In the original movies, Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) was known as "The Girl on Fire" because of the theatrical dresses she wore. When she twirled, her dresses produced an artificial, non-lethal flame.
Zegler appeared to wear another Katniss-inspired look at the London premiere of "Songbirds & Snakes."

Annie Cresta (Stef Dawson) was one of the tributes from District 4. She was in a relationship with the fan-favorite character Finnick Odair (Sam Claflin).
In "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay — Part 2," Annie and Finnick get married, and Annie wears a beautiful white dress that looks similar to Zegler's outfit at the Los Angeles premiere.
