Just in case anyone is still interested: We just got off the Miracle on March 3. There was an unusually large number of tuxes on Elegant Nights. (I mean unusual for my expectation of a Carnival cruise.) At the tables surrounding ours, there were almost all tuxes and suits on the fellows. Ladies were dressed like they were on Celebrity on Formal night. Of the very few fellows not dressed formally, the one I spoke to had gotten the days mixed up, and felt uncomfortable in his khaki's.

I theorize that the large group that made up much of those seating around us, might have influenced the clothing choice among them. And I didn't get a look at the farther back parts of the dining room. I will say that the later seating passengers looked even fancier than our early seating fellows.

So you never know what you're going to find once on board. All I can recommend is that if you are the type to feel uncomfortable and out of place, in the event that the others around you actually dressed elegantly, and you did not, then take the suit and gowns. I know I was very happy to be dressed formally.
