Do you guys think that spaghetti straps would be alright? All it says is "not strapless", and spaghetti straps are, in fact, straps. I just don't want the Cruise Director to hate me.

I wish I could see the other colors, but I love this, this, and this - all thin straps, but I wouldn't say that any of those are particularly immodest.

Dana and msbelle, looking at the ones you linked now!

I think spaghetti straps would be fine. But if you're really worried, again, pick up a shrug or bolero to wear with the dress.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I'd say straps is straps. It's not like spagetti straps are rare or unusual, such that you would be the first person to ever to wear them in public, so that they have never had reason to make a rule against them. I think I might lean toward the first one, if that scarf/wrap came with it - because a nice wrap makes a lovely gesture in the direction of demure.

In a pinch, you can improvise a shrug by tying the ends of a silk scarf together, like so [link]

ETA: the rest of a thought I'd left out.

Oooh. I have a couple of scarves like that. I may need to give that a try.

You guys are skippers!

PS People think the film has been reversed. So he's actually taking it off.

It's still adorable and made me laugh.
