13 Winter Wedding Outfit Formulas for Every Budget

6. Wide-Leg Trousers + Sequined Top (Upper-Mid: $300–600)

Wide-leg trousers tailored from wool-blend fabric pair well with a sequined or embellished top for a reception-ready outfit that stays practical in winter. The trousers keep your legs warm and allow movement while the top brings celebratory sparkle. Layer a fitted turtleneck underneath low-sheer sequins for temperature control, or choose a cropped sequined jacket to avoid restricting sleeves. Shoes should have a stable heel—platform block heels or dressy boots work well. This formula is great for guests who dislike dresses but want to match the event’s glamour. Estimated full-outfit cost: $300–600 for high-quality trousers and an embellished top. Renting the sequined piece often makes sense since heavy ornamentation can be pricey; buy the trousers for repeat wear. For diverse sizing, choose trousers with a flexible waistband and length options for petites or tall frames. For Indian celebrations, swap in embroidered palazzo pants and a sequin blouse with a coordinating shawl for warmth that reads festive.
