The dress code is Upscale Tropical / Island Chic. Guests are encouraged to embrace sophisticated Caribbean and Hawaiian-inspired fashion, including elegant resort wear, linen suits, tropical prints, flowing dresses, vibrant colors, floral patterns, and elevated island attire.

Yes! Escape to Paradise is designed as a fully immersive experience. From the atmosphere and décor to entertainment, cocktails, cuisine, activations, and guest attire, the evening will be inspired by the beauty and energy of the Caribbean and Hawaiian islands.
Is the dress code strictly enforced?
This isn’t your average night out — it’s Casino Royale elegance meets Riviera luxury. Guests are expected to dress to impress in formal evening wear inspired by the high fashion of today’s Monte Carlo and the iconic style of James Bond.
Ladies:
Floor-length gowns, cocktail dresses, or sleek modern eveningwear
Think red carpet elegance, high fashion, and luxury accessories
Optional: add a little sparkle or drama — this is your moment
Gentlemen:
Tuxedos or black-tie formalwear
Dark suits with a crisp dress shirt and tie are acceptable
Channel your inner Bond — sharp, suave, and timeless
This is your night to shine — we encourage guests to lean into the glamour and create an unforgettable atmosphere of style and sophistication.
