Formal night, pink dress?

[cnr1stcruise]

Hi!

Im really bothered by what kind of dress to wear for the formal night? My cruise is in August. Im looking at light pink chiffon, will I stick out like a sore thumb? My other choices are tourquise or lime green! =} Help please!

 

Thanks!

Cindy

Welcome, Cindy.

 

I don't think that color matters. Wear whichever one you feel most beautiful in.

 

Bon Voyage.

My beutiful 16 year old daughter wore red for 1 formal night and lime green for another. I was a little more reserved in purple then bottle green.

I would say that 60% of ladies went for black.

We saw all colours - I particularly remember a very dark-skinned woman who looked stunning in bright canary yellow.

I'm sure that the pink will be fabulous - go for it!

oops - make that beautiful ( I am a teacher for goodness sake!)

You all are funny. I suppose I could be "fabulous" in pink. LOL I look like death in black. :eek: I am very light skined and have natural black hair! I was thinking since it is august, people should wear lighter colors! =} I can't imagine "canary yellow" That was a brave and confident woman!

 

Thanks

I hate black and refuse to wear it, opting instead for blue seersucker.

Last cruise the first formal night I wore royal purple and the second formal night I wore fire engine red - and I loved every minute of it. This time I know that one outfit will be bright blue but I'm not sure of the second night yet (but then I have until October!!). Enjoy your cruise, I'm sure you will look lovely - Jan

You will look FABULOUS in whatever color you choose. It's how you feel in it that matters. I've worn all kinds of colors on formal nights.

Cindy, you really don't need to consider the season. You will see everything on formal night. If you are happy with the pink, then I would wear it. You will not stick out at all. Enjoy your cruise!

Black is certainly the most frequently seen colour, but people wear everything - you'll look great in pink and won't stick out at all! Believe me, the people who stick out, do so for reasons other than what colour they're wearing!! ;)

Wear the pink proudly! I only wish I could find a dress in a color other than black that would look good on me - if I could, I'd be in color with you.

Agree with other people - wear what you feel you look beautiful in: if you feel beautiful, you will undoubtedly look great - no matter what the colour...

 

Hve seen ALL colours on cruises - I choose a lot of black, but this world would be far too boring if we all looked the same ;)

If you "look like death in black", then save that one for your funeral.

Personally I think it's fun to stand out. I wear a lot of vintage from the 50s and early 60s. On my last cruise I wore a metallic silver cocktail dress one night and a sea green flowered dress with a full skirt the next formal night. It was fun!

 

And P.S., pink is my FAVORITE color. I'm willing to bet you will get a ton of compliments in that color!

Enjoy your pink dress and your cruise!

Thankyou so much everyone for your replies! I will wear my pink dress proudly, maybe I will start a trend. Haha. I even bought some cute silver sandal/pumps from Zappos. Got to check that place out! I feel confident now that I will look fine.:)

 

Thanks again!

I wore a pink dress a few weeks ago in February on formal night. It had flowers in lavender on it. We were in the Carribean so I figured why not? There were plenty of women in light colors.
