Dressed Too Nice for a Jacket

Dressed Too Nice for a Jacket is the debut extended play by English singer-songwriter Maisie Peters. It was released on 2 November 2018 through Atlantic Records. Peters had previously released singles independently, which gathered the attention of Atlantic and led to her being signed as a teenager. She worked with songwriters and producers including Fred Gibson, Charlie Russell, Jon Green, Brad Ellis, Two Inch Punch and Joe Rubel, many of whom she went on to work with again in the future.

The EP is primarily a folk-pop project and features songs mostly led by piano and guitar. The lyrical content of Dressed Too Nice for a Jacket revolves around mourning a former relationship and finding it difficult to move on, losing friends to university, finding new love and hoping a former partner is suffering. Tracks on the EP were likened to the works of Taylor Swift, Joni Mitchell and Lily Allen, with Peters' complimented for her "vulnerable, relatable storytelling" at the age of 18.
