Lights, camera, action! There’s something truly magical about a day at the cinema —grabbing your popcorn, finding the perfect seat, and losing yourself in a world of adventure, drama, or laughter. And now, that experience is about to get even better at Queensgate Shopping Centre with the grand arrival of ODEON Cinema this autumn!

As we prepare to roll out the red carpet, let’s talk about how you can make your movie day truly special! You can achieve this by dressing comfortably with a playful twist inspired by your favourite movie characters.

A trip to the cinema is the perfect excuse to be a bit different with your fashion. While comfort is key (especially for those extra-long blockbusters), why not channel the spirit of your favourite movie characters with your outfit?

Here are some fun, comfy ideas to make your movie day memorable:

Inside Out 2: Joy

Dress like your inner emotion from Inside Out. If you are going with a group of friends you can all pick a different emotion.

This cosy movie-day outfit is a subtle take on Joy’s signature look from Inside Out. Start with a sunny yellow oversized

hoodie from H&M, reflecting Joy’s bright and cheerful demeanor. Pair it with comfy chocolate flared leggings from Primark’s Rita Ora for a relaxed yet stylish vibe, perfect for lounging in comfy cinema seats. Slip into a pair of sneakers with a pop of yellow and white to keep the playful energy going, while also ensuring all-day comfort.

Complete the outfit with a simple black slouchy bag to carry all your snacks in, my favourite are pringles (less noise when eating the whole tube).
