BRU5 Posted March 2, 2011 #1 Share Posted March 2, 2011 The Celebrity brochure advises that men must wear" long sleeved shirts" to dinner on smart casual nights. Is this what actually occurs in practice? There are some very nice smart casual short sleeve shirts. Any help would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PS90 Posted March 2, 2011 #2 Share Posted March 2, 2011 I don't know what any brochure says, but the dress code on the website says "shirt must have sleeves". That doesn't specify long sleeves, to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texkan Posted March 2, 2011 #3 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Many men wear short sleeve Hawaiian type shirts on Caribbean sailings and many in Polo type shirts for smart casual night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It means shirts with sleeves (short or long) as opposed to shirts without any sleeves. A muscle shirt is an example of a sleeveless shirt. Another example would be a man's vest underwear shirt. Just returned from Equinox cruise and saw most men, including myself, in short sleeve shirts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillRR Posted March 2, 2011 #7 Share Posted March 2, 2011 All that angst. Maybe you should wear one long and one short sleeve. Forrest Gump, where afre you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomersetBoy0 Posted March 2, 2011 #8 Share Posted March 2, 2011 I've read a lot of threads about smart casual attire, and am pretty happy I know what to pack. But one thing that never seems to get a mention is whether shirts are tucked in or untucked?? or does this not matter? I prefer an untucked shirt myself, allows more air to circulate :cool:.

phoenix_dream Posted March 2, 2011 #9 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Hawaiian type shirts - untucked. Polos and other types of shirts - tucked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are no rules as to tucked or untucked and you see both. Hopefully common sense and decent taste will prevail. Since I lack both :rolleyes: I usually just ask my DW and follow her recommendation. Usually I wear Tommy Bahama type shirts and, as phoenix_dream indicated above, they go untucked.
