Dining Room attire ???

[jsargent34]

As long as they look nice, can I wear cut-off jean shorts and a nice t-shirt to dinner in the dining room? Do others do it as long as it looks good? What about ballcaps, I don't really like to do my hair? To me comfort is so much more important that the norms or the rules, and quite frankly I have to dress up 287 days a year so I don't really want to on a cruise...........

 

 

HEY THE OTHER THREAD HAD LEGS, SO I FIGURED I'D GIVE THIS ONE A TRY...

The official policy is no shorts in the dining room at dinner time.

 

 

Donuts, is there anything they can't do....

[GaryWT]

I think they need to have holes in them to be OK.

Why not be really stylish and wear overall cutoffs with a biker shirt. Oh, and remember to wear your baseball cap backward.

I believe the cut-offs must have holes just under the back pockets and another near the zipper and be worn with no underwear in order to be considered appropriate for the dining room!

I AM SO SICK OF THESE IDIOTS.

 

Get it right. You cannot wear t-shirts.

 

They HAVE TO BE TANK TOPS! Geeze.

[jezzdogg]

and smeely gross sneakers with holes in them, and by the way baseball caps are turned sideways at an angle now and shorts are falling off your waste, with the top of your underwear showing

 

norm

[trish1c]

Only if you bring a roll on cooler, packed w/ smuggled booze & a lit candle perched on top.

 

Although in that outfit you'd probably have more fun if you stayed in your balcony cabin (or better your inside cabin) & grilled on the open flame hibachi you managed to smuggle aboard.

 

Enjoy! (P.S. -- for those who can't hear my sarcasm through the board -- I'm joking)

Unless you have a lot of furry hair don't wear the tank-top. It won't look right.

[trish1c]

Well, in the spirit of vacation, it will help if you shave the RCI anchor logo into your back for the rest of us to enjoy.

[ducklite]

Why bother with the smelly sneakers, just go barefoot.

[jsargent34]

I never thought to shave the anchor in my back hair... Hmmm.......

 

I really can't believe another post similar to this was

a) posted and WELL responded to

and

b) SERIOUS

 

Maybe I'm too traditional or old fashioned, but if dressing up (which it's really not anymore) kills you, go to disneyworld or anywhere BUT a cruise... For pete's sake doesn't anyone appreciate tradition, history, customs, sensibility, and self-respect anymore?

 

Maybe it's just me....

Why not just wear a sheet and pretend it's a Toga party?

Happy Cruising !

I like that look, particularly if you wear your cut off sleeveless shirt open and your belly sticks out. Better yet if there is a little glow of perspiration too!

[jsargent34]

my apologies, i forgot a smoke! i know the rules say no smoking, but they also say "formal" night. i've never found the "formal" shorts section at any dept. store...again maybe i'm not looking in the right areas! even though the rules are no smoking in the dr, there's got to be a way around that.... i'd be much more "comfortable" if i could smoke before during and after dinner...

Serious question: Is is really, really cold in the dining room? When we cruised Carnival, it was so cold in the dining room it made your nose numb. I needed a winter coat on formal night. Is this just a cruise thing on all lines?

I just called the cruise line and you are allowed to wear a winter coat in the dining room as long as it is a fur.

[jsargent34]

No, but i'm so fat and hairy that i can shave a crown in anchor in my back.....

Gives a whole new meaning to clams, and sausage for dinner.

Formal shorts are located next to Dress Jeans in stores around here.

Won't work -- it'll have to Red, White & Blue. If it's an extra special occasion, maybe you can find an old can of Billy Beer lying around somewhere.

 

BTW, what will your travelling companions be wearing?
