How do I say that you are wearing cold clothes?

In Portuguese there is the word

de

Agasalhado which is used for people who are wearing clothes for cold seasons.

What is an equivalent word which exactly can be used as a name?

“Clothed” felt right, although not sure about meaning it is wearing cold clothes or just opposite of naked.

Have you encountered the expression for this? In the UK we often use the phrase wrap (sb) up :

wrap (sb) up — phrasal verb with wrap
to
dress in warm clothes, or to dress someone in warm clothes: Wrap

  • Up well – it’s cold outside.

Cambridge Dictionary

You can also use:

  • Make sure that you are wrapped up well.
  • Make sure you are well wrapped up in your business. If not make sure you’re going to be able to leave the office feeling well wrapped up.
  • I am just here waiting for you to get your head twisted. Stand still for a minute.

Is it usually children that are bought by parents which are “wrapped up”? Husbands come the poor second. Is it better to be a

wife this way?
