Bell Boy Posted September 9, 2019 #5 Share Posted September 9, 2019 (edited) Assuming you are a male, I'd wear the 'Jacket' separate from the complete outfit and team it up with black dress trousers & dress shirt/black bow etc. Since Cunard changed the description from 'Formal' to 'Gala' ( obviously a directive from Cunard's North American office) some folks ( my observations) think it's time to bring down the dressing -up box from the loft . I've seen some sights recently , from a Victorian chimney sweep ( complete with blacken face & brush) to a Disney character with Micky mouse ears. (both adults in their 50/60's ) 😆 Nothing wrong with coloured jackets, I prefer to wear them for formal evening wear.

shipgeeks Posted September 9, 2019 #9 Share Posted September 9, 2019 To answer the question as I understand it, I think the outfit sounds just fine. IMO, sometimes there are just too many black outfits, especially on a formal night. Color is good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Med Posted September 9, 2019 #14 Share Posted September 9, 2019 I’m new to the Cunard board so I can’t specifically answer the question related to this cruise line. However, I can definitely answer it woman to woman. There is so much black on cruises, any other colour stands out and is such a refreshing change. Honestly who doesn’t love people watching? Do the cruising world a favour and wear your yellow with pride and love. i hope that you’re on my cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
