Likacruisa Posted November 21, 2017 #127 Share Posted November 21, 2017 From another “nole” I have seen about every type of clothing on Carnival the past couple years even to shorts, flip flops and shirtless on elegant night on Valor 9/16. Have a picture of the man that yelled roll tide all week before they put a dinner napkin on his back. So I would say yes your jeans are welcome.

dccramer Posted November 21, 2017 #128 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Royal aren’t the only line that are consistently inconsistent though.Although inappropriate, we've been on 3 Royal Caribbean cruises and have never seen anyone turned away from the MDR for any type of clothing including cut offs worn by both members of a couple.

dvond Posted November 21, 2017 #129 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Just off the Anthem and on non formal nights I would say over 50% men had shorts on as I did myself. On formal night, saw a ton of jeans but only a few shorts. Only time I saw a turn away was for a tank top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckyprincess Posted November 22, 2017 #131 Share Posted November 22, 2017 So I think there are a few things at play. Main dining room use to be really formal. Tuxedo formal. So there are some lamenting change. According to the written policy, they would not be allowed. The cruise line does not enforce those policies, but still there are people who will hold them up as a commandment. Finally there is a HUGE misunderstanding of fine dining today. I agree with you that the dining room is not fine dining, but even if it were, so what. There are any number of fine dining restaurants that have modern dress codes. We had dinner last week at a steak and seafood place. 6 of us all in jeans. I had a t-shirt and sweater with jeans. The entrees were $50+ per person, and in true fine dining fashion everything was a la carte. Yes there were white linen tablecloths and napkins. Times have changed. Some people are just having a hard time with it. Sent from my SM-G920P using Forums mobile app Thanks! This makes the sense..... :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firsttimecruiser# Posted November 22, 2017 #132 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I wouldn't wear them and wouldn't let my daughter or granddaughter wear them to dinner no matter how trendy they are. But then I guess i'm older and out of touch. Can't figure out why people pay money for something i'd through in the trash. But to each his own. Agree!!!

goldgirl2 Posted November 22, 2017 #133 Share Posted November 22, 2017 We prefer to dress up every night in the MDR. It doesn’t matter to us what anyone else is wearing.

sb44 Posted November 22, 2017 #134 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Are ripped jeans trendy to help people with money identify with people who can't afford clothes. This is just beyond my comprehension. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzeluver Posted November 22, 2017 #135 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Not sure what planet some fuddy-duddies have been living on, but ripped jeans are hardly a new trend, unless we are still considering the 1980's "new". Now go put on that same suit you have been schlepping on cruises since 1978 and looks it (for the gentleman) and get your palazzo pants and "sparkly" top (for the ladies), its formal night! ;p (as long as we are generalizing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OfTheSeasCruiser Posted November 22, 2017 #138 Share Posted November 22, 2017 (edited) Now go put on that same suit you have been schlepping on cruises since 1978 and looks it (for the gentleman) and get your palazzo pants and "sparkly" top (for the ladies), its formal night! ;p (as long as we are generalizing) ding, ding, ding! Trendy, modern, and fashion are clearly not words in most of these posters’ vocabularies. You know what, I think i’m going to rent a baggy tux that’s about 2 sizes too big for my next cruise. That’s fashionable right? And you know what’s even funnier, these millennials who are “dumbing down society” have become Royal’s preferred client base. If you don’t like that, maybe it’s time to try Azamara or Crystal. Edited November 22, 2017 by OfTheSeasCruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sb44 Posted November 22, 2017 #139 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Not a fuddy duddy by any means. But my adult children and grandchildren always dress "respectfully" in public where there is a suggested dress code. We live on the beach and are used to simple rules. Looking like a slob takes away from the experience for those who feel their cruise is something special. In our business we go by the rule "if you look in the mirror and wonder if what you're wearing is appropriate, it probably isn't ". Our millennials and interns have thanked me for that advice over the years. Same applies for restaurants.

ProblemCruiser Posted November 22, 2017 #145 Share Posted November 22, 2017 just plain morals think of others listen before you speak follow the RULES they are for EVERYONE EVERYONE Fair enough point. Thank you for bringing it although the timing is a little off given someone has been posting insulting pictures and comments for a while until someone else decided to put in a counter-argument/response.

TominNC Posted November 22, 2017 #146 Share Posted November 22, 2017 segue. But I continue to find this thread hilarious. Not sure which of the insulted groups I belong in. I'm 58 but really don't care what other people wear in the dining room. I go with comfort myself. As long as it's clean what you like. I look in the mirror and don't ask myself if my attire will make others happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
