ScarfCharcoal Cashmere Roll-neck, Navy Wool Trousers, Navy Wool Overcoat, Black Derby, Grey Wool Scarf. A formal combination for wedding guest in cold weather, with the lightest colour sitting closest to your face.
Wedding guests should dress up without upstaging. Lean formal, choose quieter colours, and let fabric do the talking. Cold weather is about layers you can shed indoors: a knit under an overcoat does more for warmth and polish than one thicker piece. The men's read of this day comes down to a clean silhouette and a quiet palette; the fit does more of the talking than any single piece here.
- Avoid white as the main colour.
- The innermost layer is the one people see; make it a good one.
- A proper collar and a leather shoe carry more formality than any label will.
