He was probably extremely stoned and made an easy to make mistake while trying to dress to impress Jimi Hendrix who also attended the premiere.
Paul is renowned for having access to fab "gear" and that black suit probably looked like rainbow unicorn purple paisley when using old English currency in 1967.
