ON BOARD
We have a dress code on board, so we have created this overview to help you prepare.

OCEAN-GOING

Silversea has an onboard dress code after 6:00 p.m.

During the day, casual wear, similar to five-star resort sportswear, is suitable for daytime activities. It is recommended to wear flat or low-heeled shoes for deck activities.

Evening wear falls into two categories:

• 
  Elegant Casual: On casual evenings, ladies may opt for trousers, a blouse, a skirt or a casual dress, while gentlemen may wear an open-collar shirt and dress pants. A jacket is optional.


• 
  Formal Optional: A more formal attire may be chosen, such as an evening gown or cocktail dress for ladies and a tuxedo, dinner jacket, or dark suit with a tie for gentlemen. Alternatively, adhering to an Elegant Casual dress code is welcomed, but a jacket is still required for gentlemen in all indoor spaces.

Regardless of the daily dress code:

• After 6:00 pm, indoor spaces prohibit jeans, shorts, hats, caps, sneakers or flip-flop type footwear.
