MoviePass is coming back. Here are 8 comfortable looks to wear for a night out at the movies

How to look stylish, but be comfortable

MoviePass has returned — the popular subscription service that lets you watch the movie you want in the theater you want is back. This means movie night is no longer limited to your couch. You can enjoy all the latest releases as they were meant to be seen: on the big screen. It also means you have to get a little more dressed up than just Crocs and a onesie. How do you look chic and stylish at the movies without sacrificing comfort? Here are a few ideas.

In this article: Mango Women's Linen Jogger Trousers, Women's Simply Vera Vera Wang Ruched Open-Front Cardigan and Birkenstock Honnef Low Suede Leather

What is MoviePass?

MoviePass is the third-party subscription service that gives moviegoers the best bang for their buck. In fact, it gave audiences such a great deal that the company went bankrupt. Now, MoviePass is back with tiered pricing and negotiated partnerships with movie theaters. The changes are predicted to help both MoviePass and movie theaters thrive. 

Three key considerations for movie attire

For many, it may be a couple of years since you’ve been in a movie theater. There are three things you want to remember when choosing a look for the occasion.

  • Comfort is key: Going to the movies is a casual event. You want your clothes to both look and feel comfortable. 
  • Style is still important: Your clothes can be comfortable without looking like you’re at a sleepover. When the lights come up, you might be ready for a drink or a bite to eat. Don’t let your clothing limit your evening’s adventures.
  • It can get chilly: Even if the thermostat isn’t set in the 60s, sitting still for 120 minutes can make you feel a little chilly. You probably don’t need a winter coat, but an extra layer that can be removed (if needed) is always a good idea.
