Men's Formal Wear

[cheryl20772]

We sure get a lot of leeway in the dress rules provided by Celebrity.

 

1. Full Tuxedo (This one just happens to be very bright and could also come in, for example, powder blue -- or black.) No one told this fellow that a genuine tux is supposed to have a shawl lapel. My preference would be black, but this red one fits Celebrity's dress rule.

 

2. Very loud suit. He needs a red necktie with that thing :D

Could also come in a very subdued solid black with white shirt and bow tie.)

 

3. Navy jacket with grey flannel slacks. Might come in tan, black or maroon with satin or velvet lapels. A "dinner jacket" is usually a bit fancier than just a tweed sportcoat.

 

You could possibly see men in Highland kilt. Cruising is a worldwide sport and we might have people on our ship visiting from anywhere. If you see a kaftan or a Grand boubou, I hope you will not judge too harshly. For a man from West Africa, a Dashiki is considered formal wear. If someone turns up at the MDR wearing "red sea rig", do you thing he will be turned away for not having on a jacket?

Too funny. Great job there with those pictures.

I was on a cruise with a man who brought a red tux. With a white shirt it was very sharp.

On one cruise I saw a guy in a lavender coloured tux and matching accessories and he actually looked very smart. There is just no way I could carry that one off, but he did.
