Dress Code for Siena: What to Wear

# Dress Code for Siena: What to Wear

Siena is medium-formal by American standards, very casual by Italian standards. Pack accordingly.

What visitors ask

Day clothes?

Smart-casual. Avoid athletic wear, gym shorts, flip-flops.

Dinner?

No jackets required, but no shorts at upscale places (Le Logge, Taverna).

Churches?

Shoulders and knees covered. The Duomo enforces this.

Shoes?

Walking shoes with grip. Cobblestones are unforgiving.

Rain?

Bring a small umbrella and a light layer year-round.

Local tip

A linen shirt + dark jeans + leather sneakers works for any Siena dinner except a serious tasting menu.
