a relaxed fit, for example – just keep the accessories minimal.

Grey jeans and a sweatshirt
The combo of grey jeans and a sweatshirt can look put-together – just look to Rihanna for proof. The star added personality to her baggy jeans and zip-up hoodie with a headscarf, luxe accessories and plenty of stacked jewellery. They give the otherwise low-key look a bit of styled polish.
