| Those look great, Christina, but may I point out that color is acceptable? I love to have fun with my brightly colored dresses, and will especially do so for our Christmas sailing! | |

| I was assuming that a long black velvet dress would be acceptable for semi formal, but it says cocktail length or tea length?? Is a long dress still ok? My sister may get some dirty looks if not because Im not sure I can get her into a short dress. | |

| Ok so why is a suite semi-formal? What is more formal than a suite? So if I went to dinner in a suite on formal night they would toss me out? |

| You can wear a suit, Ron.... Directly from Cunard's FAQ: Formal: Black tie or formal dark suit for gentlemen. Evening dress or other formal attire for ladies.
Semiformal: Jacket and tie for gentlemen. Cocktail dress or trouser suit for ladies. No jeans.
Elegant casual: Jacket, no tie required for genetlemen. Dress, skirt or trousers for ladies. No shorts or jeans. | |

| Better yet: | The general atmosphere onboard is elegant, but relaxed. Although shorts and swimsuits may not be worn in the ships’ main restaurants, casual attire (including shorts) is welcome during the day at the Kings Court on QUEEN MARY 2 and at the Lido Café on QUEEN ELIZABETH 2. Swimsuits, brief shorts and exercise clothing should be reserved for poolside lounging, deck activities and the spa.
For shore excursions, you will need to pack a range of summer or warmer clothes, depending on your itinerary. Remember to respect the cultural dress norms of your hosts when visiting shrines, temples and churches. A lightweight raincoat, umbrella, walking shoes and a spare pair of glasses will always stand you in good stead. Don’t worry if you forget something as our shops onboard carry a wide range of leisurewear, formal clothing and
One of the great thrills of a Cunard voyage is the sheer glamour of the evenings. Evening attire for the ship’s main restaurants, effective from 1800hrs, will be specified in your ship’s Daily Programme and will be required to dine in the restaurants.
Formal: Black tie or formal dark suit for gentlemen. Evening dress or other formal attire for ladies. (A range of gentleman’s formal wear is available to hire or purchase onboard ship).
Semiformal: Jacket and tie for gentlemen. Cocktail dress or trouser suit for ladies. No jeans.
Elegant Casual: Jacket, no tie required for gentlemen. Dress, skirt or trousers for ladies. No shorts or jeans. |

If you eat dinner in your suite, then you can wear anything you want.
