eandj Posted July 11, 2007 #2 Share Posted July 11, 2007 The cruise line literature will specify for you. In general, what you wear when you leave the ship for the day will work. In otherwords, casual clothes....shorts, sandals, jeans(in cool weather) etc. NO bathing suits that show. If it's an at sea day, cover up with a shirt and shorts or a sun dress. Again, depends on the line and where you are cruising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy ks Posted July 11, 2007 #3 Share Posted July 11, 2007 During the day, we wear the same clothes to the dining room that we would wear anywhere else on the ship. They don't want you coming in wearing bathing suits with cover-ups. I do wear my bathing suit under a sundress, but no one would know. We'll generally do that if we are going to the pool after lunch. My husband does not wear his swim shorts, though, just a regular pair of shorts. So, shorts, tees, sundresses, slacks if you wish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanineM Posted July 11, 2007 #4 Share Posted July 11, 2007 I'm sure you know this ... but if you wear your bathing suit under a coverup, have a dry suit. I've had the uncomfortable and dissettling feeling of sitting in a chair in the buffet, only to discover that it's all wet :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SusieQusie Posted July 11, 2007 #5 Share Posted July 11, 2007 Do most cruise lines NOT allow cover-ups in the Dining Room? In other words, if you're at the pool and want to catch some lunch, should you head to the buffet instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy ks Posted July 12, 2007 #6 Share Posted July 12, 2007 Or, go back to your cabin and do a quick change :) I prefer the dining room over the buffet, can you tell ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monjo Posted July 12, 2007 Author #7 Share Posted July 12, 2007 Okay, I know this is a stupid question, but when it says no tank tops in the dining room, is there a difference between sleeveless and tank top? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jane110 Posted July 12, 2007 #8 Share Posted July 12, 2007 Okay, I know this is a stupid question, but when it says no tank tops in the dining room, is there a difference between sleeveless and tank top? The no tank top rule is for men. So, for the the purpose of this question, yes, they are the same. They don't want men in the dining room with sleeveless tops or tank tops. Women can wear tank tops or sleeveless tops in the dining room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChefPeg Posted July 12, 2007 #9 Share Posted July 12, 2007 You can use your own judgement regarding tact. You can wear what you would feel comfortable wearing without offending anyone. Shorts, tees, capris, swimsuits with a cover-up, tanks all are okay. Please no bare feet. Our last cruise several little children were walking around without shoes in goodness knows what.:eek:, tracking it all over the buffet area. The dinner attire is more conservative.

celbercrz333 Posted July 12, 2007 #10 Share Posted July 12, 2007 I don't think breakfast will be too formal. Lunch is another thing. With breakfast, we only did the formal dining room once. We wore what we would have worn to the buffet. I'm guessing you will do the buffet most of the time for breakfast. We found ourselves only doing the formal dining room for dinner.

I can't imagine wanting to eat in the dining room with beach attire on anyway... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunch in the dining room is no more formal than breakfast would be. Shorts, tees, sundresses, the same clothes you would wear anywhere else on the ship, with the exception of swimwear. Try lunch in there at least once, it is so very pleasant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
