VicRock Posted February 5, 2020 #1 Share Posted February 5, 2020 How formal are they? We prefer dining in the MDR & do not mind getting dressed up but we're not formal people. Husband hasn't worn a suit in 4 years. Our son does not have a suit & I see no reason to buy him one for a cruise, especially since he's growing like a weed. obviously we'll eat in WJ if they're truly formal but if not we'll plan for MDR.

Empress is no different from any other Royal Caribbean ship in this regard. Read any thread on CC on this topic - and there are many. RC does not enforce any sort of standards for how people are dressed, on formal nights or any other. Wear whatever makes you happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ptroxx Posted February 5, 2020 #4 Share Posted February 5, 2020 My formal night attire and what I wore every night in the MDR. just looks neat and comfortable. That’s all that matters. IMG_4966.MOV 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSteveK Posted February 5, 2020 #5 Share Posted February 5, 2020 Wait, I saw a tag on the hanger. You had that tuxedo shirt dry cleaned? That is formal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had it pressed. It was new with folds. And it’s only 17.98 for the entire bag. So why not. It is formal night. Don’t want wrinkles. dress to impress right. Lol.

We were on Empress 2 years ago to Cuba. As I recall the ship was much more casual than most. They might call it formal (or dress your best) but it looked like any other nigh in the MDR. IU agree with Merion Mom, whatever makes you happy will be OK. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
