    For my husband who is a very blue collar type and is not comfortable in anything resembling office attire, this is his dress policy that has never been kicked out of a MDR or specialty dining venue (except likely on a cruise line like Cunard)
    Casual: Logo tees and jeans. Just make sure they're clean and free of holes or offensive sayings.
    Smart Casual: Plain tees or polo and "dress jeans". Dress jeans are his black jeans that dont look like jeans in the least. He has pulled out the formal night pants for a better specialty restaurant but I dont count on it here.
    Formal night: Interview outfit or date night outfit. Collared, button down shirt and dockers pants. No jacket, but he's considered one a few times but packing space is just not permitting the jacket to tag along. However, his shoe selection is a clean pair of sneakers or work boots. He just refuses to wear dress shoes for anything but his own wedding so for the sake of peace, I let him. The shoe police have yet to get him.
    Now for me, I'm an office jockey, but my office is definitely more casual than most offices. So this is my dress code.
    Casual: Blouse with yoga pants. I do try to stay away from the logo tees in order to dress up hub. But a floral blouse and some black yoga pants have never let me down.
    Smart Casual: Honestly, I can usually stick with the casual look here but sometimes I'll break out a sundress. No heels yet though. Part of my goal is to dress up hub's look so if he is in a plain tee and the dress jeans, I'm going to put on a dress to give the illusion that we're dressier than we really are.
    Formal night: Yep I'm breaking out the cocktail dress. I'm going full on adult prom here. Heels are now in play. This is what I consider wedding attire. But again the goal is to dress up hub's lack of jacket or dress shoes
    This pairing of looks have never gotten us refused service in the MDR or any specialty restaurant or have gotten us any accusatory glances by disapproving other passengers. Now, on a line like Cunard, this probably would be under dressed, and might be refused service. But on lines like Royal, its never let us down.

    My last cruise (which was my first) I looked around the main dinning room and saw Hawaiian shirts, cargo shorts and tank tops with tennis shoes for dinner.
    I said the heck with it and wore dress shorts, docksides, with a tucked in collared shirt and looked better than most.

    Was on Anthem of the Seas 2 weeks ago. For formal or "wear your best" night, we always dress up. That is something we looked forward to. Now, at lot of people are looking downright shabby on formal night. The dining room staff allowed people wearing shorts and other questionable attire in. What dress code? It really took the fun out of that evening. Going forward, we will still dress up-black suits and cocktail dresses.

      @@cjhan47 because eventually it may get to the point that wearing an evening dress and a tux on formal night will make you feel out of place bc everyone else is in shorts or casual attire & eventually could end formal night all together. Formal night should be just that, formal attire. If you don’t want to get dressed up that’s fine. There are other options other then the MDR, save formal night for people who actually want to dress to the nines and not feel awkward or out of place on a FORMAL NIGHT

    I love formal nights. Some are in tuxes and long evening gowns. Others in their best dress clothes. I usually do a modest LBD and gold earrings. My mother wears a black dress pants suit. It is fun for me.

    People used to dress very formal until about 10 years ago. Now, only a few people really dress up. Now it’s more semi formal. I guess it depends on your mood or if there is a special celebration.

    I have sailed on both royal & carnival ... on formal nights I just wear a nice dress & heels (church attire) & other nights I wear casual dresses or shorts & nice blouse & never had an issue ... you are on vacation... I think as long as you are clean & aren’t wearing a bathing suit or something with offensive sayings you will be fine ... going on my 8th cruise 🚢 in February... happy cruising

    I recently learned that camouflage attire is prohibited in many Caribbean islands, where camo is reserved for those in the military. If your caught wearing it officials can detain you.

    We enjoy dressing up and I always make an effort to spruce up a bit even on non-formal nights. That said, I usually do your trick Sheri, and re-wear the outfit on a port day or later in the cruise at a different restaurant. My teen boys think they look pretty cool on formal nights wearing a bow tie!!

    It kinda dulls the mood when I see cargo shorts, t shirts and baseball hats worn in the MDR. Personally, I think if you're not willing to put effort in to looking nice for dinner, head to the Windjammer. 🤷‍♀️ I love dressing up for dinner on the cruise!

      I agree! There is nothing worse then struttin out of your stateroom on formal night in a tux and evening gown feeling great to get to the MDR where people are in shorts and t- shirts it makes you feel awkward and out of place on a night that is supposed to be about dressing up and looking your best. If you don’t like that, the windjammer is a great option.

    For smart casual I’ve always have worn nice pair of Nautica cargo shorts (light khaki, dark khaki and blue) nice collard short sleeve shirt and casual shoes. Never had a problem. For formal night I’ve worn a pair of super dark lucky blue jeans, nice collard shirt (untucked) and blazer and dress boots or shoes. Never had a problem.

      The dress code states no shorts, but they are not going to stop you, at least on Anthem they didn't. I saw a few kids and young adults with "Bermuda" shorts in the MDR.

    I got questioned for capri pants (well over the knees and paired with a nice top, but they called them "Shorts") at an NCL dining venue 10 years ago. It sounds like things have changed. I do like getting dressed up for formal night and seeing all the other people dressed up. It's kind of a bummer that isn't as much of a thing anymore. For my next cruise, I"m more worried about my son though who wears only athletic pants and tshirts with cartoon characters! I guess he always has the option of going to the kids club :D

    There is a double standard, we feel. Our male friend was asked to change his shorts at specialty restaurant Chops. We had gotten back sort of late from excursion, and did not have much time, so chose not to go back to cabins to change. Meanwhile a young woman walked right by us with very skimpy short shorts and crop top. No one said anything to her. We watched their table. Our friend was very embarrased.🙄

    Unless you're leaving home in the middle of winter, packing and wearing jeans makes no sense to me on a cruise! For god's sake guys, at least go buy a pair of cheap khaki's at Wallyworld. It will cost you less than two bottles of beer on the ship. Oh, and ditch the "cargo shorts", and tank tops unless you're going to a mudbog at the county fair!
