Is this because your husband cannot wear sweats in the MDR's? Or are there other mitigating factors, just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry to hear that. Celebrity has gotten more casual but I don't think many people are wearing sweatpants to dinner. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve cruised Carnival a few times and enjoyed, but I agree, even then..... It’s probably best. I’d be horrified, Yes horrified!!! Sitting at dinner in my sharkskin suit, endangered snow leopard leather shoes with my private club ascot proudly showing, and my monocle dangling across my silk shirt, sipping my ‘special liquor’ with Babs and Bunny and comparing our last time we spent in the Catskills, tisk, tisk, tisk.......

We spent this xmas at a Savoy Hotel on Madeira - not a bargain place. Some younger people wore those sweat pants for dinner. While I wouldn’t even walk the dog in those, I know that some of them are more expensive than my favorite Boss pants/jeans. However, expensive doesn’t equal nice and class. So the dining room of the Savoy sometimes had the feeling of a food court. Quite some people mentioned it to the Maitre - to which he replied: “We hope for common sense in our guests...” DW and I frowned and said: the case is lost... 😂 Edited February 19, 2021 by Miaminice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should I be enlightened or would it be better for me to remain ignorant?🙄 I would describe sweats as a heavy cotton stretch fabric with a fuzzy inside surface. Tops frequently have a big logo on the front, possibly a hood. Pants have elastic waist and hems. Both have a baggy fit. Often light gray color. Designed to keep the wearer warm, thereby producing a sweat while jogging or warming up for team sports. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lily lady Posted February 19, 2021 #66 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Cruising is the only chance to wear nice gowns cocktail dresses. I love celebrity and like to dress nice.

Ya think there aren't " Goofs " that come into the MDR or go to the " Slug Fest on 14 " wearing pj's at breakfast ? It's the same people that wear shorts, tank tops, flip flops, and their baseball cap backwards . " Slobs " that can't or won't follow the guidelines of the cruise line. And, sweats , you know the baggy, sloppy type some folks have been wearing since the beginning of the pandemic , should not be worn into the MDR at dinner --- period. ( Ya, Ya , it's My Opinion ). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
