BallFour4 Posted February 27, 2014 #51 Share Posted February 27, 2014 (edited) We've been on the Triumph three times and the ship(s) it replaced from Galveston a dozen more and my observation is fewer and fewer dress in tux. The reasons are many; luggage weights, more casual atmosphere with dress attire overall or the Carnival dress suggestions being more relaxed. Here's what I see. On most nights you will see a few in shorts, some in jeans but overall men in khakis and a polo shirt. Mix in a rare sport coat for dinner and that will cover three of your nights at sea. On Cruise Elegant night suits, dress slacks and a polo or long sleeve shirt are the norm. A couple of tuxedos appear on every cruise. Some say the duration of the cruise or time of year matter, but to me I don't see that. We always go to early seating dinner, so perhaps late or anytime dining is different. What I do see are many empty tables on that night. Aboard the Glory last summer we had 25% of the tables empty on dress up nights. On what is now 23 cruises I've never seen dirty attire, beater shirts or the slobs people come here and post about. At least not in the dining rooms. .

Almost Packed Posted February 27, 2014 #52 Share Posted February 27, 2014 The only thing sexier than a man in a tux is a man in uniform. Sent from my SGH-T989 using Forums mobile app Allow me to upgrade this statement a bit... the only thing sexier is a man in uniform or tux is out of uniform or tux :eek: :D (oh no she didn't!) :p;);) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotch Mist Posted February 28, 2014 #53 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I think you should wear what you feel comfortable in. My other half takes his full kilt outfit and gets lots of comments. It's nice to dress up every now and again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCruisers Posted February 28, 2014 #54 Share Posted February 28, 2014 While very few men still wear a tux on Carnival ships, you certainly may if you wish. LuLu ~~~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
