navybankerteacher Posted June 3, 2014 #27 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Formal night on RC is not all that "formal" - certainly not over-the-top prom type formal. Any good dresses would do - very few young girls would be in floor length - think going to church/synagogue, or visiting grandparents on a special occasion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue Do-Over Posted June 7, 2014 #28 Share Posted June 7, 2014 Not everyone is open to sharing clothing... but your daughters probably have friends who wore cute dresses to school dances. We also shop consignment and thrift stores specifically for cruise wear. My daughter says "if I had a sister, I'd wear her stuff, so what's the difference?" She has a closet full of sparkly little dresses that cost less than $10 each. You'd be surprised how many can be washed on the delicate cycle (we use the bags made for washing lingerie).

Donder1 Posted June 7, 2014 #29 Share Posted June 7, 2014 First, relax! We took our 14 year old daughter on her first cruise years ago. She wore a lovely gown and had her long hair done in up in the hairdressing salon. She looked great. Looking back, it was a bit overkill but it was so fun and she looked beautiful, as we did. Took lots of pics. On more recent cruises, we all dress up but not gowns, more or less evening wear. Let you girls decide. If you can afford it, nails and or hair at the ship's salon can make it extra special. Go California Chrome!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velvetwater Posted June 7, 2014 #30 Share Posted June 7, 2014 You could also buy lovely floaty maxi style dresses with embellishments that are full length. They are cool in the hot summer and are stylish enough for other occasions. They look good with heels or embellished dressy flats as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
