tulip2010 Posted May 5, 2018 #1 Share Posted May 5, 2018 Hi everyone. Hubby and love to dress up. For our upcoming cruise he is wearing his tux. I have a black pantsuit and a navy gown. The gown is definitely dressier. Do I do that on the first or second formal night.Thank in advance!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reina del Mar Posted May 5, 2018 #2 Share Posted May 5, 2018 First usually dressier. We prefer to have photographs on second one, by which time we have usually acquired a 'healthy glow' ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCruisers Posted May 6, 2018 #3 Share Posted May 6, 2018 The first is normally the dressier of the two. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends on the cruise line .On Cunard every formal night is equal .On virtually every other cruise line Formal nights no longer exist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daisyloo Posted May 6, 2018 #5 Share Posted May 6, 2018 We have noticed that the first formal night seems to be the more "formal". I'm not sure why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipgeeks Posted May 6, 2018 #6 Share Posted May 6, 2018 Since the changes in wording (Formal = Gala, etc.), I've found the second one is almost always dressier. It's almost as if some are hesitant to be overdressed; they then see that lots of people did dress to the max the first gala night, so they do so the second one. Just my observations. IMO, either way is just fine. I've also noticed that as the cruise goes on, more and more men start wearing their suits and sport coats/blazers on the casual nights. Again, maybe an observation that others are doing so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
