love2fish Posted April 4 #1 Share Posted April 4 Hello, I haven't been on a cruise in 9 years. I'll be sailing on the Independence of the Sea next month. The last time we sailed, I believe men were required to wear collared shirts in the dining room. Has this changed? Has the dress become more laxed? Just trying to figure out what to pack. I don't remember - is there a formal night on a 5 night cruise? Thanks for the input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted April 4 #2 Share Posted April 4 Men now show up in whatever they want. I've seen a man at my table show up to dress up night in nice shorts. No bathing suits allowed. Or see thru. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Husky1987 Posted April 4 #4 Share Posted April 4 Whether it means a tux/cocktail dress or shorts, dress to your comfort level and have fun. The only people who care what you wear are the CC dress code police. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When with my kids/grandkids I bring and ask my male kids to bring a sport jacket for family pictures. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare bsbcgirl Posted April 8 #7 Share Posted April 8 The clothes that I saw at dinner in the main dining room (recent Odyssey southern Caribbean cruise) was a mixture of smartly dressed, casual, and extremely casual. The worst dressed individual I saw was a man in gym shorts, a muscle shirt, a cap, and sneakers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
