Titanic dressed ship for Good Friday 1912. The only time Titanic dressed ship.
Dressed ship means that Titanic flew all of her signal flags from bow to stern over each mast. The flags are flown in an exact order. Ships are only dressed for holidays and special occasions. Titanic dressed ship once, this was while the ship was in Southampton for Good Friday before she began her maiden voyage.
