What to wear to see Daphne in Dresden? Hello. I will be seeing my first opera in a few months — 'Daphne' by Strauss. According to what I have read about the opera, it was written by Strauss to be performed in the Semperoper *where I will be seeing it*. The performance I am attending is mid-September, 4-7pm on a Sunday. I have no idea what to wear. In my everyday life, I am always a bit more dressy than those around me, so I don't mind being fancy, but I also don't want to look like an ass.

I have a few full length dresses and a few knee length dresses of varying  formal/casualness. I also have some really fancy (but not real) jewelry. I'd love to wear my black stilettos (and am willing to brave the cobblestones to do so)

Thoughts?
