What is ';evening resort attire';?

I%26#39;ve seen this listed as the dinner dress code for many restaurants on the BI. What exactly does it mean?

What is ';evening resort attire';?

I%26#39;m guessing it%26#39;s similar to ';smart casual'; on Bermuda. Probably chinos and a collared shirt for men. Most places in HI women can get away with Bermuda-type shorts or nice capris and a nice top, or a sundress or similar.

So you mean men should not where shorts at dinner in these restaurants?

Men can probably get away with Bermuda-type shorts. My husband usually opts for chinos and an aloha shirt.

No shorts in any place that is half way nice

Shoes, sox, slacks, Aloha shirt... no tee or sports stuff....

At better places a blazer is nice too.....

How you dress will have an effect on your service level...... I can tell you this from experience..... Some will argue it wont matter.... I beg to differ..... I have seen it in action.

No shorts for ladies in the evening.....

FWIW, I almost always wear shorts/capris to dinner, even at very nice restaurants. Never had a problem with service or anything else. Maybe I just don%26#39;t frequent the high-class places. %26lt;G%26gt;

They will serve anyone here.....it is a tourist economy..... However, there are the feelings of other dinners and how you make them feel..... and contribute or detract from their evening out.

If you were in a nice place to celebrate a special event in your life and the persons in the next table wore a Tee shirt and cut off jeans.. and another in dressed in full Hells Angles colors. would you feel comfortable...???

Dining is to an extent theater and an experience.....for all the food and the ambiance are intertwined.... you are a participant in an experience.

If not why not get a costco roast chicken and a six-pack and eat in the parking lot.

If you go to any halfway nice place here show some consideration and respect for others who might want to savor a special dnner.

Clothes dont make the man or lady but they make a statment to others...

Gee, thanks, HD.

I guess you don%26#39;t have any Hell%26#39;s Angels in your circle. They can be perfectly nice people.

I just don%26#39;t think that someone%26#39;s experience is that seriously devalued by having to sit next to a table of diners in ';smart casual'; attire. If someone is that sensitive they might do better to shut themselves away and never have to deal with another human being.

%26gt;%26gt; If not why not get a costco roast chicken and a six-pack and eat in the parking lot. %26lt;%26lt;

IME, Costco roast chicken and a six-pack can be a lot better than the food in a snooty restaurant.

%26gt;%26gt; If you go to any halfway nice place here show some consideration and respect for others who might want to savor a special dnner. %26lt;%26lt;

Are you implying that my bare calves would give someone indigestion?

And so does attitude.

Good lord, HD, we%26#39;re talking about nice clothes, not filthy, smelly T-shirts and grubby jeans. Ease up. Even in snooty-rich lower Fairfield County, CT locals wear jeans (or shorts in season) to very nice restaurants. It%26#39;s just how it is in our society these days.

I%26#39;m with HD here--I like to dress nice for a special dinner, and wish that others did the same. But, I won%26#39;t let that affect my experience!

I usually wore a sundress %26amp; sandals and hubby wore an aloha shirt %26amp; longer shorts or khakis.

sorry.....Class is the ability to be mature and understand the scope of the situation. To asc in a responsible and dignified way.

Some get some dont....your call.

Those who think otherwise are in their own class.... and dinners who enjoy dining in an atmosphere of ambiance dont want to be subjected to persons who could care less.

Think of the scene in the ';Blues Brothers%26#39;

is that repulsive or attractive...?

Being on vacation is not a vacation from manners or consideration of others......
