How formal are the formal nights on the Carnival Triumph? I've been on the Grand Princess but I've heard the formal nights on Carnival are not as formal...what should I bring???

Thanx!

Imagine you are going to a company christmas party and you'll be right on track or a nice wedding if that helps. The men commonly wear dark suits and you will see a tux here and there. Don't stress, your on vacation!

You see a lot of different things. I have worn niced black slacks and a glitzy top, or a plain black dress dressed up with jewelry. I have seen girls in their prom dresses and something "mother of the bride" would wear. It's not all that formal. Don't worry about it, just have a good time.

Carnival is not as lax as some would have you believe. The jokes about formal jeans and a clean teeshirt are just that, jokes. Compared to NCL, which has no formal nights. Princess, being a bit more upscale, and catering to an older crowd is much more formal. It is rare on Princess that you see anything but tuxedos and evening gowns.
