I used to plan DC screenings for big movies and I can tell you that everyone just wears their work clothes. Every once in awhile someone would show up all dressed up and they would look very out of place. So I recommend wearing a nice version of what you wear to work -- or if you work in a casual office, a nice day dress and heels.

If it is Star Wars you either wear a Princess Leia inspired white dress complete with donut hair or if you are feeling daring you dress like Queen Amadala with make up.

Dress like Deep Throat and rock a sexy trench coat

What time does it start? That will determine how I answer.

Wear anything. I used to go to film premieres in London a lot because of the industry I worked in. When I turned up in cargo pants and a fleece I had the most attention ever, because everyone thought I was a big insider who didn't give a sh*t. But I was just a small insider, who didn't give a sh*t.

Work clothes for when you're doing a presentation in front of the hottest guy in the office.

Ohh I think that movie will be good about Ben Bradlee and Katherine Graham back when the Washington post was a super powerhouse. I'd wear a dress and boots - like dinner out somewhere nice. By the way. I've been to these types of events. You will be lucky if you get a glimpse of the stars. Have fun

Work clothes or “Sunday best” (depending on your culture).

No, The Post. So there will be real Hollywood stars there, but it is in fact a movie about a newspaper.

But I just looked up I, Tonya, and it looks amazing!

Blah screw boring D.C. People. Wear a cute dress and maybe a fun blazer.

I don't know if it's different in DC but in LA I wear something I'd wear on a nice date night.

OK, for probably the first and last time in my life, I am invited to a real-life, legit, movie premiere. However, I have no idea what appropriate attire is. It's here in DC and it's on a Thursday evening, which I think probably greatly influences the answer. I'm quite sure a floor-length ballgown would be highly inappropriate, but should I just wear fancy work clothes? A cocktail dress? I'm really befuddled!
