You might want to do a search, but, generally, dress sandals are acceptable, and beach sandals are not. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Esp. if you have a dress. For men, just need decent pants, shirt with collar, no tie, socks, and shoes. I see it more as business casual attire than country club, but either works, I guess. Just more people go to offices than country clubs. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many, many threads about whether one can wear sandals in the MDR and specialties...some posts even have pictures attached. Lots of arguments and lots of chuckles. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emd138 Posted April 2 #17 Share Posted April 2 I bring dress shoes that I normally wear, but also remember to keep in mind ocean conditions. We only do R ships, and a lot of time, they are rocking and rolling. I wear black sneakers in those conditions, with a nice outfit, and it has always been fine. When you can't walk straight because you are bouncing off the walls, you have to do what you have to do. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redtravel Posted April 2 #19 Share Posted April 2 The only thing that I have seen them ban was shorts in GDR at dinner. Sandals are worn everywhere. Jeans are also seen everywhere. Most guests dress neatly. During the day, anything is ok. At night, guests dress casually most nights. You may see dressy clothing for the Captains reception. Relax and enjoy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EJL2023 Posted April 2 #21 Share Posted April 2 (edited) 24 minutes ago, vipro said: So do ppl wear jeans at night? Yes…allowed. They request no casual jeans in evening, which is a bit discretionary. Basically no holes, whitewashed, etc. those thas I’ve seen worn were fine. A dark wash with the lighter weight material which look a bit more dressier. This is for GDR and specialty restaurants. Terrace much more casual with shorts, etc. Edited April 2 by EJL2023 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually no one really cares what women wear except for the one wearing it and possibly other women. Men should never wear an open toed shoe to dinner. Socks with sandals is just plain stupid looking, but if that's the look you're going for give it a try. Bottom line is rubber shoes simply are not dinner wear, but I've seen lots of people doing it and nothing being said. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you are 90 years old wearing an overcoat on the beach in Miami, then you are good to go. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
