Dress Code Question, (sorry)

[rucruisn2]

I read RCL's website, it said on a 7 night cruise, 1 smart casual night. Do men really wear sport coats? Just wondering if we should bother packing one for DH. Thanks.

Yes, some certainly do. Those men tend to look very suave and appropriate. No tie necessary. Especially if they're going to a specialty restaurant. Dressing up a bit makes the night a little more special, IMO. Yet you'll certainly see a lot of men who don't and for the most part if they're in dress pants and a nice shirt they'll do fine.

If he wants to bring it then do, not necessary though. My hubby does because many times it is cool in the public areas and he is glad he has it.

most people do not dress any differently on smart casual nights. I wear dresses all weeek, but my fiance wears dress pants and a polo shirt all days except formal nights.

If you follow the dress code, you won't be wrong.

Just curious, but do you have a pop up when there is a dress code question, only I never see you on any other posts and just wondered.:)

Don't bother with the sportscoat........we just got off the Mariner and that night is just like casual night.......

I have to say I saw more shorts in the dining room on this cruise then ANY of my Carnival cruises......which include shorts.......

He is the chief of the dress code police. Not only is your observation spot on, but you will also note that his posts are always the same.

 

Click on his screen name and a little menu will pop up. Click in the list of his prior posts and you will see for yourself.

To be honest, although RC says that there will be smart casual nights, on many cruises they never get listed. In any case, smart casual is certainly a non-event - you may never even be aware of it.

Thanks all, pretty much what I thought. We've been on Celebrity since the change, but not RCI and just wanted to double check. Less to haul.

I did. You are correct.

U are correct.

On the Cruise Compass under dining it's listed as casual or formal.

Nothing else.

Gosh, I hope I didn't start a war on the boards! I'm lucky my DH will wear big boy pants for dinner. Ever since we moved to Florida, he LIVES in shorts.
