Rare grouchomarx Posted November 8, 2017 #126 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Sorry. I still judge people by what they wear. I have a hard time Iiking people who are slobs and obviously don't care about themselves. Very superficial. I know some very wonderful slobs and don't understand why they are like that but respect that everyone is different and we don't always get it, we don't have to get it.

ColinIllinois Posted November 8, 2017 #127 Share Posted November 8, 2017 I think that after seven pages and eventually going off-topic, which is sooooooooo unusual on the forum, the OP has her answer. Not surprisingly, she hasn't returned to "the scene of the crime". Most likely she is busy with a sewing kit in hand. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

az-cruiser Posted November 8, 2017 Author #129 Share Posted November 8, 2017 For all the people that like to judge others clothing choices and the ones that have no fashion sense, I have decided to wear my $200 ripped jeans, and ripped pants everywhere on the ship, every day, every night. I actually went out and bought a few more pairs, just for the nay sayers here. While I will be put together nicely and wearing my expensive ripped jeans/pants, I am bringing my camera along to document my ripped jean journey. I am hoping to capture some of the nay sayers reactions, the smirks, appalled looks and see just how many places I can dine in with my ripped jeans. Look for my post in the next few weeks, it will be titled "My Ripped Jeans & I Sail The Escape". BTW, I'm old, which makes this even more fun!!!

az-cruiser Posted November 8, 2017 Author #130 Share Posted November 8, 2017 It's 100% ok to wear those jeans anywhere at lunch or dinner. If you get any flack, which you won't, just tie a kerchief or sash around the hole and you will really be a fashion icon. :cool: Awesome! Love this idea:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NLH Arizona Posted November 8, 2017 #131 Share Posted November 8, 2017 az-cruiser, don't waste your time taking pictures or worrying about what others think. Wear what you feel comfortable in and just enjoy your cruise and remember, it is all about you, not them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
az-cruiser Posted November 8, 2017 Author #132 Share Posted November 8, 2017 Ragged clothes are NOT 'super cute.' They are ragged and make people look like a street person. Funny thing about stupid questions: they get stupid answers. A street person? So not nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
az-cruiser Posted November 8, 2017 Author #133 Share Posted November 8, 2017 On the Epic this summer, one of our party was asked to change before they would let us in to Manhattan. That was a female wearing ripped jeans at dinner. So you can be pretty sure in that venue the dress code is enforced Bummer, thanks for the info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
az-cruiser Posted November 8, 2017 Author #134 Share Posted November 8, 2017 OP, I agree with others who have said you might not be able to go to dinner in those jeans, lunch should be OK. Try one night and see, if you have to change it will only take a few minutes. As for the fashion element, ripped jeans are not my cup of tea but then again I'm old and still waiting for Leisure Suits to come back into fashion. :D I just might do that, thanks!

Look I have my opinion of those, but I also recognize that you have every right to wear what you want, assuming rules allow. I just don't find them attractive.

Igrove Posted November 9, 2017 #142 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Ok, so every woman I know is wearing jeans or even pants that are distressed, holes and unhemed at the ankle. I have one such pair of nice white pants that have holes in the knees. ( I know, nice pants with holes,,but they are super cute!) Do you think they will let me in the dinning room for lunch with these on? Same pants, in black, do you think they would let me in the dinning room for dinner wearing them? Please no rude comments, it's a fashion thing. Thank you:o Lunch, yes. Dinner, no. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisin Oma Posted November 9, 2017 #143 Share Posted November 9, 2017 The OP was also asking about dinner. I do not know how old the OP is. The OP specifically asked about lunch. For every 10 times I’ve seen someone where something not allowed on the dress list, jeans at dinner, etc. I’ve seen 1 in 10 where they have turned someone away at the door for improper dress code. If you can’t find something in your wardrobe that is appropriate for lunch, give it a try. If you are turned away, go up to the buffet. You weren’t asking about dinner, but I do think they tend to be stricter at dinner versus lunch. I wouldn’t try it at dinner.

nibbers Posted November 9, 2017 #144 Share Posted November 9, 2017 You should be okay with those on for lunch as they are very lax with the dress code for lunch and breakfast.:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two Wheels Only Posted November 9, 2017 #149 Share Posted November 9, 2017 The dress code has been stated. How NCL interprets "overly faded with holes or tears" will vary. How NCL enforces their dress code will vary. Is it possible that the jeans won't be allowed for lunch? Yes, according to the dress code. Is it possible that those same jeans will be allowed for dinner in the same dinning room? Yes, if the staff doesn't notice or care. Technically, the dress code is the same for lunch and dinner but practically, dinner is often more strict in the interpretation of the code. Also, which dining venue on which ship will be a factor. What's allowed in a MDR on one ship may not be allowed in a MDR for another ship. Check the dailies. The OP shouldn't be surprised if every MDR or specialty restaurant doesn't let her in. The OP might (probably) be allowed in every restaurant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
