Summit dress code

Also, I'm confused. On a 7 night cruise, there are 2 formal nights, right? And then the other 5 are "informal"? What about casual? Are jackets generally worn for informal nights as well? Etc.?

Celebrity now has two dress codes for the MDR. On your cruise two nights will be formal and five nights will be "smart casual." This means pants and a shirt with a collar for men. No jacket required for smart casual...Informal dress was removed from the dress code a few years ago.

I can jump in here because I'm leaving in 15 days (CANNOT come soon enough) and I'm renting a tux. I'm far from a clothes person, and in fact I lean toward overdressing out of fear of a faux pas, but I will be renting a tux for onboard nights. I like the convenience of having the tux there waiting for me, not having to lug it from houston and back. I like the newness of it, as well.

 

The cost is around $100 for the entire sailing, and I've had them perform alterations if it doesnt quite fit (they take your measurements when you order).

 

For reference, I'll probably wear the tux 2-3 nights, and wear a business suit to dinner on other nights, and slacks/dress shirt for other ship activities (trivia, casino, etc).

 

Hope this helps!

My two stepsons and I are going with the white dinner jacket look for our June Bermuda cruise.

No you would not look out of place in a tux, I would say about 60% of men wear a tux. They look so sharp.

OK! I ordered a tux online. That should give me a week or so to have it tailored if necessary.

I don't own a dark suit, and I am going to be cremated, so I never will own one. That is why I rent a tux.

It's designated as "formal" night. There are guidelines. If you aren't willing to go along, don't cruise on Celebrity. There are other lines that do not have "formal" nights. Why do people fight it? I'm not a big fan of formal night. However, when I sail on Celebrity, I bring appropriate attire. Nobody if forcing you to sail on Celebrity. If you do pick a Celebrity cruise, respect the "formal" attire. It doesn't mean you need white tie and tails or even a tux. A dark suit is what most men wear. Women have more choices. Hawaiin shirt isn't my idea of formal. It's rude!

Dark suit is not required, dark was removed from the dress code a couple of years ago...

maybe a kinder response than get lost would be to suggest some of the other venues that do not require formal attire and where a Hawaiian shirt would be perfectly appropriate - Blu, Qsine, Normandie, Buffet, room service, Bistro on five
