Heather White Posted August 18, 2014 #1 Share Posted August 18, 2014 I think we've now grasped the dress code for evenings. Can men wear shorts to breakfast in the Colonnade? We're talking Mediterranean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsWaldo Posted August 18, 2014 #2 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Yes they can You can also wear exercise gear, antarctic wear or a onesie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stamfordian Posted August 18, 2014 #3 Share Posted August 18, 2014 I recall one cruise where a very elderly couple would turn up in bathrobes to the Veranda for breakfast. I think the maitre d' or hotel manager had a discreet word and thereafter, apparently, they ordered room service as we never saw them again at breakfast! But, as Mrs W says, basically anything goes - you're on holiday. It's really only evenings when dress code kicks in. Although I'm not sure how they would respond to skinny-dipping in the pool!

T&C Fulham Posted August 18, 2014 #4 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Can men wear shorts to breakfast in the Colonnade? We're talking Mediterranean. We did in the Caribbean. Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenidallas Posted August 18, 2014 #5 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Yes. You'll typically most people wearing what they'll were into port at breakfast/lunch. On sea days, it's the same - just be sure swimwear is covered up! (On the women's side of that, I usually throw a sundress over my bathing suit so I'm appropriately attired all day until dinner.)

Martita B. Posted August 18, 2014 #6 Share Posted August 18, 2014 I believe you can wear your terry cloth suite robe to the Sky Bar on the 'Baby Girls ~a elderly fellow from Houston use to come to the Sky Bar (the Pride) mornings for his bloody mary. He'd always perch on "his"bar stool and visit with Nelson & his shipmates. We were always happy to see him come thru' the door each morning.

lincslady Posted August 18, 2014 #7 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Heather - yes, assuming they are more or less the 'tailored' type, not too short, and not swim shorts, and fine for lunch as well. Keep the Orlebar Browns and Villebrequins for the pool area! (Not sure about spelling, my DH is a bit beyond swim shorts at his age!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chairsin Posted August 18, 2014 #9 Share Posted August 18, 2014 And on SB's website and your preliminary cruise booklet it states, "Swimsuits, brief shorts, coverups and exercise attire should be reserved for poolside, on deck or in the spa and fitness center." That said a number of people do show up at the Veranda/Colonnade for breakfast lunch in exercise gear and coverups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martita B. Posted August 18, 2014 #10 Share Posted August 18, 2014 I've seen very few sailors enjoying their morning bloody marys wearing their terry robes. I would never appear in mine, but I guess this elderly fellow from Houston felt comfortable ~at lunch, in the dining room, he would arrive at the back door in a gorgeous suit with a necktie ~ he was always very fashionable and well dressed ~traveled alone. He was so kind to the staff and crew ~they loved his being aboard. MB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
