Unless otherwise specified, all sizes in this post are listed in women's.
1. A puff-sleeve dress that can be worn anywhere from a backyard wedding to a backyard barbecue. It's graceful yet casual, classic yet trendy — truly an enigma to this world...
2. A ruched baby doll dress because you deserve to have a little fun. When's the last time you wore a dress like this and spun around? Probably when you were 7. Well, here's the adult equivalent, so go ahead, give us a swirl.
3. A mini slip dress for a simple option you can easily dress up with some tights and pumps. You don't have to go alllll out to party.
4. A paisley midi dress with a pointed hemline that was just made for movement. Your summer soirée surely won't be complete without this.
5. A swinging faux-wrap dress available in so many great prints, you probably should buy one in every color, bask in all the ways to style it, and wear only this dress to every party you ever have to go to from here on out.
6. A ruffled-hem dress that's definitely what Sixpence None the Richer had in mind when they sang, "Swing that spinning step, / you wear those shoes, and I will wear that dress." To this day, I'm not sure what a swinging step is, but you should buy this dress and maybe find out.
7. A flowy but fitted wrap dress because the ruffles alone will bring you joy every time you get up and move. If you weren't much of a dancer before, this dress will change that.
8. A ribbed V-neck skater dress in case you consider yourself ~too cool for school~ and up until this very moment, you thought you were too cool to wear dresses. Wrong, you can totally rock out in this.
9. A pleated-skirt midi dress that'll have you spinning around dramatically every chance you get.
10. A satin cowl neck dress because satin = pure elegance. Fretting over black-tie events is a thing of the past when you've got this gorgeous dress in your closet. In fact, you'll probably wish you had more weddings to go to just so you could wear it.
11. A high-low tiered dress for a completely, non-constrictive option that gives you the freedom to break out in whatever moves you want.
12. A fringe dress that'll have you feeling like a ~rebellious~ flapper, partying like it's outlawed. In all seriousness, if this dress doesn't make you want to spin around (and around and around) I'm not sure what will.
13. A flared dress because when it comes to party dresses, sleeves are just as important as body. And when it comes to deciding what kind of sleeves are the absolute *best* for dancing, the answer is definitely flutter (aka these.)
14. A prairie dress that's making me want to frolic in an open field somewhere. You can't tell me that you see this dress and don't want to immediately channel your inner Julie Andrews in The Sound Of Music.
15. An off-the-shoulder A-line dress because I'm pretty sure all you need to tango is a flowy dress with a nice lil' slit. It takes two to tango? No, it takes this dress.
16. A white midi dress so you can celebrate the return of summer dress szn the right way — in this dancing from dusk til' dawn.
17. A one-shoulder bodycon dress that'll be the first indication you're not afraid to take a risk. The second indication will be when you go for "the worm" on the dance floor.
18. A high-low chiffon dress because if you plan on ~dancing the night away~ at the wedding you'll be attending in the middle of July... you're going to need an easy, breezy, lightweight option.
19. A tropical print mini dress that'll turn any event into a vacation. And once you embody the ~carefree~ energy you thought only a Caribbean getaway could provide, you'll dance like no one's watching... no matter where you are.
20. A corset skort dress because unbeknownst to the naked eye — there's actually a full pair of shorts underneath!! If you wanna give everyone a show, but are worried about actually giving them "a show," these are for you. Pure freedom — proceed without caution.
21. A leopard wrap dress in case you're a bit shy and need an extra push to finally go out there and dance. You already have the fierceness in you, but animal print will really bring it out.
22. A surplice dress reviewers claim is made from an *exceptionally* soft and comfy material, which is exactly what we need for all the fun summer parties we have planned.
23. A satin split hollow dress because the subtle shine of the satin when the light hits will remind everyone you are the star of the show. Combine that with the mid-slit and flare hem? Okay, now you're not being so subtle. ;)
24. A dainty little dress in case you have a day-date planned but it unexpectedly lasts all night long. Luckily, this dress easily transitions from a picnic in the park to a night on the town.
25. An A-line fit dress that's simple in the way of being extremely practical, without excessive fabric, but also not simple at all thanks to its shimmery material.
26. A flared racerback dress in case dramatic "party" dresses aren't necessarily your thing. There's absolutely no rule that says you have to dress like you're going to the Oscars in order to dance. The show must go on.
27. A tiered dress perfect if you're not the best dancer out there. Just simply sway from side to side with the beat and the dress will do the rest for you. It'll appear as if you're just ~floating~ on your feet.
