CRUISING71 Posted March 24, 2010 #1 Share Posted March 24, 2010 According to the Carnival dress guideline, you can wear jean to the MDR except for elegant night. But you can't wear cut off jean? Is cut off jean and capri jean are the same thing? Can I get away with nice, clean capri jean? Of course no hole or ragged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkbarbie Posted March 24, 2010 #2 Share Posted March 24, 2010 A cutoff Jean is one that has no hem. The ends would be unraveled. If your jean Capri or crops have a hem, they are fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cambrensis Posted March 24, 2010 #3 Share Posted March 24, 2010 Yes jeans are OK and capris are fine too. But -- at the risk of being flamed -- on our recent Pride cruise, I wore dockers/khakis on the cruise casual nites and asked my family to dress similar. Compromised with DS who wore neat, black jeans. But I liken this to going out to eat at a nice restuarant, and am old-fashioned enough to agree with those who think that it is ok to expect folks to dress nicely for dinner. That will vary by taste and mood I know -- but I would not wear jeans, cut off or otherewise, to MDR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisin'Trooper Posted March 24, 2010 #4 Share Posted March 24, 2010 I wear khakis every night to the MDR, even on Cruise Elegant night. The days of me hauling my tux around is over and we've done the elegant thing enough on a cruise. We recommend that everyone do it at least once - the experience and pictures are priceless. Nowadays you will see EVERYTHING in the MDR. Last week I saw more cut off jeans, flip flops, and tank tops than I ever saw and nobody says a thing. The oddest picture was a table for 6 next to us where 2 couples were in gowns and tuxedos and 1 couple looked like they literally just strolled in from the pool. To each his own I guess.

Carnival rules on :cut offs: is mainly refering to shorts. As long as your jeans are hemmed...not a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cb at sea Posted March 24, 2010 #7 Share Posted March 24, 2010 A capri is a "cropped" pant....cut-off jeans are NOT capris...you can have a denim capri...not the same as a "cut off" jean! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Carnival says it's okay, forget everyone else's opinions. You're on vacation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The4Cruisers Posted March 25, 2010 #14 Share Posted March 25, 2010 No flames from here. When I vacation, my Dockers and slacks take a vacation from me too! It's jeans and a polo shirt every night except "elegant" night. I bring a pair of Dockers, shirt & tie for that one evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relax and bring your jeans (that is if you know the difference between cut offs;)) Jeans have been allowed in the main dining room on Carnival for casual nites as long as we have been cruising, (12 years) before they actually put the word in the dress code.....I believe they finally added it so the nay sayers would stfu;) Our group has always worn nice jeans on casual nites and now some are wearing the allowed shorts.......relax and enjoy your vacation.

BallFour4 Posted March 25, 2010 #17 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I have cruised on Carnival since the Mardi Gras, been aboard the Freedom of the Seas (from the other guys) and have never in 34 years seen cut-off jeans. In fact, I haven't seen a pair of them on anyone in a really long time! How about a CC award for the first person to post a pic of someone aboard wearing them anywhere, regardless of dining preference :) . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjan67 Posted March 25, 2010 #18 Share Posted March 25, 2010 I wore a pair of black jeans with a fine line of sequins down the seam and a pretty blouse and heels.

If the bar of a parents dress code is lower than an establishments dress code, it's time to brush up. In this instance, it's refreshing to see the parents dress code is higher than this establishments dress code. And yes, jeans are allowed on casual night. They are only restricted on Elegant night.

mrpayroll Posted March 25, 2010 #24 Share Posted March 25, 2010 No reason to have to pack more clothes. Leave the jeans home and bring a pair of Khaki pants...You are going where it is 80 to 90 degrees. Khaki is a lot cooler than jeans...:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
