What to wear on a Cruise's formal night?

I am going on a Royal Caribbean Cruise the first week of July and I am not sure what to wear for the Captain's Dinner. I have this long black formal dress that I would love to wear. (Not many places you can wear a long formal dress) Is this too dressy?

just me
That would be just fine... I have worn long black dresses, low cut back, a little bit of a train...
You will find some people dress to the hilt, while others not so much....
Dress up, and have fun!! You will be glad you did!!!


tbugs
Presuming you are a woman, that is an excellent choice.

However, if you are a man, the choice of a long formal dress is not so good. In that case, a dark suit or tuxedo is the better choice.

A formal dress for the women.
A suit and tie for a man. Or slacks and a nice dress shirt with tie for men.

it is a formal dinner and your dress sounds perfect.
but on a cruise even tho it is a formal you can go casual. they won't kick you out.


Stareyes
The long black formal dress will be perfect. People wear dresses that are formal or just dresses that you would wear to a wedding. You will look fine in the dress.

Enjoy your cruise!

Not at all, in fact formal dress is recommended.
When we went on our cruise, to the two formal dinners, I wore a Tux, and my wife wore a long formal dress, and her fancy jewelry that she doesn't get to often wear.


hello_ms_moore
I have gone on a number of cruises. Years ago you had to dress formally to go to the "Captain's Dinner".

Today, for better or worse, "dressy casual" works.
although you certainly can still enjoy the rare opportunity to dress formally.

Enjoy your cruise, lucky you.

Your black formal is perfect. People will be wearing beaded dresses and chiffon gowns. Most people get very dressed up.

Royal Carib. is a fabulous cruise line. You will love it.

Perfect dress for formal night. It's not to dressy.

Have a wonderful cruise.

Anything goes from cocktail dresses to formals. I've done both and it may depend on the length of cruise and room in your luggage. I've been taking two-piece outfits lately so I can change the tops and still bring a really nice dress (long) for the 1st formal night. After that I usually wear something like a nice suit or cocktail dress. Evenings I dress as I would going out for dinner at home. But if you're too tired, just go to the buffet and wear what you'd like.

If the event is 'Black tie' dress to match.

I have been to several cruises years ago and yes, the last night almost everyone was dressed very formal (it was required, anyway). So, do not worry, wear your lovely dress and enjoy it (the dress, the event will be a bore).

Nothing but a tie!!
