Narrative:

Windy and snowy night at ZZZ. Boarded passengers and closed door. Got deiced and anti-iced at gate. Deicers couldn't deice our radome since the deicing truck couldn't get to the front of the aircraft. Deicer said they'd finish the deicing [and] spray the radome upon our push into the alley. We called for push. Ramp tower cleared us to push. To the best of my knowledge; the ramp controller's exact words were; ''cleared to push.'' the clearance was without qualification or further detail. Simply; 'cleared to push.' I repeated same to our ground crew. We got pushed into the snowy alley. After resetting brakes; I asked ground crew to stay on interphone for a moment until I could re-establish radio contact with deicer (that is; so as to ask him if he needed engines off for the radome deicing). I believe the deicer's reply was that it didn't matter.I then cleared our ground crew to disconnect interphone; got pin and salute; etc. We started engines and deicer deiced our radome. Upon receipt of deicer's final report; and ground crew now gone; I was now able to toggle up comm 2 audio (ramp tower). Our aircraft status was: stationary; parking brake parked; both engines running; and deicing and anti-icing fully completed. About the first thing I heard over comm 2 was someone talking about having hit something.I initially thought it was a deicing truck (not ours; of course) somewhere out on the ramp that was discussing having hit something; but it turned out that there was now a [company] 737 off our right wing - at our 3:30 position. He was telling us that as he had been taxiing forward (from a position behind us); the leading edge of his left wingtip (winglet) had contacted the aft edge of the winglet on our right wingtip.we remained parked - did not move - and called for [company] aircraft maintenance to come out and inspect us. They came out and confirmed the aforementioned contact and confirmed some visible damage - but also said that our current state was safe: ''ok to get tugged back to the gate.'' we called for a tug and crew to tug us back to a gate. Due to the 28-knot winds gently buffeting our aircraft; we had not been aware of wingtip contact. There had been no jolt or bump perceptible to us (or; if there was a slight bump or jolt; it had been disguised by the wind.). Normal deplaning of passengers.
