During the day casual clothing is typical, although shorts and swimwear are not permitted in the restaurants. Formal Night gets a modern luxury reboot. Say goodbye to Formal Night, and hello to Evening Chic. It’s your time to shine – your way. Get glamorous. Get chic. Be sophisticated. While dressier than Smart Casual, Evening Chic is intended to be less dressy than Formal attire. Evening Chic means that you can get glamorous and be sophisticated in your own way. If you would like to still wear a tuxedo or formal gown on Evening Chic nights, you absolutely should. The self service restaurants are casual.
