disfan Posted August 30, 2012 #1 Share Posted August 30, 2012 A neighbor is going on the Freedom and he asked me some questions about dress codes. One I wasn't sure of. If he uses the lounges in the morning or early afternoon, can he wear shorts? He would be doing slacks at night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I frequently stopped at the Diamond Lounge dressed in swimsuit and hoodie to grab a bite on my way to the flowrider. I was usually the only one there that early and would talk to the Diamond Concierge and he never ever mentioned I should be dressier. :) For dinner hours, though, you are correct that slacks/nice jeans and nice shirt would be appropriate.

FLACRUISER99 Posted August 30, 2012 #5 Share Posted August 30, 2012 Dress code only applies during cocktail hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAHA Posted June 24, 2013 #6 Share Posted June 24, 2013 What is the dress code in the evenings in the Diamond Lounge? We will be having a 10 PM nightime glass bottom boat excursion in Bermuda and will eat dinner in the windjammer that night. Would shorts be acceptable since we will not be going to the MDR? Thanks!

Mary Anne no. during cocktail hour shorts are not permitted in the lounges at all. I have seen people turned away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

39august Posted August 8, 2013 #10 Share Posted August 8, 2013 This totally depends on the ship/concierge. Some enforce it, some don't. We seldom do formal nights anymore, but I have never been denied the cocktail hour in either the CL or DL when wearing either capris or a sundress on formal nights.

MAHA Posted August 8, 2013 #11 Share Posted August 8, 2013 We don't plan on wearing shorts, except maybe the night we are going on a 10 PM glass bottom boat tour in Bermuda. We are eating in the Windjammer that evening as we have late seating dinner and won't make the shore excursion if we eat in the MDR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also depends on the itinerary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phish tales Posted August 8, 2013 #13 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Absolutely agree. It also depends on the itinerary. I agree but i do not like it. I don't know what the itinerary has to do with it. my standards (as you see I said MY standards) are i will never wear shorts on any cruise for any reason after 6 PM. I feel the evening dress attire for my wife and I starts every evening at 6pm. others can wear what they want (and some sure do ). but my wife and i have our standards.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
