    Guidelines
    Evening Dress Code while on Board
    Crystal Cruises has updated and simplified the preferred Evening Dress Codes to two types: Crystal Casual and Black Tie Optional to be more in line with the continually evolving, more relaxed dress codes reflected throughout the world today. Please refer to the new and updated dress codes described in detail below. After 6 pm, casual daytime attire is not appropriate. Shorts and baseball caps are not permitted for men or women. If you choose to change your attire following the evening dinner and other festivities, please maintain a minimum style of dress in keeping with the dress code described below in Crystal Casual.

  • Crystal Casual: For women, Crystal Casual attire includes a dress, or a blouse or sweater and skirt or dressy slacks. Men’s Crystal Casual attire can include a sport coat, dress shirt, button-down shirt, open-collar or collared polo shirt and dress pants or smart trousers (No tie required).
  • Black Tie Optional: A Black Tie Optional evening offers our guests a celebratory opportunity to dress more formally on a special evening(s). For men, this includes a dark suit with tie, or tuxedo; for women, this includes a formal cocktail dress, evening gown or dressy evening separates. On Black Tie Optional evenings, we request at least a jacket to be worn by men and a dress, skirt or dress slacks and blouse or sweater to be worn by women.
