stroud green Posted June 24, 2015 #1 Share Posted June 24, 2015 First time cruise coming up in August with MSC on Poesia. We as a family are really looking forward to it. One thing that does worry me is the dress code. We are travelling from the UK to Venice by train and after the cruise back via Finland by plane for a short break there. So luggage space is at a premium. I am a bit fussy regarding dressing up in the evenings. I certainly will not where a tux or even a suit and tie. I am on holiday and want to relax. I totally understand the dress codes and am prepared to miss the gala evenings, not my cup of tea anyway. Will I be ok with just wearing trousers and collared shirts for evening meals. I do not wear a tie at work so I am certainly not going to wear one on holiday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted June 24, 2015 #2 Share Posted June 24, 2015 Welcome to Cruise Critic. Best to ask this on the MSC board here at CC, under Cruise Lines A-O. Although you have joined through the UK website, the majority of members of CC are in North America, and we don't have as much experience with MSC.

Dayenu Posted June 24, 2015 #4 Share Posted June 24, 2015 My husband wouldn't dress up. He brings a tie - it doesn't take much space, and if not tied tightly, it wouldn't press on his neck. He wears it with a collared shirt and a V-neck pullover. After dinner the tie is off. Nobody ever said anything, they watch out more if you sanitize your hands than what you wear.

Krazy Kruizers Posted June 25, 2015 #5 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Welcome to Cruise Critic. You can always go to the dinner Buffet or order dinner to your cabin -- called room service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FTLcruisers Posted June 25, 2015 #6 Share Posted June 25, 2015 We've sailed MSC twice and you will be fine with trousers and collared shirts - that's what my husband wore as did the other men at our table. Marianne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marianne +1 I wore nice golf shirts and pants for dinner with a shirt and tie (no jacket) on formal night. Others did the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
