Nicole&Pete Posted May 21, 2023 #1 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Hello all, I would really like to know how likely a ‘white and gold’ night would be on my upcoming cruise (14 days on Sky Princess out of Southampton). Could anyone please tell me if they’ve had one on a similar length cruise? Im not going to buy a whole new outfit but maybe some gold accessories, but I don’t ant to do that if it doesn’t happen.

Rare Eglesbrech Posted May 21, 2023 #7 Share Posted May 21, 2023 We were supposed to have one on one of the formal nights one Sky 2 weeks ago. I didn’t see anyone in white and gold. Just my opinion but it is a really naff colour combination for most folks anyway but particularly for a formal. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn’t familiar with the term “naff” so I looked it up and now I learned something new. I agree with your assessment of the color combination. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without fancy dress- the Ancient Greek dressing up post from Rick&Jeannie has me giggling 🤭 in on a two week sky Princess cruise in August. I’ll dress up for formal night but white and gold? I’ll pass. No one needs to see me in that 😬 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tutumomickey Posted May 21, 2023 #10 Share Posted May 21, 2023 SF to Hawaii March 2023 on the Royal seems like 65% were participating to some extent. Our party of 7 went all out with gold evening gowns and white tuxes with gold vests. Enjoyed all the Love Boat party festivities from trivia to the games in the Piazza late night. Dance party with confetti drop was a highlight for the 5 year olds. It fell on their birthday so they thought the whole party was for them! IMHO, you get out of something what you put in. The more we participate, the more fun we havw, the more memories we make. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steelers36 Posted May 21, 2023 #12 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Not the least bit interested. Now, if they decided to do a Black and Gold (close enough to Yellow) night, I might be getting involved. 4 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deesquared Posted May 22, 2023 #14 Share Posted May 22, 2023 We had a White & Gold night on NYE on our recent Caribbean cruise on Ruby. My daughters and I tried to find something at the local consignment store, but only one daughter had any luck. She found a very pretty gold pleated dress. Not too many people were wearing white & gold, but many folks were in party clothes for NYE. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Roberto256 Posted May 22, 2023 #17 Share Posted May 22, 2023 (edited) I thought the "White and Gold" party was a tie-in to the "The Real Love Boat" television show. https://www.princess.com/news/the-love-boat/ The show died quickly, although probably not was quickly as it deserved. I don't think CBS even broadcast all the episodes they made. So, what's the point of white and gold now? Edited May 22, 2023 by Roberto256 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe just something fun to do like some of the other cruise lines that have theme nights such as RC's White Night, Disney's Pirate Night, Virgin's Red Dress Night, HAL's Orange Party, etc.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edspec Posted May 22, 2023 #20 Share Posted May 22, 2023 @Nicole&Pete I'm on the same cruise as you and I'm not seeing it in Journeyview. Naturally, since by chande I cobbled together an outfit 😞 Oh well, it wasn't formal, just a long white skirt and shirt and gold sandals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicole&Pete Posted May 22, 2023 Author #23 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Thanks all for your replies. I have looked through my wardrobe, and the only thing that goes with the colour theme is fitting a little too snug (too much time at the buffet 😉) so I may give it a miss!

It'll attract some people who believe it to be a special night. Not that there's anything wrong with it as long as they don't make me participate. 😑 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
