What should I wear to Switzerland in winter?

Question

it's my first winter vacation and i have no idea what to wear. im from a tropical country and its pretty much warm all the time, so i really have no idea what clothes to get for the trip. what kind of pants should i wear? shoes? tops? please help! thanks!

Answer 1

layering system is the best. there are some warmer places (ticino) and right now it is too warm for switzerland. so just be ready for all temperatures between +20 to -10 C° and you should be fine.

the houses, shops etc. are usually cozy and warm!

Answer 2

Long Pants, a thick winter coat, have long underwear ready and warm boots. Jeans, Sweaters that's it. Gloves and a scarf. Maybe a tuque for your head.

Answer 3

Don't forget waterproof shoes,so you can walkin snow. Also, fleece sweaters as it can keep you warm.

I typically use a good coat (feathered). Gloves and head cover lined with fleece too. Some time I would use thermal shirts under heavy coats to keep my body temp regulated.
