Evening Chic – Celebrity Cruises

Say goodbye to formal night and hello to evening chic. It’s your time to shine….the way you want to. Be glamorous….Be chic….Be sophisticated. it’s time to dress to impress!

My husband wore his kilt on our recent cruise and I wore a blue dress with a sparkly skirt. It was fun to dress up! And the crew really appreciate that we made an effort!

What is Evening Chic? Evening Chic is dressier than smart casual but less dressy than formal attire. Each itinerary features one to two Evening Chic nights. Evening Chic means you dress to impress….be glamorous and sophisticated in your own way,. Wear a cocktail dress, skirt, slacks, or designer jeans with an elegant dress top or blazer. I’ve seen many women wear nice slacks and a sparkly top or a nice dress that could be worn to a fancy restaurant or wedding….they looked lovely!

Women should feel comfortable wearing:
A cocktail dress, nice skirt, dressy pants or designer jeans with an elegant top.
Men should feel comfortable wearing:
Pants or designer jeans with a dress shirt, button-down shirt or sweater
Sport coat/blazer and tie are optional

Of course, if you want to go all out and wear a formal dress or tux, that is totally up to you. This is your night to dress up as much as you want to!

What are designer jeans?

Designer jeans are nicer jeans (in the UK, they’d be referred to as “smart jeans”) with no holes, rips or tears. These are not your “let’s go hiking” jeans. You want to wear jeans that you can dress up a bit…..wear a nice top and shoes/heels for women and a dress shirt, button-down shirt, or sweater for men, with or without a jacket. Yes, there are “designers jeans” that have rips and tears, but these will not be allowed in the main dining room.

The daily program, which is delivered to your stateroom each evening for the next day and is also available at the Guest Relations Desk, will be your guide to the correct attire each evening. The menu posted outside the main dining room will note what the attire is for the evening.

If you do not wish to participate in Evening Chic, Smart Casual attire is acceptable for dining in the buffet and theater.

Don’t stress over it too much though. Just make an effort to look nice on those evenings. It is easy to dress up an outfit with a sparkly scarf, dressy top or even a pair of shoes.

Happy Cruising!
