What to wear on a Cruise?

8/27/2017

If it's your first time cruising, you will find this article useful. Did you know that each cruising line has its own dress code? You better check that before departure! Here I'm showing you how to dress on MSC Cruises and how to combine trendy pieces with the etiquette. You can't go wrong with these tips on any other cruises.

Referring to this new seasons trend colors, I've seen a lot fo red shades on the runways, I paired it with silver, black, white and colorful pieces as well. You need to be dressed when you enter the bars and the restaurants. Evening wear on the ship requires suits for men and cocktail dress for women. Here is my selection of cocktail dresses, clutches, pumps and watches. Daytime you can stick to casual look, shirt, short comfortable jumpsuit, sandals and sneakers. We can call it as "Casual Resort Wear". The important thing is to feel comfortable and wear what you like best. You are on holiday!

Formal wear

Before choosing the right cocktail dress, you should be aware of your body type and what suits you. The fitted dresses below are perfect for those who are comfortable with the tight fitting, I was also collecting neck tie collar dresses with a loose fit.
