Formal dress throughout the night!

[Cruisin' Chick]

I agree, however if the cruise line informs every one that the dress code of the night is for the whole ship and for the whole night then those with the above attitude should not be on that cruise. If you choose a cruise line which has a strict dress code then you should adhere to it. If you prefer casual then choose a casual cruise line.

 

Not rocket science.

So, even though the dress code doesn't refer to the Horizon Court, those people should be dressed in formal wear?

[Cruisin' Chick]

WHO told you that, they could care less what the faceless mob is wearing. Really, just pay them , clap and they could care less if you are butt naked.

They sign on for a contract that requires them to do the same dang show night after night, for months sometimes, trust me they could care less about the audiences clothes. That is funny.

 

I thought this was ridiculous too. The performers are too busy performing and probably can't see much of the audience anyway with all the lights shining on them (noted from personal experience from several times being in front of an audience).

Yeah, but do all of those flash bulbs during Mardi Gras 1984 when you were getting arrested REALLY count as "lights shining"? heheh

 

All in fun :D :p

Dear Cruisin' Chick,

 

Perhaps you misunderstood the thrust of my posts, or I was not plain enough. I was only pointing out that there is a Cruise line which asks passengers to adhere to the dress code of the evening at all times. Thus those who enjoy the dressing up experience, have a choice

 

 

I was merely giving the good folk on this board advice on were they could go to find a ship were people do stay dressed after dinner, if you reread my posting I am talking about P&O, remember them, the company who owned Princess before Carnival waved its cheque book.

 

 

Happy Cruising

Anyway I have been known to take my jacket of in the casino or disco, I know letting standards down but what the hell and my wife takes her shoes off.

I'm always dining late and DO wear the tux to dinner. Most of the time we go straight to the show so there's no time to change. After the shows over....I change to casual pants and a nice shirt for the casino, disco or bar. We do notice what folks wear inside the dining room......but outside that.......who really cares?

Fortunately and obviously Princess is not a line that has a strict dress code. It is a suggested dress code and based on a letter from Princess to one of the posters on this board, it is definitely optional.

 

So to the poster you are replying to, feel free to change after dinner. And don't worry about the stares from others.

So is there an imaginary line that the people who choose the buffet so they don't have to dress up can't cross? What do they do after dinner - go back and change into formal wear so they can see the show or go to the Casino? Go back, change and be comfortable.

The group I was with on the Diamond last week insisted on changing out of formal clothes after dinner. I felt very out of place, but they had the attitude, "Who cares?" Next time, I'll insist that we stay formally dressed like we have in the past. I didn't appreciate the stares. :(

 

Everyone is on a cruise to have fun right? I dress up for dinner and get comfortable for the rest of the night. I have paid my passage, as everyone else, so I choose to do what is best for me. It is my vacation. As for people staring, they are formally ignorant!:)
