Perhaps they are the arty type.

Salvador Dali was an eccentric although he always seemed well dressed.

I would have to ask these guests if they had lost their luggage.

His wife fully dressed

the ship could have laundered his clothes overnight

 

he’s no Salvador Dali

A Gentleman should never remove his jacket unless he was on deck with a lady and she felt cold.

Which happens frequently to my wife. One might suppose a woman from NW Germany would be more resilient to a slight chill, but it is not so.

I inquired

u were right 

lost luggage

but she was fully dressed. Odd. 

i cross pack

no idea how they will ever get luggage to the small places we are going. 
if he has insurance he could purchase a few things in the shop and get reimbursed

 

this is why I ship my luggage to my pre cruise hotel.

When our luggage lost the crew were busy finding us clothes to wear. It was an interesting assortment of sartorial splendor.  I never considered wearing the bathrobe. I could have done a great toga with a bedsheet.  Fortunately luggage was delivered just before departure and no one got to see my rendition of a toga draped on a much older but wiser, body.

But cannot your luggage still get "lost"?

If luggage forward lost luggage they would be out of business. I also use air tags. Double tracking. Luggage forward will get your luggage to you. Extensively tracked. An airline?   Lol

 

also my luggage arrives a week before I do. Plenty of time to handle glitches

I think the bathrobe might be more of a sartorial statement than what you can buy in the shop.

 Since my wife and I do not drink, we didn't book Regent.  Now all luxury lines have "free booze," so we're buying everyone drinks.

 

Let me be the first to say, "Thank you."  It is very kind of you.

Better to have luggage arrive a day or more early at the pre-cruise hotel.  Offers a chance to recover from any issues.

Exactly. Day of ship’s departure way too close for comfort

Just saw another guy in bathrobe in la dolce vita

 

On our cruise on The Dawn from UK to Iceland in June we had a guy in The Arts Cafe at 9.30pm with socks, no shoes, a T-shirt and shorts, on another occasion in the Salt restaurant, it was formal night, another different guy in a dark suit etc.for formal night, but no socks, he did at one point go to the WC without shoes.

I signed up for shipment to the ship for the sport coats, slacks, shirts, ties - etc.  I need to have the bag packed so it can be shipped 2 weeks before the sail date.  Seems like that should be plenty of time for the shipping company to "recover from any issues."  I have never done this before - never needed so much clothing 🙃 - so I'm definitely no expert.  I guess it boils down to which is more likely to lose your luggage - the airline, the hotel, or the shipping company - and which shipment option is most convenient.
