Need help styling a winter wedding outfit for a petite/chubby girl 😭💌

My best friend’s big brother is getting married in December this year, so I’m trying to decide my main wedding outfit early.

My body type/details:

• Height: 5’1
• Body type: chubby/plus size currently
• I carry more weight around my stomach and arms
• I usually avoid outfits that make me look shorter or wider
• Winter weddings suit deeper/richer colours on me more than pastels

The kind of outfit I’m thinking about:

• velvet Anarkali suit with a fitted upper body and flared bottom
• Kashmiri-style velvet suit with detailed embroidery around sleeves/neck
• full sleeves or elbow sleeves because sleeveless usually doesn’t suit me
• V neck or slightly deeper necklines instead of closed necks
• floor-length silhouette because shorter kurtas cut my height badly
• not too much cancan because it makes me look bulky
• elegant embroidery/work instead of heavy mirror work

The colours I’m considering:

• emerald green
• navy blue
• plum/wine
• chocolate brown
• BLACK (I want alternatives to maroon because everyone wears maroon 😭)

Footwear:
I’m thinking nude/golden block/ platform heels (which I have seen alia wearing alot) around 3-4 inches because stilettos are impossible for me to survive in during weddings 💀

Jewellery ideas I need help with:

• chandbalis vs jhumkas?
• silver vs gold jewellery with velvet?
• should I wear a necklace or keep only statement earrings?

Hair/makeup vibe:
Soft curls or 90s blowout? smokey eyes?

I attached some inspo pics that match the vibe I’m going for. Most Pinterest outfits are either too plain or way too heavily styled, and I want something balanced and flattering for my height/body type.

Please suggest silhouettes, colours, dupatta draping styles, jewellery, footwear or even celebrity inspo 😭💌

Hi everyone,

I’m a BA LL.B (Hons) graduate from National Law University(2025) and currently working as a Legal Associate since May 2025. I’m actively looking to transition into a full-time in-house legal role (Delhi/NCR or remote preferred, but open to relocating for the right opportunity).

Over the past year, I’ve built hands-on experience in:

• Drafting and reviewing commercial contracts (NDAs, MSAs, vendor agreements, licensing agreements)
• Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) and working with tools like Lexion, SirionLabs, DocuSign, etc.
• Risk assessment and contract clause analysis (indemnity, liability, confidentiality, IP ownership)
• Supporting cross-functional teams (sales, procurement, finance, compliance)
• Corporate compliance and regulatory research (Companies Act, FEMA, SEBI, DPDP Act, IT Act)
• IP and technology-related agreements and advisory

I’ve also interned with law firms and in-house teams, where I worked on due diligence, transaction documentation, SaaS agreements, and internal policy drafting.

At this point, I’m very clear that I do not want to continue in litigation and see my long-term career strictly in in-house legal roles, particularly in contracts, tech/IP, and compliance.

I’m genuinely motivated to grow in this space and would really appreciate any leads, referrals, or guidance.

Thanks in advance!
