Platonic date, that is. My wonderful neighbor/friend invited me to be her date to an art opening at the Czech Embassy. Sounds like a big deal deal so I'm thinking I should dress nice without over doing it. Suggestions? I have no chance with this girl but i think the world of her, so I want to look snazzy and appropriate.

Update:
Went dressed in black slacks, my favorite blue shirt, and a black blazer. Didn't look or feel out of place. She wore a chinese style dresS. Was an interesting night, met some nice people and might go karaoking with some people I met there tomorrow - groovy.
Here are awful cell phone pictures:

Pic1 of her is nice. She's hot.

Those pics are weird, one makes her look brunette, the other blond.
Anyway, The best outfit I ever saw a guy wear to an art opening was a purple body suit with thigh high black leather boots completed with black leather trench coat. The gentleman weighed in at ~270 at ~5' 10'".

Your going to go to a fancy event with a schmokin hot Czech and you don't have a chance? Something is most def wrong here. If your nice and respectful enough that she can show you off then you should at LEAST have a chance, unless you are of another persuasion which would explain it all..........
Anyway, More pics when she is dressed up!

That is exactly the first thing I thought of. OP admits he thinks the world of her, has a crush on her, is going out with her, and says he has no chance. Something is wrong here.

Perhaps he could get the tickets to the opening that she couldn't.

She invited me, I didn't invite her. I'M not cool enough to know artists
Why don't I think I have a chance? She's out of my league right now (I'm unemployed! I just quit smoking and gained 10 pounds, and I wasn't svelte to begin with)..And.. Ok.. She doesn't drink at all. I've never made a move on a sober hot chick before...
And, yeah, she's a very cool person and gets me comped to lots of things lately (dancing, even the gym) - it's not like i'm not getting anything out of this.

I didn't say that. I was just answering others. Anyway based on your other girl threads you have a lot to learn about women it seems. Perhaps this one may want to take you under her wing, but I somehow doubt it. If you are getting invited by her to a lot of places as a 'wingman' I wouldn't throw a late night of sex out the window either even if it's not drunk sex. There was an older chick than me at the time (I was 24) that was the office hottie. Since I understand flirting vs pressureing/pushing a joke to far with a lady, we often hung out.
We would meet up with her girlfriends on Wednesday nights and rollerblade...I was the security for what I was worth. We would then all hang out make Boboli pizza and drink red wine. I was just over a divorce so I wasn't looking to date. I did develop a severe crush on her though (read I wanted to do her).
Fridays we would usually end up at a company happy hour, then go off into the night later together and shut places down just dancing and having fun. A quite few times I was shut down after getting signals from her. She'd blame it on the wine the next day and apologize.
Anyway Fridays became, Fridays and Saturdays and maybe hanging out Sunday to go skate. Then I started becoming her 'date' at functions. It was getting confusing, but she started giving me kisses goodnight on the back of my cheek/neck. Pretty stimulating and the first time I got one of those I tried to reciprocate and was told it's just the way she kisses good friends....whatever I was having fun.
One night we are at a bar and she was a bitch to me, totally blew me off while another guy was hitting on her (I didn't mind, I was had just introduced myself as her friend but she sort of pushed me back and said something that the guy laughed about that I still don't know what it was).
I went off to talk to some other friends and hang out and about 1 hour later she comes up and says she was sorry about that and couldn't believe I'd not even try to fight back. I told her we are friends, there is no fighting back, I am not her lover. She called me on that something 'if I wanted to be I should just try'...I got not pissed but aggitated, at told her I have and everytime she shuts me down...she said I should just try again then. I tried and she pulled away...I asked if she had another ride or needed me to take her home.
She said take her home. In the car she started again on the 'I should try if I really wanted to'. She was getting all frisky with herself and I remember I tried to put my hand on her thigh and she was a bitch and put it back on my shifter.
We get to her place and she's all apologizing again and asks me to come in and have a glass of wine with her and talk a bit about 'us and our friendship'.
Anyway it's a lot more of her teasing me into trying something and her not so much pushing me away but doing other things like having to call one of her girlfriends, then checking on something outside (I forget), getting up to play with her dog....
Finally she kneels down in front of me on the couch and says '[my name] you need to kiss me now'. I did, we really kissed and started making out. Next thing is was 'You need to go'.
I was done, got up and she clung on...still kissing and still telling me 'to go'.
I am mad and happy and the same time, she is still all over me...finally she says 'You need to go to my room stupid'.
there we end up eventually naked and she lays down some rules that I can't tell anyone and we are just friends no matter what happens and keeps repeating this at various times and this would be a one time deal we both owed ourselves...then I don't have protection as I wasn't planning on anything....she says there's no way I am doing that without anything and gets pissed about it. I am so freaking confused I just took care of her and she didn't do anything then she gets pissed about me wanting something so I just go to sleep.
The freaking next week she wants to go to Disney together for a 3 day weekend, told me to bring protection. We end up together out on the town that thursday night, I ask her what time should we leave tomorrow and she got pissed that all I wanted was sex.
I left...the she misdialled my parents house and went off on my mom for 2 mins before she realized she called there. I didn't talk to her again.
my little story.

she is definitely fun for someone else. I really follow the rule that no matter how bad she is, someone else will love her.

but a picture is just a brief moment of time.

How into this should I get?
OK, when she was growing up she was a raver - was a normal weight and used lot of...chemicals.. Until after highschool - then she cleaned up her act and gained a lot of weight and lived like that all through college... Recently she lost a lot of weight and feels like she has 5 more pounds to go.
EDIT:
Her when she was chubbier

Knowing her this well you really have no chance at all...you have gone beyond typical friends. You may as well be her brother.

I never said that i Had a chance with her. Besides, it wasn't a deep level of introspection that revealed that secret - we work out together, we talk about weight issues a lot.. She said she lost a bunch of weight recently.. I said "oh.." and she told me about it.. it doesn't mean that i'm her brother for christ's sake...
