Formal wear on Princess - kilts acceptable?

[scots]

Does anyone know if kilts are an acceptable form of dress for formal nights on Princess?:confused:

I don't see why not at all, it's a traditional formal dress. Wear your kilt with pride :)

 

I honestly can't see that it would be a problem at all, I think kilts are one of the smartest forms of formal dress for men.

One one of the more recent posts on this board, someone posted a picture of himself and his wife on formal night - he wearing kilts. I think he looked great and am sure you will too. You should wear them!

I saw someone with a kilt on our cruise. I think it'd be great!

I love kilts on men! By all means wear the kilt as it is a perfectly acceptable form of formal wear.

A kilt is indeed considered proper attire on formal evenings. We were talking with friends the other day and all agree we like the look of a man in a kilt and all the finery. DH said if he were Scottish he would certainly wear a kilt on formal nights. Unfortunately, he's a mad Russian, and no, the big furry hat won't be making it's way onboard!!!:D

 

trashieeuro: grow up.

A kilt is certainly formal wear. :)

 

Of course, as I am sure you know, strictly speaking an evening wear sporran and a Prince Charlie jacket and vest should be worn but not everyone sticks rigidly to the rules. A black Argylle jacket can also look very smart and I cheated at the second formal night and only wore a "jacobite shirt":

John - is that really your family plaid? It is lovely. My only recent experience with a kilt was shoppong at a grocery in Memphis, in warm weather, and in walks a very tall, robust guy with very long hair, a scowl, a tool belt and a kilt...shopping for dinner...I wondered if he was a roofer:o

memphismimi,

 

My maternal grandmother was a Ferguson.

 

This tartan is an "Ancient Ferguson" rather than the more common "Modern Ferguson". I got this new kilt to go on Liberty's inaugural cruise last year and liked the more muted colours of the ancient.

 

Thanks for your compliments.

Kilts are absolutely acceptable on RCCL for sure. I have seen them many times and I honestly believe they add to the occasion on formal nights.

 

Enjoy
