Cuizer2 Posted June 10, 2016 #27 Share Posted June 10, 2016 (edited) What about the right to bare arms? :D The ships are foreign flagged, so the US constitution does not apply. :) Beside, then you get into the argument about arming bears.

ober134 Posted June 18, 2016 #29 Share Posted June 18, 2016 I concur that the MDR is often too chilly for me. I always have a wrap or shrug folded in my bag should the need arise. And there are some perfectly beautiful tank tops for ladies the are quite acceptable. Men's wife-beaters or those that promote Lite Beer are not. just my opinion.

But what if it is an "elegant" wife-beater, or one that promotes PREMIUM Lite Beer?9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

notentirelynormal Posted July 4, 2016 #32 Share Posted July 4, 2016 [attach]387668[/attach] This is a dressy tank top. IMO, Appropriate. [attach]387669[/attach] This is a "tank top." Not appropriate. That isn't a tank top - it is a sleeveless top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruceMuzz Posted July 4, 2016 #33 Share Posted July 4, 2016 Many cruise lines have been forced to add a "Rural" Dress Code to accommodate current trends in America. Why not try to pair your "elegant tank top" with some "formal hog washers" and a patent leather baseball cap? A tramp stamp and a nose ring would round it out very nicely.

Good point - it seems that as long as the name of an article of clothing is preceded by an adjective such as "dressy" or "formal" it is fine for any venue, any time of day. Of course "dressy" pajamas are OK -as would be a "formal" wife beater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lisiamc Posted July 5, 2016 #35 Share Posted July 5, 2016 It's such a shame about the death of common sense. :D Not that it really ever was common. Some people can exercise appropriate judgement and some cannot, no matter how many rules and guidelines they are given. I'm sure that some on this thread would argue that a woman in a polo shirt on formal night would be more appropriately dressed than a woman in a spaghetti-strap cocktail dress, because the dress would count as a tank top!

Sent from my iPhone using Forums Just visualize bib overalls - often cut off at about knee level. To be considered "formal" or "dressy" you only have to add sequins.

TC1957 Posted July 5, 2016 #39 Share Posted July 5, 2016 (edited) Good grief...where what you want to the MDR. I doubt many will notice. The only time I have ever noticed what someone was wearing (other than my family and those at my table) in any restaurant is when the women at the table point them out or start gesturing and whispering. That usually indicates someone is "pushing the limit"...and then, unless you look like people should be throwing dollar bills at you, it will soon be forgotten. The lone exception to that was on our last cruise and I wanted to gauge "formal" participation for a review. Edited July 5, 2016 by TC1957 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sadet001 sadet001 Posted July 5, 2016 #40 Share Posted July 5, 2016 I'm excited to dress up for formal night. My husband of 30 years and I had a small wedding that wasn't that formal. It's our anniversary and darn it, we are dressing up!! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallivanting Souls Posted July 19, 2016 #47 Share Posted July 19, 2016 You might consider bringing a sweater or something for your shoulders. Every ship I have been on it has been chilly at dinner in the main dining room, and I was glad I had a sweater. One time that I didn't my DH gave up his suit coat for me :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
