Home/FAQ/ Does A Formal Dress Code Apply To Teenagers
Does a formal dress code apply to Teenagers?
On formal nights Teenagers are expected to follow the evening's dress code just as closely as adults.
On board ship Teens are still expected to wear formal dress when it is a formal evening. There may be a little more leeway in terms of the degree of formality for children and teenagers, however, they are expected to be dressed up more than they would be during the daytime.
For boys, polo shirts, smart shirts and dress trousers is acceptable for most evenings and girls can wear dresses, skirts and blouses or sweaters.
The type of clothing to avoid would be shorts, t-shirts, ripped jeans etc.
Most teens love the idea of getting glam for an evening but if they really don’t want to take part they can always opt for the buffet option where casual is acceptable.

Nicola Boyd is a Great CruiseKings Team Member and I Would Highly Recommend
I always contact Nicola Boyd who gives me a very personal experience, is quick to reply to my emails, who will look up prices for anything I request, even when I say it's only a tentative enquiry, and is always helpful and knowledgeable. When I come to booking she is efficient and gets us the best price possible (as far as I can tell - certainly beats other companies). I would deffo book with her again and over the past year I have booked 4 cruises/holidays with her. She is an asset to the CruiseKings Team and is always my first port of call (no pun intended lol) to get a price and book holidays.
